Wright Stander ZK 72 Dual Wheel, 3 Reasons Why I Bought This Mower 

You can't go wrong with a Wright. Those are manufactured in my backyard of Frederick, Maryland. I drive by there facility almost daily , have always wanted to stop in there but never have. I think you'll love the mower.

Have had my Stander X 52” for 792 hours now and just changed the strings on the standing platform... They are built tough.. I am 285 pounds let me tell you they are built tough!

I don’t watch your channel often. I do remember when you first started doing RU-vid. You have grown so much...personally and in your business. Your camera presence is a lot better than those awkward first years ;) Wishing you the best this year!

I was hoping you would buy it.

That stander is a beast 👍🏻 good mower choice for the job ! Right tool for the job !

Good choice the Wright stand up are awesome I've had one for a while now and hills are no problem

Great purchase !! I watch a guy in Texas that has a smaller Wright . He has had it quite a while & loves it. 👍👍

It's nice to see a business owner concerned about his employees safety, not just what an accident might cost them. I always enjoy your videos and your willingness to share your experiences good and bad. I know you will put the new machine to good use.

Congrats, I do love my Wright when its all functioning like it should. Nothing will even compare to it on hills etc. I have the 61" WZK. One thing I will say, mowing rougher terrain, find a way to get your hydraulic hoses moved away from the parking brake mechanics behind the engine. My hoses almost have a hole worn through them because as you bounce around they rub on the park brake "bar" that runs across there. I'm talking about the hoses that have the spiral wrap plastic stuff on them. Just a heads up!

Sweet! Congratulations Brian! Good luck this season!

You made a great choice getting this mower,stander is definitely the way to go.

Congrats on the new mower... Looks like a beast. Keep care of it and even if you don't keep your new large contracts your resale should still be up there....

Wright on Top Notch is 72" large and in charge. Enjoy you new productivity.

Great video. Look into if your drone has 'tripod mode' which will smooth things out a ton during flight and limit speed (which makes smoother filming).

... Glad you purchase it...

You sure do like yellow!! I ride red but i think that was the smartest choice you could have made. Congrats man.

Used Ventracs come in around the same price as your standing mower...But still it is a pretty huge investment, plus any machine that operates on a hill can tip over regardless of design.. Probably better to , as you said, have a machine where you can step off and avoid serious injury.

They had a ventrac 4500 at the 2019 county fair for $19300. Plus mower deck. However it had dual wheels also. Brand new machine. Good luck with the wright mower.

Glad to see that you made a good purchase for your new business direction. I think that it was a good choice for the direction of your new jobs this year.

Great choice for those types of accounts. Also seems like good value for the money compared to the other choices.

best of luck with the new properties and mower, ever thought about using a pull behind mower? We have 8 acres here at our property and we purchased a 115inch ProMow pull behind reel mower for around $1300 about 5 years ago. We pull it around with our 700cc diesel artic cat atv, the reel mower cuts nearly as fast as we can safely pull the thing across the field. Its 3 reels wide, the outer 2 fold up for easy transportation. We mow all season with it and sharpen the blades about 2x a year, takes about 20 minutes with valvelash compound and an electric drill to turn the reel backwards.

Watch going off curbs hard on the wright the bolts that hold the wheel motor will shear after repeatedly coming down hard,ask me how I know!!lol

That's a nice mower. Do you think you could do more mowing videos

Good grief, wow! Yea, you did the right thing. Right machine for the jobs. Congrats!

Seems like you made the right choice. Since it’s for major Commerical property’s that aren’t fully for looks then I think you did good. I would be afraid if it weighs too much to leave imprints in the yard.

If i ever grow to the point i need a larger mower this is on my list to check out. Good luck man keep grinding.

Best 72 mower ever built!

$11500, hell yeah! Congrats on the new machine. Looking at those slopes etc, you made the right choice. The Hustler 104 can be out cut by a 72 HD Super Z with flex forks etc and be used on more properties so Im glad you didnt go down that route. The ventrac looks an awesome machine bt its a long tractor. The Stander will run rings around it! Ive also heard of over heating issues. It was a while ago I admit but still, with hills, clippings in the air etc comes heat. Im glad you can still use the 12" wheels on that stander though. May never need them but always good for the option. I cant wait to see it cutting 3 week rain soaked growth! I still think you should put an OCDC on it though. Working around traffic, especially on highways, you need to be able to close the chute off when shooting towards the road or you'll get hit with insurance claims! If I had access to Wright mowers, I think I'd get a 54" stander of some kind for mowing my own house!

EFI will be nice on hills. Carbs can have issues on steep grades. Best luck to you.

I miss that mower thing is a BEAST

Oh and I subscribed. Great content man. I'm a fellow lawn care foreman and I really enjoy your videos.

Really good buy man! I’m really looking forward to videos with this mower in it!

A safety thing on the Wright mowers is that if u forget to put the parking brake on on a hill it will slowly creep down it will not just go down the hill

Glad to see you made it to the Wright side!!! Looks awesome man. Get some!

Awesome mower, coolest one I ever seen

best decisiom ive seen you make...i have a 61 n ita amazing

I have a 37hp vanguard on my Ferris and love it

You will not be disappointed. 👏👏👏👍

Sweet mower!! Best of luck with it and your business this season👍👍

Awesome mower. I dont think you can go wrong. I have put 60 hrs on my JD " Which is pretty much a wright mower and love it. I went with JD over wright for dealer purposes. Great machines .Put a small trash can on the deck and get a grabber.

Looks awesome man! Been talking to Ed from Wright about getting some more of their mowers here in Australia

Love the Wright

Thats a beast, also looks sick👍👍👍

I love that mower!! Good buy!

I wonder how many acres you could do with two of those machines. Nice purchase.

YEAH BOY. YOU A WRIGHT MAN NOW!! 😄 💪👏 Got to love that 0%. I got that with both my 52 and 36 Wright Intensity's

awesome looking mower-- looks like a TANK

really considering one. I have 2 bobcat quick cats size 52 & 61 but I think having this 72 inch and a bobcat 32 inch would be an ideal setup for me.. good video and $1k add on for the dually.?!

I think you did good. That's a lot of machine for 11k. Safety first.

Smart business owner. NEVER PASS ON THE FREE MONEY!!!!!!

That's an amazing machine Brian, good choice.

Lmao it does suck a lot when your on a sit down and you constantly have to get up to grab something in your mowing path and then sit back down again hahah sucks a lot when it's consistently happening. But this mower man especially the price you got it for was a smart investment to your company. So I believe you made the right choice

They had one display in Cape Coral FL last week

Great buy, that thing is a beast!

I have seen many buying this for around $14,500.00. Then paying the maintenance gas cut guys only $55.00/day from 7 to 19. If it rain, no pay for the day.

Once you grow a little bigger it might be an option to buy a ventrac and have a dedicated landscape crew running it. You could then do mowing and landscape at the same time!

as long that it does what you want it todo and it lasts thays all you need looks Cool.. Enjoy your new Toy.. have great one

Standers are the best mowers

Thats a monster mower

I can certainly understand why you chose that mower. Seems like a great bang for your buck. If you can buy 2 or three of these, for the price of one of the 104's...I think you made the right choice. Does the dual wheel option cause more turf damage in the turns? I'm guessing so, but then again...its bought for wide open space mowing, so damage is probably minimal.

Brian I wouldn't trade my scag walk behind butiwanna try the scag stand on and see what it feels like but I have a bad back that I blew out in 08 but my son likes shifting on the fly and blew all my gears out of my walkbehind

Nice mower good choice

Gotta love the highway treasures off of Kellogg and west lol.

Can u put the link in the description plz! I really want one

With accounts like the roadsides, I'm guessing downtime and delays are NOT an option. So my question is, when the Wright is down, (since you only have one), what's the backup plan for getting the work done?

I just bought one, how is it going 6 years later?

Congrats on the new purchase

Good purchase good engine

I already want one of those machines.

One word.. Badass!

Can you do a comparison video between the scag and wright cut quality and over all build

Right On 👍🏻 Brian .... Great Purchase 🙂

Awesome mower how do you like the mower

So how is the durability 1 year later?im sold on ferris for my needs but it will be good to hear your input

Congrats on the purchase Brian that is a cool looking mower

That thing was made for you bro

You bought it now that was a good buy right there . . #switchingtoallwrightmowers

Congratulations. Your better off than the ventrac

you should have got a walker 74 inch deck

Diggin the NEW Mower, buddy.

I do love my Ventrac but I can see the budget worry!

Good choice

So if i'm hearing right you gonna have two of those right??🤣😋😉😉😎 Great buy Brian 😃

Wow! what a mower, cant go wrong with a wright lol

Hm! The 37 vanguard without the Remote reservoir / filter option though? ? I would have DEFINITELY opted for that... Kinda thought twas standard on that engine option....

i saw your walker purchase n i was like what is he dooiiiinnn

What a beast. I’m very interested to see how that Vangard engine treats you.

Congratulations

Now that some time has passed how is the mower holding up? Is the ride decent on rough ground?

Hi um just wondering we want a 48 inch zero turn what tractor do you think, love your vids by the way

Briggs n Stratton motor the best

How much is the bagger attachment for that beast?

I got my eye on it!

I will say this about the Hustler it's expensive. Hustler has been trying to get me to purchase for years. Cost just out weighs productivity.

Nice man keep on working and maybe sometime u Can Get a ventrac 👍🏻

Screenshoted it my profile picture from one of your videos or Instagram post

I knew you would buy them brian

Can I add a second wheel on my toro grandstand too or are the wheels together?

Next best thing to ventrac??

Badass mower man!!
