I believe he is referring to a "walk behind power mower" and not an old fashioned spinning reel mower.
Bowles Services (352) 292-4272 does our lawn and about 10 others in the area. They offer an
option for a push (walk behind) normal mower vs. the large ride-ons that can often tear up your lawn
if not handled properly when they turn. Also, our property is partially "hilly" and the push mower really is the only way it can be done in those areas. We have a small 2/2 Colony with a relatively small lawn so the difference was only a couple bucks for the "push vs. rider" option.
