What Does Brush Hogging Do

Bush hogging, also known as brush hogging, is brush cutting or rough cutting mowing. It’s a form of landscaping that eliminates heavy brush to prepare land for farming, hunting, development, and a variety of other uses.

Why is it called bush hogging?

The term “bush hogging” originated with the company that invented the first rotary cutter, the Bush Hog®. We use the brand name to describe this type of mowing much in the way we might call performing an Internet search “Googling.” Rotary cutters are heavy-duty mowing decks that you tow behind tractors.

Will a brush hog cut grass?

Can you use it for simply mowing large lawns? The answer is yes! A brush mower is a great tool not only for your toughest brush, but also for mowing particularly tall or wet grass.
