Countax can cut in the wet, and has a sweeper-roller so you get
stripes. Mine is currently on the blink but by and large it has
been a good machine: cuts well in very high or thick grass, doesn't
mind the wet. www.countax.co.uk. Only worth it for a large surface
of course.


Outrageous of course, but I have found many times in past winters when
the grass is soaking wet and too long, I've waited for a really heavy
frost and gone over the grass with a fly-mo. You don't churn up the
mud, you don't sink in up to your ankles and it has never seemed to do
the grass any harm.

Now on my golf course, well, not mine, but my club, they don't
actually cut during frosts but we do use the greens all year round and
they are cut frequently all year round. And they're good.
