John Deere 4044M Bushhogging-brushhogging an overgrown lot

This is an owner's first test run of a rough, rusty brush hog (no slip clutch, just a shear bolt) mounted behind a JD 4044M, mowing an overgrown roadside lot he's never cut before. It's not a 4044M feature review, there's no spec talk or detailed operation breakdown, just a rough-and-ready first pass, some worry about hidden culverts and tires, and a candid gut-check on whether the mower holds up.

Posted by the RSD Outdoors channel, an owner-operator sharing an unpolished, first-hand test rather than a produced review.
