Tyler the PT on these with the big belt driven blade carrier do it with ease, sure I stalled it a couple of times, it is just hard going pushing it through the grass and I'm doing it a bit tough at the moment waiting on a hip replacement. Yes I would not have attempted it with a normal 18 inch PT. On the areas I have got slashed down I may give a PT a go to get rid of all the remaining kikuyu runners, then maybe spray it
