    the more the better i'd imagine just go in a lower gear in the field beats going around the place like a F1 car, maybe 2 x 8fts for heavy first cut and 3 if its lighter, what ever machine you choose just make sure its making the swath to match the pickup width that will be more important than weather its 2 or 3 swaths rowed up really

    Get swarth made nice and narrow or on the corners it will drag. 2 x 8' sounds good. I usually get 2 x 10' into 1 but on the headland you end up with 3 x 10' swarths in 1 which is too much in first cut. Which ever you do it is way better than picking up 1 swarth
