    "Spiral of Death"; you mow on four sides instead of just one and the job gets done quicker.

    You're mowing the same amount of grass either way.

    Re: Your Lawn Preference

    HowStuffWorks "The Best Way to Mow Your Lawn"

    "Mow in overlapping horizontal or vertical lines to get the most out of your mowing time, never in circles or spirals. Most experts also advise changing directions every couple of mowings. If you've mowed in horizontal lines for a few weeks, change it up and mow in a vertical pattern. This encourages a more natural lawn appearance."
    I don't think I'm alone when I say I'd like to see more and more planets fall under the ruthless domination of our solar system.

    Can we ask NoLookPass? Because his opinion is the only one that matters on this subject.

    Sometimes I put a bullseye in my backyard. I start in the middle, and pick a pivot point. I rotate directions at that point so it is still striped.

    Wife loves it.
