Bush hogging in Conway is farm-country work. This side of Horry County still carries old pasture, hay ground, and field edges from its tobacco and corn years, and all of it grows the moment it is left alone. We mow it with a rotary cutter on a Bobcat T300 track loader. Grass, weeds, briars, and woody stems up to about thumb size go down in one pass, and the field is usable the same day.
Category 5 Land Management runs out of Longs, about 18 miles up the road. Mowing is the cheapest stage of keeping land open, and the point is to catch fields before they cross into brush. The service itself is laid out on the main bush hogging page.

Around Toddville, Red Hill, and the US 701 corridor south of town, the pattern repeats: a field stops getting cut, broomsedge moves in, then briars, then sweetgum and volunteer pine. In this climate that slide takes two or three years, not ten. A mowing pass once or twice a year is what stops it at stage one, where it is cheap.
Fields that already slid are not mowing jobs anymore, and pretending otherwise just tears up a cutter. Ground with established saplings needs the mulcher head first, which is the work described on our forestry mulching in Conway page. After that reset, mowing holds the line from then on.
Plenty of Conway land is kept for living on rather than farming: a few acres with a house, horse paddocks, a pond lot, a back field held for a kid to build on someday. Those parcels need the same knockdown. Mowed paddocks carry fewer weeds into hay, and a clean field edge keeps briars from working into the fence.
Fence lines that have already gone under get opened back up as their own job, and paddocks or grazing ground being brought back to real grass belong under putting a pasture back in grass. Mowing then keeps both from sliding again. Most owners settle into a spring and late-summer rhythm.
We mow across the Conway ZIP codes 29526, 29527, and 29528, from the river tracts out to the farm ground past Cool Spring and Poplar Forks. Soft ground near the Waccamaw favors our tracked machine over a wheeled tractor, and after a wet stretch we time cuts so the field carries the machine without rutting.
A standing schedule is the cheapest way to run it, and one visit can cover a field, the lot beside the house, and the lane to the back gate. The rest of what we handle around town sits on the rest of our Conway work. Send the address and the estimate comes free.

Once briars and saplings take a pasture, mowing cannot bring it back. The fix is mulch first, then mow on a schedule. Here is the sequence and why it holds.
