Is this the fastest way to snow plow? Plowing with a broom on a John Deere 1585 (1500 series)

I have a JD 1500 series front mount mower, the 1585 with AWD, that I purchased a snow thrower, 72" rear discharge mower deck, and a HD 60" broom with...I find I almost always use the broom for snow removal. The broom allows me to travel at a fast speed but it starts to get overwhelmed if the snow is 4" deep or more, so, sometimes it requires multiple times out plowing. The broom is gentle on the driveway, but I would not recommend for gravel driveways as it will remove your gravel quickly. As a bonus, the broom is very handy to clear leaves with in the fall. Take a look for yourself and see what you think. If we start getting tons of snow I will put a video up of the snow thrower too. driftlessinwi
