    I know I had seen this on a post in the past but I now have a middle reel streaking when we cut my fairways.

    Here is what I know;
    It is not the reel itself since we moved it to the outside position and the middle reel again was streaking.
    It is not the height of cut since we reset them to make sure

    It looks like it washboards to some extent and does not throw the grass out as far as the other front reels does.

    I will be moving the reel motor from the center to the outside today to eliminate the reel motor being the problem

    Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    It almost seems like a hydraulic issue but only with the center reel.
    What else can we check to try to locate the problem?

    Sounds like a reel motor since it is just that cutting unit that is acting up.

    The problem was the reel motor. We swapped it out with the one on the end and the problem moved with the motor.
    Thanks for the help everyone.
