i can't do it nowadays without drawing blood.  pubes grow so far up the shaft (they sometimes garrote my flaccid glans) and beanbag is so saggy & wrinkled I can't pull it taut enough to level the field for a bloodless trim.

We may be at breakfast cross purposes.

That is not food for thought thought for food.

A neighbour of mine wears big safety goggles to mow his lawn. It never stops being funny so I'm always delighted to see him. 

I'm answering the OP and definitely have no idea what safety precautions he takes for other clipping tasks, I dread to think.

It’s a good practice Snowfox.

I had a pal who suffered a serious injury to his eye when he was using a petrol rotary mower and a stone ricocheted from out of it, hit a wall and struck him.

Also cases of eyes being injured during inattentive mowing under tree branches etc.

Brrrap why don't you just Veet for Men? It's breathtaking.

Brrrap same here, and then I discovered this:

The SackSafe (TM) blade is amazing and Mrs Face's feedback is excellent.

So did the hawk get the snake in the end? I can't tell from the writing

Is 'The Hawk' a nickname for Mrs Face?

Mrs Face "down there" before Balls trimmer.

Mrs Face "down there" after Balls trimmer.

They're the same picture...

I'm always looking down whilst mowing to avoid stand in something left on the lawn by the dog or the deer.
