Swath grazing is a great idea and works well for most of my neighbours. I have no cattle now so I don't worry about these concerns.
One caution: Have a backup plan if we get one of those "old fashioned" winters that I recall back in the early "40s" when snowdrifts were ten feet high or more.
Having most of your feed under tons of snow won't be any picnic.
Of course with our "global warming", we will not have to worry about minor details such as winter.
