The Final Verdict 

There’s no right answer when it comes to choosing either a 9 HP Billy Goat or a 13 HP Billy Goat blower. Both these blowers are more than competent and can handle almost everything.  

If you’re looking for a blower for personal use it’s better to choose the more compact 9 HP version. However, if you have a commercial need that requires heavy-duty work, we recommend the bigger and better 13 HP Billy Goat blower.
