Good haying my friend.....you still running green balers? NH stackers?

Are you running accumulators or stackers? Everyone down here runs accumulators and loads on flatbeds with skid steers. But we sell out of the field too. I only see case and deeres down here. We plan on getting into square bales in the next years but it seems to be a better investment in irrigation.

Thanks Mike yeah we are runnin 2 348JD and one 1069 stacker and one 1089 . We cut some tifton85 yesterday and today it was so thick u cudnt go over 5 mph with the windrower. No tellin how many rolls it will make.
Colby we just use the stackers. All of our fields right here at our barns. Todays field is the furthest one we have.

Nice hay and field.
I have to follow terrace outlines and the contour of the land. I would not know how to act n a field that flat and nice.

[Colby]

Yeah I guess we have some ok fields out here. Most of them are around 50 acres, tree less and flat. Smooth as glass too.
