At first I thought it was three horse hitch. But it is a double tree so the team is off to the side with a more even pull. Smart thinking. [Reply]  [No Email]

The center horse and right horse work a double tree while the left horse is spread out a little further to offset the pull. We have used this setup for years. [Reply]  [No Email]

Something didn't look right, and I now see the over lap of the photo with the right, and center hook up. Good thing I didn't hitch them up. Of course like my Granddad would say the horses are smarter then the kid. Ha HA [Reply]  [No Email]

We had a corn binder like that one but the horse pole had been shortened and a tractor hitch installed. Used the corn binder and Papec ensilage cutter until the early 1950s when Dad bought a NH forage harvester with a Wisconsin V4 air cooled motor, false front unloading wagons and NH silo blower.
