That's not last minute haying. Last minute haying is when you can't see the windrow because the snow is blinding you!

I agree on the 770. Dont see too many of them.

It would be nice to have green grass, not brown and feeding hay. It will be a long time till spring! That is the way it is in south west Missouri. Nice tractors you have.

Is that a 14' Hesston 1014 you are cutting with?

What model rake is behind your 770?

I bought a 14' Hesston 1014 about 2 weeks ago, and now I'm shopping for a rake to match it.
Any suggestions?

yes it is a 1014 plus 2 a double sickle unit, and the rake is a 10 wheel 3pt model, it works fine on large field with gradual turns, if you have sharp twistys I recomend a pull type unit wheel or rollbar type as they will rake around corners well, also if you go with a wheel type I perfer a high-capicity one as they handel large windrows with less bunching cnt

Thanks for the info.
A lot of my hay ground is hills, so I need something that will work good going over terraces and around odd shaped fields.
I was considering a "pull type" V-rake of some sort.
I used a H&S high capacity rake this summer on a couple of cuttings and really like it, but the fella sold it to another neighbor (due to health issues) before I found out it was for sale.
