Don�t want to spoil your soup and don"t want to get no arguement started and I sure don�t post here much just like to read what other fella�s post. One of these day�s you should take a trip to the Midwest I have a neighbor he is a commercial hay bailer you should see this gentleman�s family bale hay they have no hired hands they make their yearly living at this I seen them start on a square section here which is a mile by mile 3 to 4 mowers (rotary) depending on the type of field mostly just native grass here where I live they cut 7 day�s a week it�s nothing to go to their house ask for one of their sons to help you work cattle or something maybe build fence they just say oh he�s in the hay field and he want be home till 1 o�clock in the morning or so till he is replaced on the mower with his younger brother or whomever I�ve seen them in the summer time when the weather is so hot 100 to 104 degrees put a baler in the field right behind the mower almost to keep the hay from burning up one rake and one baler I believe it is a new Holland center feed type one of the newer ones one Vermeer v- rake side delivery type I have actually seen the bales of hay where you could jump from bale to bale all over the field. The folks don�t haul or move it from the field that the owners responsibility but I tell you what I bet they all bullsheeeeet aside they bale more than 5500 bales when the weather is right in 8 hours if he has a break down in the field they have another baler setting in the field ready to go it�s they�re living and it�s what they like to do I guess, don�t want to start no argument I�m just saying what I know is facts it�s nothing for these folks to be up at 3 or 4 in the morn getting ready to go to the hayfield if the weather is right it�s nothing for these boy�s to get off the tractor and still want to work I�ve even had them to borrow one of my ole one ton �s because they didn�t have a ride home to get they�re truck to haul hay when they finished riding the mower or what ever other piece of equipment, we don�t have many equipment stackers here and most folks have gone to round bales and these folks have adapted but round or squares I would like myself to know how much these folks bale a year if you actually new the truth you would probably call them a liar until you seen the results I asked the guy one time and and he said he guessed he put around 52000 round bales last year (2003) and I don�t doubt that one bit from the way they work no argument here just telling you what I know. Also they have been baling hay for the last 30 something years the same family they have baled hay for my grandpa my father and now me I put up around 450 to 500 round bales a year and it seems like they�re here one day and gone the next. Sorry for the long post
