I think everybody stacks hay differently, whatever works best for them. We have our own system that we have used for years and years. Works pretty good and I don�t ever remember losing any bales. Each layer is tied in together by alternating what way the bales are faced. It is hard to explain but the pictures give some idea maybe. We also have very short backboards, maybe 3 ft tall at most, and the way we stack you don�t need them at all. The only bales it even touches is the first three laid crossways on the back of the wagon. It is nice to have it to push those up against hard to start the load, but it isn�t needed. We stack so that all 4 sides of the load gradually work in towards the middle the higher up you go. We use 8x16 wagons and put 124 bales on each load, 6 layers high. I agree with other posters, I would not recommend making the backboard lean back any.

One of us would sit on the left fender (away from the clutch) and other would sit on the gas tank and hold onto the crankcase breather pipe.
