After 3 years of clearing trees, cutting vines/briars, disking burned ground, and mowing goat weeds, we finally got our first cutting off what we call the �corner�.
This is the first time hay has ever been cut and baled on this pasture.
It is about 95% Bahia grass with very little goat weed and black-eyed susan; no grass burs.
Used �Big John� the 55 70 diesel and the JD 350 mower to cut the Bahia grass.
Came back with �Vernon� the 56 70 gas and JD 640 hay rake to put up in wind rows.
It was the first time we used �Vernon� to power the Krone 125 baler.
It was also the first time we used the Krone 125 to make 4x4 bales.
Both the tractor and baler did really good; only one bale �clogged� and had to be unrolled and baled again.
This is the first bale. We ended up with 26 bales.
Somewhere up there my granddaddy Howell is smiling.
