    Big Buds in their natural habitat: Big Sky Country. Beautiful. Lots of little, helping hands. What fun!

    Big Bud Serial #3 pulling that planter that I cannot name brings back memories. You see, my father apparently had something to do with the name of that company. It goes back to an old scribbler company. . . . my father left this earth in 1997. . . . I love seeing you keeping the old Big Buds running. It is a tribute to your family to keep them running. Your mechanical ability is amazing. Have a great year. We are praying for rain for many farmers. I am retired in Calgary, Alberta. We also have wildfires in this province. It takes a lot of courage to be a farmer. Blessings from smokey Canada. 😊

    We were in Shelby about 2 weeks ago, and went to those "hills" afterwards. We visited 9 national parks on our road trip, and between 2 of them, we ended up going right by your place! We stopped for gas in Shelby. Beautiful part of the country.

    Thanks for another great video.
    It was interesting and enjoyable.
    Sorry you are having tractor and seeding cart problems. Glad you had the little bud to switch to and the other seeding cart.
    Go get em now. Time to get the wheat seeds in the ground. Problems at seeding time can be frustrating. You worked your way around them and off and going again. Hang in there.
    Bob, thanks for rundown on where the new houses sit and their views of the area. Always thought the mountains were closer. Interesting.
    Always enjoy you talking about the farm and the area.
    Appreciate the drone footage nick. You shoot some really beautiful areas around the farmstead. Thanks.
    I am hoping the parts you need for the seeding cart and the big bud hydraulic pump are correct when you get them. Got to be frustrating when the wrong part shows up.
    You have my blessings and prayers for rain and more moisture for your crops. God watch over you and the future crops.
    Glad the kids had the opportunity to ride in the tractor. Know that is hard and trying to run equipment. Appreciate the time you give them with the farm equipment. They never forget it.
    About it I guess. You all take care and be safe.
    Thanks for everything Welkers!!!! My prayers watch over you.
    The Iowa Farm Boy.
    Steve.

    That drone footage of the Series 1 is AWSOME. It’s very cool to see old American Made iron back to work, tho we have a much smaller farm we still run a Farmall 656 gas as a field tractor and it’s still runs great after 2 overhauls and 10k plus hours.

    I have to be unique we've had as I call it drilling done, we run a small farm just 3 fields of wheat, oats and soybeans. Waiting on the crop to grow now. In the meantime we are clearing out this wooded area on our land so we can have better access to our fields. Can't wait to climb up in our old combine.

    awsome show guys. it still amazes me that the trackers steer themselves. i first encountered that when i was hauling fertilizer in a nurse truck. that was back in 2006. i'm not a farmer but when i saw the crops that grew from the stuff i hauled, it was a great sense of joy. i had a part in that. man, what a feeling. i envy that lifestyle. anyways i cant wait to see the eagle rig and the others at work as well. thank you for your work. until next time... peace

    I feel like NOONE has done more to keep Big Bud relevant and out there than you guys. In light of them now producing NEW Buds after all these years it would be really great if that was recognized and you were able to get a new model for your farm...FIRST OFF THE LINE if it was my company! Anyway appreciate the epic videos as always.

    • @xSCHEF

  • @keithreed2731
    @keithreed2731 Рік тому +2

    Watch your oil on the coolant leaker. If it's dropping a liner it won't appear milky from water right away but if the pyro is high it could be from water on one cylinder, the pistons usually blow up, the liners crack just below the compression ring on the top, the liners get really hot before the seals blow out and water gets in your oil, piston failure is usually close behind.

      Nothing says good seed establishment like immediately sqiashing a 15t cart right over it, tow between all day
