Was plowing all day in our versatile 550 dt then came home and watched youtube videos of other people plowing. Something about watching the snow rollin' that i cant get enough of lol.
Back in the 80s,when of our local farmers, had a hydrostatic drive tractor, and bought a twin impeller snow blower. The blower was eight feet wide and could handle drifts up to ten feet high. He would hire himself out to the county to clear blocked roads that they couldn’t clear. He was charging $100 an hour, from the time he left home until he returned. The beauty of the hydrostatic drive, was no clutches to slip and burn out, and he could adjust his ground speed from nothing to 20 mph.
Hi from Denmark - what a nice video - no shaking camera - no stupid computer generated music - no ugly face to look at all the time - no stupid comentary 😀
I had a cousin, and he had a big deere, with a large snowplow on it. He loved the winter, because he went out and plowed the county roads where we lived. The county sometimes took all day to get out where we lived. Sadly Bobby passed away and it is no more.
Remember, we are made of energy and so is the universe, and energy never dies, therefore we never die, we just change our form of energy so don't be sad. He could be something amazing right now!
This is obviously a man of class and culture. This video is a very small slice of the American Dream. Thanks for sharing your piece of paradise with us dude.
Now that is art! Taking something as simple as a tractor plowing snow, and turning it into a beautiful video with some great drone shots, and some amazing music. That was a pleasure to watch. :) Now if I could just convince my wife that we need a tractor and plow set up like yours, to plow our lane this winter...
@@dfarmer_ So true believe it or not just to replace the tires on that tractor could cost $ 20,000 or more depending on which ones you get , tubes , transport , not to mention fluid and the big one mounting. From personal experiance I had to replace a front tire on my 7700 combine about 7 yrs ago , the Used tire was $1000 the tube was $120 the labor we did it our selves , thankfully we had a 20 ton jack and really heavy duty tools and 3days
WOW WHAT A MACHINE!! While us "City-its" are complaining that we cant get to the mall in our SUV due to crappy roads you are out working the roads and the fields. Thank you thank you thank you
I drove a Subaru Forester on 5 inches of snow cover a little slippery but she did fine 👍 with snow you take it slow 1st gear crawl and if you start sinking reverse!
I've plowed a lot of snow. People don't realize how heavy it is. It only moves so fast. With an angle blade it's a combination of speed and angle of the blade. If you angle it to much it pushes you sideways, if you are too straight it won't leave your blade. If you have some place to push it, like into a barrow pit it not so bad. I've had to go out into a field and work my way back to the road.
I remember riding along on the milk truck after a 3 day blizzard. The farmer opened the road with his tractor and loader. That was fine for his car or pickup but one wheel to narrow for the truck. The storm started with rain and left an ice coat on the road under the snow. We ran out of traction half way down the section road. So with a half mile to go either way it was get out and shovel. Fortunately with about 20 or 30 feet of widening we got moving again. I was a junior in high school and in a lot better shape. It would literally kill me now. Snow removal equipment is so much better now.
WOW what a show plow. It's unstoppable Great shots from air of this Beast, taking on the snow in middle of nowhere. I remember using Three Dump plows in tandom, doing what this does with one pass. Thank you so much for showing what a Farming Tractor will do with the right blade on front.
Love these videos. I used to open roads for the milk truck with s 7630 John Deere with a loader and snow bucket. But when it got really deep out came the 9630 with the silage blade. That thing was unstoppable
I have a john deere 1030 with a blade on the 3 point hitch and shovel on the front , i learned a long time ago to get out early and often when its snowing and make it easy work. Must be fun to have such a beast to work and play with . Loved the video
The ladies get impatient when it's feeding time and they have to wait. Smart man for making easy access roads to the winter buffet, can't have the ladies waiting after all. ✌✌
This warms my heart!! I'm building an off-grid home almost two miles from the main gravel road, and have a mid-1950s Mccormick 400 with a mounted blade to keep my field-and-bush access trails open during our Manitoba winters... no cab, no power steering... just push, back up, and push again and again and again... watching your unit bust through the snow drifts with wonderful ease is simply fantastic!
We had a MF1805 with a silage blade. It worked great, but we'd run out of places to put the snow. We needed a frontend loader just to carry the snow out.
That was Jim Biwer in Kasson Mantorvile MINNESOTA. Glorious...1978's-80's. I delivered early morning Star Tribune and Post Bulletin by afternoon. My savior in the heavies. Bike or foot. Or both. Jim will be missed.
Big ass John Deere, big ass snow plow and classical music? Are you for real? Great drone video until you attacked the trees. I just stumbled on this and now I’m subscribed.
Reminds me of plowing snow on my hand crank start F30 with a cable bucket... put burning charcoal under the oil pan for a couple hours.... but that was a few decades back.
Guys here talk about running there Cat D2/6's in the winter time and having to pump all the water out of it at night into a steel barrel on stilts, then lighting a fire under it the next morning to warm it back up before putting it back in the engine!!! I cant imagine
We got a stiger 470 with chains an lead weights in the tires an custom plow we take put duals off in winter back then now we juat use a new plow truck since we dont much snow anymore
Hey Bob!! I Think Thomas is plowing the snow off his fields so he can plant in February! Well I'll be. I'll put him on the prayer chain and send the sheriff out to make sure his alright. We better have an emergency town hall meeting on this.😂
Needs to put some adjustable skid feet on that plow, way less drag, saves wear on the cutting blade, would use less fuel in the tractor, wouldn’t have damage to the road from digging in and it would be easier to steer, basically it would just be easier on everything.
I used to haul Oil in the RM's of Mervin and Britania and this was a familiar site in winter. also a welcome one too because you knew if you got stuck, who to call. I subbed as soon as I realized it was not so far from home (Meadow Lake) and what is was about.
Got some snow out here in southwest colo but it's to cold & wind to be out on my little 1025R John Deere. Maybe tomorrow. . . .we'll see. . . .hopefully! I love my "tractor theropy"🚜

Best part of your rig a cab plowed many years with out at out family farm opening up field with a pusher box on our Ford 3550 backhoe and massey's Ferguson industrial 50 we also have to clear roads and it was cold but it was better than doing it by hand.
hey, this reminds me of what I did this winter, except my 70's john deere 7020 four wheel drive with duallies died in the driveway and stayed there for a month...
They are actually pretty quiet. If you could hear a cat with a big four or six cylinder engine, straight pipe, and when you are working it and hit a sudden load, the governor kicks in and it makes music.
Because out in the country, we have a LONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG history of taking care of business for ourselves. I was raised an Oklahoma farm boy and taught that if a job needs to be done, you get up and do it for yourself.

Brings back memories of my teenage years in Georgia. We had a 1986 John Deere 8630. I put a many hours on that big boy. It was a beast of its era.
that would have been a huge tractor back then!
I had a 8430 with a replacement 8640 engine in it. Nice tractor. Also had a 4430 and 4230.. Those were great tractors too!

With a machine like that there would be no fear handling any snow environment. Thanks so much for sharing!
Not very many things that will stop the mighty 9630. Great video and great music.
The very best part of this video is the back round music. How pleasant. Does rattle my brain like some of the stuff or folks post.
Nice to see a Degelman blade at work. They are solid.
looks like the operator owns the gravel contract for that side road as well
Yup, leave it to the farmers to get the job done. Great footage.
