Nice! I have a M7060 cab tractor and just bought I new Vermeer M6050 8' disc mower. The reason I went with it is their new quick connect system which makes hookup as easy as with a caddy. It is awesome and will make caddies a thing of the past once people figure out how great Vermeers new setup are.
Vermeers connect is great. I still prefer the carted unit. Just a preference. I already had the kubota mower and was able to get the caddy brand new for 2500 couldn’t turn it down thanks for watching
Watched several of your videos, they are really good. Keep it up!
Thank you for the support Joshua! We are doing our best!
Nice video, he can really go with that mower 😳😉, nice aerial shots 👍🏻
Really wanted to put it to the test i got it up to 15mph leaving a perfect cut normal mowing is around 9mph thanks for stopping by!
We l; learned real Quick the advantages of having the Disc Mower mounted on a Caddy,, WE have 3 Krone Easy Cut 320s mounted on KMC 4760 caddies,,,,, We usually use 2 5115Ms and 1either the 6R145 or the6145R on the other All have GPS guidance and are Auto-steered,,,,,, It really saves on all phases of Haying, Mowing, Tedding, raking, I guess it could be also used while baling.... WE also have a Pull type Krone 3200 disc mower, but it is only used when we can find a driver......
Got my caddy brand new for a price I could y pass up, paid 2500 and it invoiced at almost 6,000
That is a deal!!
I love the zing of a three blade vicon/Kubota disc mower
Im not sure if the three blade design makes a difference but i really dont have any experience with anything else. lol From what i know this mower works great for me! Thanks Kyle
Very nice hay crop! That was some fast mowing, our conditions here won’t allow that. The best I can do is around 7 mph. Your building a really good channel, I see it being very successful.
Thanks ben. Normal mowing speed is about 9mph. We are doing our best and hoping to grow the channel as you did!
@@HillsideAcres you’ll do better then I ever thought about. We had a forage meeting once here with a guy from Wisconsin. He said how fast do you guys usually mow, 10 or 12 mph and one ole guy said we can’t even run the roads that fast around here 😂😂!
That is a gorgeous field of grass yall had there. So dark green and lush. I am sure it made some really nice hay. Yeah, he is rolling on that thing lol. Those drainages should help out a lot.
We got about 100 bales an acre from first cut ! Second cut coming soon going to push the tractor hard to make sure the new injectors are holding up. Should be a fun ride and I’ll even be wearing the seat belt lol!
@@HillsideAcres Wow that is awesome. Yeah you better wear that seat belt haha. My property is too rough and bumpy to go to fast. It would through me out haha. I just got finished bush hogging a few spots myself this week. I have left a lot of mine natural this year because I had a lot of wild flowers come up so I left it for the bees and other wildlife. If I had some good flat land like yours, I would be cutting some hay too.
Nice setup! Next door in MA here, we made our first of the year last week too 😊
Hey, thanks for watching, subscribed back. The cutter caddy is new for this year i got an awesome deal on it as new leftover stock i love it so far.
Great video and love the property 👌 subbed your channel.
Thanks for watching! were working on it everyday doing our best to make it better!
Nice video, new subscriber, keep em’ coming!
Thanks for watching, i will check out your channel as well!
That's a nice mower
Got it for an awesome price and it matches the tractor!
Wow! If you cut that hay any faster you'll start flying up in the air. 😁😆👍
Wait til I get on second cut! The m7060 has new injectors and they need to be put to the test! Thanks for watching Aaron
Already subbed. It’s so beautiful there!
Thank you! we still have a long way to go !
Hi we have a Kubota tractor to farm soon. Thank you for sharing it. Subbed and stay connected.
Thanks for watching !!
Nice drone work, editing is excellent too. That thing hauls…. Better be wearing a seatbelt!
In all honesty I had to put some speed in for video reasons and yes I really did put the seat belt on lol! Christy will have to take the credit for the editing and drone piloting. I have no idea how to fly that thing lol!
Does the caddy make road transpiration easy with a pickup[ truck? Now that I am one manning my operation I have started trucking equipment from lactation to location to save tractor time on the road.
Absolutley!
Very interesting I always wonder what those caddies where used for lol, are you really able to mow that fast?
I went for higher speeds for video purposes lol but typical mowing speed is 9 mph cutting an 8’ swath. I’ve had the mower up to 14-15 mph and that’s just too much for the tractor but the mower dosent miss anything even at that speed !
Wow, you are really moving at a fast clip! Do you guys find the caddy better than hooking right on the tractor? I guess like you said it is faster to hook up. Looked like a storm brewing in the background. Take care
Lol I usually cut at around 9 mph I got it up to 14 I’m the video because I like to push things a little bit on camera and wanted to see if it could really mow as fast as I could handle driving lol! There was a big storm that day that cruised right past us, the caddy is great. Takes a lot of weight off the tractor and handles much nicer! Thanks for watching
That first field was beautiful clean hay! Stinks that yellow rocket came up a bit in the back field there. You are straight flying with that mower! How fast are you going?
We did hit the yellos rocket with 2-4-d about two weeks before mowing so it was on its way out, even picked them out the swaths after it was down which really sucked lol, for video purposes i got it up to 15 and it still cut great lol but i typically mow my fields at about 9mph and a little slower on rented ground
how many bale of hay you get per acres?
I enjoyed your drone shots.
How much longer does it take to dry your hay not crushing it?
I am thinking of trading my haybine in on a 3pt disk mower.
I usually run a crusher behind my haybine.
So i crush my hay twice
I would say the dry time to a haybine is comparable because with the disc mower you can mow your hay at anytime of day, i know the haybine will not like dew on the hay and could clog up. Really minimal maintenance on these mounted disc mowers, we do all grass hay so im not afraid to hit it twice in a day with he tedder if i want to speed up dry time. Thanks for watching!
How much power does it take to run yours?
@@jimcox6687 The manual states 40hp minimum, i guess it would really depend on how fast you want to mow, ive been having issues with my tractor at full rpms so all of this video was in the economy gear and can do about a steady 8-9 mph on flat ground. They are pretty heavy and have leverage to them, so some decent weight to the tractor is a good thing too!
Great i have 2 40ty HP tractors.
and 1 115 HP tractor
@@jimcox6687 115 hp will definitely put down some hay!!
Holy cow that thing is moving fast. My land is nowhere near that smooth. did you have to smooth out the land at some point or did you get lucky?
In the video i got it up to about 15 mph lol but typical ground speed mowing is about 9mph. Never have to smooth it off, the land here was dozed off about 100 years ago and was cow pasture until about the 70's
Good afternoon I farm in Connecticut as well and am currently looking for a disc mower caddy. Just curious where you found yours. I asked most of the local dealers and they had no clue what I was even talking about. Thank you
Got mine from big boys toys it had been left over for two years they gave it to me for about half price which was awesome ! They are great over there
@@HillsideAcres ah yes I always forget about them since I’m on the opposite side of the state. Thank you very much I’ll give them a call when they open!
@@codywright8017 more than welcome to stop by and check mine out if you’re not too far ! Im sure it will be rare for a dealer to have one in stock
nice video, thx for sharing. You have a beautiful dog, wich kind of dog is it ? Greetings from Belgium
Wow, all the way from Belgium that is cool! Kimber is a “boerboel” which translates to farm dog, or “South African mastiff”. Their purpose is to protect livestock from Africa’s dangerous predators, lions, baboons, hyena etc.
@@HillsideAcres You're kidding me !!! I have a Boerboel also, so I kind off "recognaised" him. Have also an Ysterberg Mastiff, also a SF-Mastiff... Boerboels are GREAT dogs .... Pet him a little bit for me please ;-)
@@Pinziee Wow, small world! I always had Rhodesian ridgebacks growing up and had to put my most recent one down two years ago at 10 years old. He was 150lb akc champion !
@@HillsideAcres my BB has cancer in september he will becomes 8j hopefully
