Great video as usual Andy, I am sure that my Dad and Grandad wish this had been around when they were struggling with their pitchforks and flat trailers collecting bales (all be it small bales). Some nice drone flying there trying to keep up.
Hi Ian I remember stacking 25 acres of small “idiot blocks” into vertical 8’s as my brother went up and down making them with me following behind. By the end of the day I was about knackered but I got the last of them stacked just before it started raining which normally would have been a good thing to protect them from a bit of rain. But that year it rained for days and never stopped and every bale was useless 😡😡😡
Brilliant adaption of an already fantastic implement...... CTF is a real farm saver of compaction.... just a shame after using chaser 5o eliminate it the driver then screws around on the field totally defeating the whole purpose
Thanks for commenting Andrew and yes I do see where you are coming from regarding CTF and then traveling anywhere. But this farm doesn’t use CTF yet, but I know what you mean if it was .
The driver is very good and he made it look it’s best , but I must admit the older version I filmed last year seemed just as good really, but to be fare I do think this version was still a prototype and not the finished article. 😊👍
Love it when I find a new channel with great farming content. Subscribed. Keep it up!
Hi Jonny Thanks for your great comments and even more for subscribing, I’ve got another two films to get edited and publish before too long 😊👍

Hi, are they 1.2 x2.4 bales?
I can’t remember to be honest 🤦♂️

Not sure about that chaser - look alot slower than the QM variant

@@ANDYOLDRIDGEFARMINGVIDEOS the CTS is def a nice machine. Similar to the Anderson bale chaser. looks like it holds more bales
It’s a good capacity machine and pretty quick if you have a handy driver 👍
