I'm almost 70 years old now, but I can still remember riding on my dad's lap as he mowed alfalfa with an old sycle mower driven by a PTO belt and not a PTO bar...nothing like the smell of freshly cut hay!
I could listen to Old Man Gierok tell stories for days
Dad makes these videos very educational, thank you.
Gonna be alot alot of good hay bales in that field . Good quality hay nothing like that smell 😮
I have fond memories of working on a farm 60 years ago , making hay , at lunch time the farmers wife would bring out big plates of sandwiches with home made bread and lemonade.
Thank you for the memories , I enjoy all your videos .
Your videos are fascinating to this city boy. Greetings from Chicago.
Great video thanks guys
When my Dad was mowing hay with a New Holland sickle mower and pull behind crimper, he hit a baby fawn. He felt terrible about it. He felt so bad he came home and told me to finish and he would milk that night. Not a bad deal for me, mowing was a lot better than milking. In my eyes anyway!
My brother did the same thing with our dog. But the thing made it to the woods and showed up several days later with only 3 legs. Lived a couple more years after that.
Our last first cutting I ran over a baby phon that was laying down and then it was jumping around and my mother was following up behind me in another mower, and she did not see it so it went through to different mowers. We felt so terrible after seeing what it was, I seen it, but I couldn’t get her attention soon enough.😢
That is some good looking hay, wish you could smell it through the internet! I just had ours finished mid June.
Great Video, brilliant driving considering the contour, thanks for sharing
You’re hay looks great, wish ours looked that good in south eastern Wisconsin, your video is better then ours too 😂
Great job of explaining stuff, George. We enjoy listening to you.
Mowing roadside reminded me of the farm I worked on many moons ago lol but the owners were up in age back in the early 90's . So they grew up old school and Ole Charlie didn't miss any chance to make even a bale lol I was certainly like what is he doing ????? Waste not want not
Your hay looks really good!
Looks like some really good hay, I used to raise orchard grass alfalfa mix for beef cows years ago. Nice post! Thanks for sharing with us. Ron
When those blades wear out on one side you remove it and interchange it with the blades on it neighboring disk, thats what the blade angle is for. 👍
Tall stand of orchard grass. Looks really good considering how dry it's been.
Thank you!
thank you
Interesting and informative, LOVED it!. Your farm is quite hilly, so easy on the brakes is essential, you guys know that anyway!❤.
Mowing with a 2-point hitch mounted swiveling PTO drive is a game changer for odd shaped fields and frequent sharp turns. I upgraded from a New Holland 411 my dad bought to an H7230.
I wondered what the conditioner was for. Makes sense
A lot different than our IH 1190 sickle type mower-conditioner. Looks like they've come a long way on the drives for the disc type mower-conditioners. I always heard the first disc mowers were expensive to repair if anything went bad in the drive shaft for the individual cutterheads. I can see why you'd want a front assist tractor on the mo-co. That could be a real thrill on your slopes if you started sliding sideways. Hope the weather cooperates, looks like some really nice grass hay!!!
Did you buy the 7510 from Serwe's? My in laws family owned it for over 75 years before being bought out.
I keep chains on one tractor on my farm in the hills of S Iowa. Sliding down a hill is not a good experience. Grass can be as slick as ice.
Been very dry in Missouri too!
We always used to cut our hay with a swather. Was super fun to drive but always had problems. If you even need help with anything on the farm let me know. Id be happy to help out.
😊
Excellent narration, George. I hope you guys have a great Fourth of July. I can't get over the side hills you guys have are the edges of your tractor seats worn out from sliding off of them haha
There's an 18° high twist knife, the standard is 10.5°
WOW, Nice Hay. Thank you. 👍 (Naaman)
No rain on first crop hay makes good hay😂.No rain after first crop is a bad thing😢. Let's hope there is rain coming soon.All the crops could use some good rains!! Thanks 😮.
George, your machine is a Kuhn brand built for John Deere and painted green I have a coon about like that only narrower the drives are the same and the blades are the same. We cover about fifty-five to sixty acres of hay here on our Western Pennsylvania farm cutting it twice for dry hay and Baleage and then the last trip we make over we make with a flail chopper and feed it is greenchop that's extending our pasture time in the fall. Having said that I change blades about once a year on mine and I never bothered to turn them because for a set of blades that runs less than $30 for my 7-foot machine it doesn't pay to crawl under twice. Once to flip them and then the second time to change them out
The cutterbar on our first discbine, a New Holland 411, was built in France by Kuhn.
Beautiful land. Where are you located?
Cut Reed canary yesterday and some of it was 6ft. tall.
Great video!! Love how your dad explains thing! Do you guys have hats for sale?
The cyclone or disk type mowers and the mower conditioners are so much faster operating. We used to use a Hesston 1091 mower conditioner that had a sickle bar on it. That thing was so slow. Four to five mph was about it. You always had to listen for the tick or rattle of a loose blade on the bar. I'd brake a blade and you'd find the racing stripe when you raked the hay.
Witch cattle do you feed the orchard grass hay to? All of them or a select group? Thanks Ernie
I do wonder what ya thoughts if ya were to sell the moco ya have what kind of mower ya get?
last year I had to move a fawn when i was cutting I moved her about a 150 ft the mother was there about 3 hours later feeding her this was all caught on security cameras on my barn,I dont know if all deer will be this way but it didnt bother this one at all that i touched her baby
Would you buy another one like that or go to something else?
With all the haz it's hard to get the hay dry
Wondering with all your hills will a self propelled work considering how steep they are
Cutting width is 9' 9"
Did your son find the clevis pin that fell out of the swing cylinder?
I know that's commonly said about not picking up fawns but it's not true. I have personally picked up fawns to remove them from harms way and have seen the mother take to them immediately after.
We have a more common problem in Pa a curious ground hog pits his head up and gets sucked into the conditioner then baled
