That’s beautiful soil and a wonderful growing medium but clearly requires a great deal of care and requires experienced hands to manage it. It reminds me of the loam we had where I grew up, West Yorkshire, England. We were on the edge of rough moorland, comprising permanently saturated ancient peat bogs with sandy soils at lower elevations. A very well executed recovery - very well done.
Good job. Muck is tough, once you spin a tire you're done. Back in the early 70s i got a WD 45 stuck. By the time we got it out we would step down a foot to get on the platform of the tractor.
That's a really spongy spot. Every time you compacted the sand with the bucket, the ground waved like a water bed. The farmer needs to dig it out and mix sand with the muck to stabilize that spot in the field. Kinda looking like it has an oquifer almost at ground level. Or maybe it would be a great place for putting the pump for the watering system 🤔.
@ 13:32, it perfectly illustrates the "muck" you spoke of at the start of the video. As you slammed the bucket down to compact the sand. You sent a wave thru the ground you could see. Showing that the ground itself is like standing on the top of jello. Break the surface of it and you sink. Great video, glad YT recommended it to me.
You guys taking your time thinking things through is what separates you from the guys that are going to damaged equipment That was a very similar recovery as when my sister fell into a mud hole . She's big but I don't tease her about it because she's a good kisser
That was crazy how much the ground moved when you were trying to pack down the sand. You are correct about the muck. If you haven't farmed it, you have no idea how spongy it really is. Kinda like driving on a marshmallow. We used farm muck, and sometimes it was scary. You just never know where you might fall through. Great job. See you later.
Great job guys you have it down pat on getting them out. That still amazes me how the ground rolls when you hit it with the bucket. Take care guys and stay safe 👍
CNH owns the plant in St Nazianz Wisconsin that makes the Miller sprayers, formerly owned by the Miller family. I'll suggest it the next time I see any engineer out to lunch in town.
Growing up, we farmed a place the neighbors called Devil's Hole. About 150 acres of muck. Subsequently, our house and yard was on a ridge called Poverty Hill, by the old timers in the area. Good ol muck.
We added cables to each end of our mats and a hook on short cable mounted to back of bucket, your mats will last longer if you store them under water, we built small pond just for mats
it is like a foam pad, keeps bouncing! it is great that you are skilled at pulling free all of the big equipment on the farms! you never know what you will rescue next! great video, and showing off your great skills! 🚜 Hay Brandon I have some neat images for you, just need an address to send them!
Why give the manufacturer the profit…. With your fabrication skills make some after market attachment points to install on the sprayers. And sell them !
Because this time of the year they are spraying alot of crops that are up already so narrow tires do less damage and it's kinda of a chore to change them big wheels so they don't do it often

The ripple in the soil when you tamped it down. 😳

🤣🤣🤣
I was so shocked when the ground shook like a bowl of Jello as you were packing it.
You make your excavators move so gracefully.
Thank you

Yeah get all your buddies together everybody that you help out pulling them machines out and have a Matt building party😊
Sorry to hear that you were under the weather. Glad you are on the mend. Hard to work when you are not feeling well.
Looks like a waterbed. When u packed it with the excavator the sprayer shook scooter shook the ground shook. looks like a waterbed
Man that grounds crazy
DG&S Recovery to the rescue

Holy cow did you see the whole ground shake in front of the sprayer when he was packing that sand? Hey stay off them beans!
Growing up, we farmed a place the neighbors called Devil's Hole. About 150 acres of muck. Subsequently, our house and yard was on a ridge called Poverty Hill, by the old timers in the area. Good ol muck.
nice job .I cant believe how that ground moves and it can hold all your weight up.
Nice job gentleman and you guys didn’t even struggle. When you were packing the sand it looked like you were on Jello! 🇺🇸🇺🇸☝️☝️🙏🙏🙏🙏
We added cables to each end of our mats and a hook on short cable mounted to back of bucket, your mats will last longer if you store them under water, we built small pond just for mats
Great recovery
14:27 I can't imagine how many people can do with that machine.
That’s so nuts seeing how much the muck moves under you. Great recovery!! Also congrats on 40K!!
That made a mess!
Yea, another stuck sprayer, I always like to see them come out with those skinny tires and not break in half.
We got some Muck here in Hartville, Oh we call it the Swamp.
👍👍👍👍😊
Those artesian wells are a son of a gun. Got a sprayer stuck in one of them. Not a fun day
it is like a foam pad, keeps bouncing! it is great that you are skilled at pulling free all of the
big equipment on the farms! you never know what you will rescue next! great video, and showing
off your great skills! 🚜 Hay Brandon I have some neat images for you, just need an address to send them!
Trade sand or fill for some rough cut timber and make you own mats.
Thanks for sharing.
Another interesting video, Brandon.
Keep them coming
Thanks, will do!
I believe this area will make a very interesting video come harvest time !
when your not using your mats bury them in wet mud or in a creek
Great job
Like the video Brandon and your have very squil man .
They have a tow point on each side at the back just above the hydraulic motor I have pulled mine out many many times.
Be an excellent reason to get that C&C machine you want, and iron worker.
There is no Miller Sprayers, they are owned by CNH
Sorry to here 😔 i have had that happen a lot. The muck is about 600 acres of our IN land
Why give the manufacturer the profit…. With your fabrication skills make some after market attachment points to install on the sprayers. And sell them !
Enjoyed the video
Isn't there a place down by Dirt perfect that makes mats? Thought seen him or logger wade tour a place that makes them.
There probably is
Why don't spreaders use wider tires to float over the ground better
Because this time of the year they are spraying alot of crops that are up already so narrow tires do less damage and it's kinda of a chore to change them big wheels so they don't do it often
