We're getting quite a kick out of watching you use the type of equipment we used 60yrs ago. Never imagined in my wildest dreams I see drone footage of old time haying. Cheers =^··^=
Sorry you are hurt. That is a perfect stand of alfalfa. Don't hesitate to call your neighbor for help. Ask him and your friends and neighbors who you can call to put your hay and haul it for you if necessary. They might do it on shares? You are hurt don't make it worse. Tomorrow start getting your help lined out, don't wait until the last minute because they need time to make their plans. That is very good hay you don't want to waste it if it gets wet.
Well done on showing the reality of a farming life. Most 'city slickers' just don't realise that regardless of how poorly you may be feeling, the farm life goes on - animals must be fed and cared for, chores must be done and next season prepared for by making hay, tending gardens etc. Hang in there Evan - you are an inspiration!
Really fine people have extended a helping hand. Don’t be a hardhead take the helping hand with gratitude. You can always pay it forward. I really enjoy your channel and wish you success.
I read all the replies and only 1 person offered to help ........ so where did this comment come from? People were saying IF I lived closer I would help .......... IF .... They don't live close enough.
MiChelle Jaggard Your right, just trying to be positive and encouraging. I am 75 and living in Southern California. I would be useless. I will continue to try to be supportive and positive. Doesn’t hurt but someone always trolling one’s efforts.
If I lived close I would be there to help do what ever you needed...68 years old but hard work is what I like I wished I was closer I would be there every day as long as you needed...you are a good person and a hard worker
Prayers for you. I am retired but was raised on a working farm/ ranch. If it would help I can come down and take your hay so it can dry. We live just up the road from you.
Roy Stacey , That is very nice of you Mr. Stacey. I sure hope Evan takes you up on your offer, because he really needs help.I pray he will. God bless you.
When you rake, pick the straightest/longest side and start doing rows, then do the “headlands” last in circles. This keeps you from running over windrows when turning around, and baling rows is better than circles.
I have cut a lot of hay with a sickle mower. The first pass around the field needs to be in a clockwise direction. That will give you an indication of what is in the field and where to run the tractor on the next pass. After getting the first pass finished, turn around and go counter clockwise to mow out your tracks, then turn back around and do the third and following passes.
I would agree with this except for one small point. I would drive at least twice around the field simply because the mower cut is wider that the tractor width and it would mean you would have to drive on another piece of unmown crop. Further to this I would mow about 5 times round and then choose the longest straight run and strike off driving as reasonably straight as possible. At the other end turn left handed and drive back down over the swath you have just mown mowing a fresh swath. Continue doing this until the width of unmown crop on one side is less than the width of that which you have mown. Then mow right handed and mow one or possibly both blocks to completion. The main reason for this approach is when it comes to tedding, raking and especially baling long straight swaths make for a much easier driving experience.
Dad 2as bucked off a horse and broke his back. 7 surgeries through his life, but he still farmed.As he aged my brother and I did the farming. Instead of making those sharp turns and slowing down, cut past the end of the crop and do a circle or loop turn back to your left. Raise your bar to clear the cut hay. You make this loop at speed so make the loop big enough to manage the turn at speed. Come back into the uncut hay at speed with a clean bar. You will have even less clogging. No one says you have to fill the sickle. Take 3/4 or 1/2 swathes if you need to. Many of us smiled watching you run the machinery. We were doing this as kids. Thanks for a great video!
You have done a great job, sickle mowers make hard work of hay making, save your money and get a haybine ,took me a few years to get a haybine, was the best thing i ever did.
Here in Holland we dont even bother with this ancient machines. We mow with a drum-mower combination (2,5m wide drummower on the front of the tractor and a 2,5m wide mower on the back) sometimes if we need to cut a lot we put in a 2nd tractor with a 3m wide disc mower/conditioner. That way we easily put down 40 acres an hour.
Farm accidents happen so easily Evan and that is why you should always have someone else around when using farm machinery. An injured back is a real downer for a farmer so you have my sincere sympathies. Hope it gets better soon. Don't let the hay lie unturned as it will rot and then it's a real bummer to get rid off. 👍👍👍
Sorry about your injury, back pain is the WORST. I hope you feel better soon. The hay does look wonderful! I have faith someone will help you get it turned and baled and put away.
Oh Bud, Back pain is no fun, I been living with it for over 10 years. Hopefully you just bruised and are going to heal real fast. Hopefully you have some friends that will step up and get your hay taken care of. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us.
Looks like your first cut was pretty successful given it was all new to you. Sorry to hear about your fall. Hope you can get to raking and bailing in spite of your pain. Remember that your health is more important than the hay.
Welcome to the hazards of farm life ! I think when you get the mower "Fine Tuned" you will be able to mow lots faster. We used Farmall tractors to mow and always mowed in Foutth gear which depending on which tractor, was between 5 and 7 MPH. Best combination was A Farmall 400 in fourth gear at 7 MPH . You have a great looking hay crop. I just hope you can get help to get it bailed and stored. Good luck on thet back recuperation. Hope you don't have any permenant damage .
Welcome to farming, hope you have some good neighbors like we had growing up. In 2000. My little brother got killed on a motorcycle and the neighborhood came and cut and houses 15 acres of tobacco. It was a blessing 🙏. We tried to do the same when was needed. Good neighbors is hard to beat.. you'll figure everything out with your equipment. God speed
ICE!! Apply ice, 15 min. on, 15 min off. When I fell and hurt my back the ER Doc said to apply heat, I did and if anything it got worse. When I saw my chiropractor he told me NO heat, do ICE. That's when it started to improve. NICE looking hay, by the way!
We were told at work if someone sprained an ankle or knee we had 10 gallon water coolers and were told to place the injured limb in the ice water. The ice water causes the capillaries to contract and limits the swelling ....
So so sorry,I am so happy you didn’t show us you getting hurt. I am praying for a fast recover for you. I am in Florida not close to you,if I was I would do everything I could to help you . I will continue asking the Lord for your healing.God bless you and Rebecca .
Round up is the gift that keeps on giving. I saw another u tuber use horse manure that had been sitting for two or more years only to kill everything because the horses had eaten hay that had been contaminated and that nasty stuff survived digestion and sitting and killed his garden.
I hurt my back in april using a tiller in hard ground. suffered for a few weeks but better now. I am 78 years old and still try to do things my way....lol. Evan, you may need Rebecca to take a crash course in tractor driving. I know she can do it.
A speedy recovery to you. Rebecca it's your turn to turn the hay, you can do it we all have faith in you, make hay while the sun shines, love and blessings to you both from Scotland :) :)
Sorry to hear about your injury - hang in there! Hope you heal up quickly but I'm sure you'll find help if you need it. Don't be too proud to ask - you'll be back to lifting stuff in no time. Great job on learning and cutting that field.
I was so glad that you got to grips with the cutting bar and you got all the hay down but then I was so sad to hear about your back injury. Back pain, ear ache and toothache are the worst pains and I know the agony you are experiencing. Here's hoping you have a speedy recovery and that someone will help you get the hay baled and put indoors.
holy shit Evan, keep us posted as to your back recovery. homesteading is a good eye opener, being aware of your surroundings & risk vs reward comes into play more often. hope you feel better, thnx to you both for the vids.
Sorry to see your not good, hope you heal quickly, and take up the offer of help from your retired neighbour its what good people do for each other in need, God Bless.
We are so sorry for your accident! I wished we lived closer so we could come help you! Prayers for a quick recovery, take care & listen to nurse Rebecca! :)
As a kid I mowed grass with a sickle bar at a brisk walking speed. The tractor I used was a walk behind Gravely. I was so glad when we got two things, a riding sulky and a rotary mower to replace the sickle bar.
If you start cutting so you are driving over your back swath you can watch for objects in the back swath. We make 3-4 passes around then go back to cut the back swath. The back swath is almost always the worse grass to cut because of sticks and over hanging branches.
Sorry you hurt your back. Hope it get better but I know Rebecca will take good care of you. Take it easy until you feel better. The hay will be 👌 until you can finish. Here’s wishing you a speedy recovery. Take care.
Evan, Just a thought, love to watch those grass/alfalfa fall in neat rows. Nothing like the "cut" an old sickle-bar mower gives! Your candor and humility (learning the job...) are refreshing! You may explore a "haybine" someday as they have an intake rake and a crimper behind which speeds curing. Enjoy your videos. Sorry 'bout yer back! (I know the feeling...)
Oh brother, I was on vacation all this week. Wish would have seen this sooner, if I can help I can help. Prayers you well up, your wife will do an amaz job of helping you
Just like a baler also-after a long winter it needs some time to 'stretch out' so to speak and get back into the groove. Our old John Deere square baler would always give Dad problems for the first couple of days and then run like a champion the last few days. Then park it back in the shed and repeat the process next year.
I have roughly 100 hours of mowing experience, from what I have learnt is that you want to start with your tractor on the edge of the field and the mower in the field, mow the whole field and do the furthest headland last because there is going to be the most rocks and sticks in closest to the trees that can damage the mower so badly that you could spend all day repairing the mower and not be able to cut it all in the day.
As a kid we had an IH 300 and the speed was dependent on how heavy the crop was but you ran the motor at PTO speed and normally 3 gear around 4 1/2 mph in a normal crop. Heavy materials you just slowed ground speed until you were cutting it all with out tear out. The bar needs to be pitched forward just a little and the lower you can cut the easier time you will have. The sweep on the end just needs to move the material in enough to clear room for the mower gearbox. The closer to the root of the plant the less it can lay over. Wore many a blister on my butt from those old seats in the hot Sun 😁 Enjoyed the content 👍👍. We all rush make mistakes only experience can teach some things. Be safe.
We mow out from hedge/trees first time around the field.then mow centre of field and then do the very outside sward lat.means if you break something on a branch or stone you have the field all done already!!
Awesome video. Good learning experience. Like the birds eye view really gives a great perspective on the pattern and how hay is being cut. Also you got a great stand of hay. Hope you healed from your back 👍👍
So sorry you're hurt, Evan. It's been cool to watch you learning new things in an effort to improve your property and run your homestead. Hopefully you can heal up quickly and finish the job!
Evan I'm so sorry you got injured. I will keep you in my prayers. I did want to tell you for your first try I think you did an awesome job. I loved your use of the drone to show the mowing it was wonderful. I will also pray that you find help to get your hay in. MiChelle
Good job, Evan! Its hard learning all that stuff! You are blessed to have all that land and the tractor to do it with! Love the drone shots! Also, store your fence posts upright! Build a rack to store them in.
We're getting quite a kick out of watching you use the type of equipment we used 60yrs ago. Never imagined in my wildest dreams I see drone footage of old time haying.
Cheers =^··^=
Sorry you are hurt. That is a perfect stand of alfalfa. Don't hesitate to call your neighbor for help. Ask him and your friends and neighbors who you can call to put your hay and haul it for you if necessary. They might do it on shares? You are hurt don't make it worse. Tomorrow start getting your help lined out, don't wait until the last minute because they need time to make their plans. That is very good hay you don't want to waste it if it gets wet.
Well done on showing the reality of a farming life. Most 'city slickers' just don't realise that regardless of how poorly you may be feeling, the farm life goes on - animals must be fed and cared for, chores must be done and next season prepared for by making hay, tending gardens etc. Hang in there Evan - you are an inspiration!
Really fine people have extended a helping hand. Don’t be a hardhead take the helping hand with gratitude. You can always pay it forward. I really enjoy your channel and wish you success.
it is not like the 19 50 to 1990 any more, people are all for them self. you cant get a helping hand unless you have deep pockets..
Nice to see 14 positive responses. I am too old and too far away or I would be there. Keep us posted and heal up. Quickly.
I read all the replies and only 1 person offered to help ........ so where did this comment come from? People were saying IF I lived closer I would help .......... IF .... They don't live close enough.
MiChelle Jaggard Your right, just trying to be positive and encouraging. I am 75 and living in Southern California. I would be useless. I will continue to try to be supportive and positive. Doesn’t hurt but someone always trolling one’s efforts.
Back pain is one of the worst pains. Here’s wishing you a speedy recovery so you can finish the hay. Thanks for sharing.
If I lived close I would be there to help do what ever you needed...68 years old but hard work is what I like I wished I was closer I would be there every day as long as you needed...you are a good person and a hard worker

Your a Good Man Roy Stacey, God Bless you.
Good on you Roy! I am a retired farmer in N.C. and available if you need help getting Evan's hay in the barn... -Tony Knight
Aww that's so good of you to make that offer, may your store basket never run empty

I’m so sorry you were injured. You did a great job despite the circumstances. 👍👍👍🌟
When you rake, pick the straightest/longest side and start doing rows, then do the “headlands” last in circles. This keeps you from running over windrows when turning around, and baling rows is better than circles.
Love to see Rebecca learn how to bale hay - your star helper would be entertaining.
Praying for a fast recovery for you and that God will send the right people to help you with all the work during your recovery! Amen!

@@Dan.Whiteford Oh yeah, you are correct, I didn't know the bar was 9'. It will take 2 passes clockwise. Loved the drone footage.
@@geraldskaggs3903 good advice.
I could see the pain in your eyes I really hope it starts feeling better soon.
Hope you feel better my family will pray for you.😎
So sorry...hope you feel better. Maybe someone near you can help out. Good luck🍀

Wow speedy recovery don't beat yourself you live & learn 👍
Yeaa. Love your vids Evan. Keep up the good work.
Praying for you and a fast recovery. God Bless you Both.
So sorry you hurt yourself. Hope you are feeling better soon. Sending healing prayer!!!
Sorry to hear about your accident Evan. Godspeed on your recovery.
Haven't done hay since high school. Lots of fun!!!

great grass cutting, the last adjustment you made solved the hang-up problem, now you have to wait for it to dry & rake then bale, eazzy-pezzy.
Looks like your first cut was pretty successful given it was all new to you. Sorry to hear about your fall. Hope you can get to raking and bailing in spite of your pain. Remember that your health is more important than the hay.
This is when you call the family to come and help you. That's what farming is all about.
I wish you a quick recovery, I like your videos. Greetings from belgium (the French speaking part of the kingdom)!!
Well done you can be very proud of your first time that’s wonderful looking hay 👍🇬🇧💐🎉👍
We're sorry that you got hurt , have a speedy recovery , we love your videos and I would really like to love on those doggies
Sorry to hear about your accident. Take time to heal properly. We’d hate not to see you and your videos. I’ve learned so much from them. So take care!
The Hay looks Lush. Beautiful.

Great video, I do love watching old time machinery working again
Disc mowers are the answer. Beautiful crop of grass

I second that, ice gets the swelling down.

I hurt my back in april using a tiller in hard ground. suffered for a few weeks but better now. I am 78 years old and still try to do things my way....lol. Evan, you may need Rebecca to take a crash course in tractor driving. I know she can do it.
Sorry about your back. Really enjoy your show. Did Dr. Put you on a muscle relaxer or pain pill.? I'll say a prayer.
Where are you located? If you’re near Columbus, Ohio I might be able to help anytime you get in a bind.
A speedy recovery to you. Rebecca it's your turn to turn the hay, you can do it we all have faith in you, make hay while the sun shines, love and blessings to you both from Scotland :) :)
Very hard work with a great patience

Love the videos and your choice in music for the videos. You all are AWESOME take care, speedy recovery.
don't you just love it when a plan comes together. bush hogging and mowing hay was my favorite farm job .
So sorry you got hurt! I hope all your hard work doesn’t go to waste!
Awesome job with your equipment
Wishing you a speedy recovery. Stay safe and God Bless.
Those mowers work better after the rust gets wore off. When finished oil the sickle bar with old motor oil to keep rust at bay.
Just like a baler also-after a long winter it needs some time to 'stretch out' so to speak and get back into the groove. Our old John Deere square baler would always give Dad problems for the first couple of days and then run like a champion the last few days.

so sorry you are hurt,hope you heal quickly
Stay safe and hope for your full recovery
I love that you are pretty much wingin it. It really motivating. God Bless!
Hope you get better soon Evan. If I lived close I would be on your doorstep ready to give you a helping hand.
Wishing you a speedy recovery
As a kid we had an IH 300 and the speed was dependent on how heavy the crop was but you ran the motor at PTO speed and normally 3 gear around 4 1/2 mph in a normal crop. Heavy materials you just slowed ground speed until you were cutting it all with out tear out. The bar needs to be pitched forward just a little and the lower you can cut the easier time you will have. The sweep on the end just needs to move the material in enough to clear room for the mower gearbox. The closer to the root of the plant the less it can lay over. Wore many a blister on my butt from those old seats in the hot Sun 😁 Enjoyed the content 👍👍. We all rush make mistakes only experience can teach some things. Be safe.
It's amazing what Evan has achieved - these comments are a great help though, I'm sure
Thank you so much for sharing what you’re learned. Thanks also to the commenters that have shared their knowledge!
We mow out from hedge/trees first time around the field.then mow centre of field and then do the very outside sward lat.means if you break something on a branch or stone you have the field all done already!!
Best wishes for a really speedy recovery .
Great job Evan! Sorry to learn of your injury, get well soon.
Sorry to see you got hurt..I could tell you were in pain. Take care.
Wishing you a fast recovery! I enjoy your videos.
Hope your back heals.. no fun in pain with sore muscles. Love you videos... from Newfoundland Can watching them all.
Praying you heal quickly and are able to get your hay bales in the barn. God bless you and Rebecca and God bless your farm!
Awesome video. Good learning experience. Like the birds eye view really gives a great perspective on the pattern and how hay is being cut.
Also you got a great stand of hay.
Hope you healed from your back 👍👍
I hope you have a speedy recovery
I hope you heal quickly evan.
Looks great for a first timer.
Beautiful stand of hay. Hope your better
You learn as you go😎
Get well soon. Rest up and let your friends and neighbors pitch in and help. ❤️🌸
wishing you a fast recovery. You did a good job moving it was your first field.
So sorry you're hurt, Evan. It's been cool to watch you learning new things in an effort to improve your property and run your homestead. Hopefully you can heal up quickly and finish the job!
Evan I'm so sorry you got injured. I will keep you in my prayers. I did want to tell you for your first try I think you did an awesome job. I loved your use of the drone to show the mowing it was wonderful. I will also pray that you find help to get your hay in. MiChelle
That’s awesome stand of hay
Kudos to you for even trying to use one of those
Time for Rebecca to learn to bale hay' She can do it . All my female cousins did.
I was thinking the same thing, come on Rebecca you can do it, we have faith in you :) :)
Don’t I they have two sons. Never mind I am sure they are not any better at it than I would be
What is stopping you teaching Rebecca you can both learn together
If she can drive a car she can ted and rake hay at least its not that hard
When my mother lived at home she mowed and raked hay with a WC Allis; even hand cranking it.
I hope your back gets feeling better.
Good job, Evan! Its hard learning all that stuff! You are blessed to have all that land and the tractor to do it with! Love the drone shots! Also, store your fence posts upright! Build a rack to store them in.
