Hello From Reno Nevada im a disabled heavy Equipment mechanic crushed my spine at work i really enjoy watching your videos you know we are 75% farms here they only advertise all the casinos keep up the good work thanks for sharing your lives ive seen alot of things to make life easier take care Rob
Hey. We went through Reno on our way up to Mammoth mountain one year, loads of interesting places along the way. So sad to hear of your cruel accident.
Mississippi country girl here, thank you for sharing your life with us!🤩 I never had a close relationship with my Father, I would give everything to have a Father like you Mr Sonne! And for Jr you rock sweetie, your so well mannered! You must make your parents proud! Keep it coming, GOD blessed you and your family n friends!
From a big city dweller I think farmers are the coolest group of people in this country. What would we do without this group. Make our lawmakers aware of the importance of our farming communities.
Hello Cole, Brian, an Jeff , BIG shout for MOM , love Ellie just doing her thing , i finally caught up on the video watching, thankn you all for all efforts to share your Beautiful American Farming productions , always learning, so much involved to run the place , Peace Blessings Craig ,
I love the videos you make Cole. Keep them coming! I can't get enough of your videos! I really enjoy watching channels where families work together and yours is my favorite! Other channels might share basic information but your videos are so funny! You guys clearly have fun working together. It's important for families to stick together, especially these days. There is something very valuable about the "wisdom of the white hair". There's so much knowledge we gain as we grow older. Brian is obviously a smart man to keep his ranch going for so long... and he's definitely a proud Dad. I love his dad jokes! Can't wait for the next video!
You guy have been busy busy! That hay hiker is pretty cool how it collects the rolls and places them in straight lines when your done! Saves time I reckon... Hope you are all doing good! 🤗😋
@@briansonne814 You guys are awesome, you make me laugh loads with your banter and jokes and also your bond! I was a fan beforehand But now I'm an air conditioner 😁🤣
Truly enjoy your videos. Your Dad is like no other. Still a strong farmer to the soul. Love seeing you two work so well togather. Russell in Houston,Texas
This was an amazing video watching you guys pick up that hay from the field… The aerial shots were magnificent!! Truly enjoyed watching the tractors turn in opposite circles to go pick up the next bail and it look like you guys are having a little fun out there once in a while… At least I hoped you were. That new piece of equipment you used definitely made things go a lot faster… Only you guys come let us know just how much difference it made. It was wonderful seeing a father and son enjoy farming together because there’s so many stories about fathers and sons who are angry at each other and by the time the sun hits 16 to 18 years of age he’s threatening to leave and doesn’t want to have anything to do with his dad or the farm so, I think you guys are an exemplary Case of how it can be between Father and Son on the Farm♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Had a Fence-work Friday turn into a Sunrise Saturday. Got it wrapped up and was watching the vid in the truck during lunch. Apparently I took an unplanned nap at 6:40 due to the relaxing music, woke up to 16:06 with the worst anxiety! Thought a gate got pushed open! 😂 CAN'T hear the girlfriend on the other side of the room, or so I'm told...CAN hear a gate open half a mile away! Stay Sunny, Sonne's! 🇺🇸🐮💪❤️
Hay hay hay family Sonne!! I hope you had a great birthday Brian and Cole was suitably generous to you. I love the hay hiker, what a great bit of kit. The way the bales unload onto the floor is very satisfying. When you picked up the bale and it didnt fall on right reminded me of wrapping silage bales, if you had a mis-shapen one they would do that and end up jammed half on and half off, or they would spin off halfway through being wrapped. I thought your camera would be a goner inside the muckspreader Cole, I was dreading a stone to flick up off the beaters and wipe it out. Thanks for another great episode of Sonne farms!! Stay safe all and god bless. Dave.
You guys are the best I love how you interact with one another........I missed out on that with my dad he wasn’t in my life until just before he passed away from Cancer....God Bless you both and the family
We cut and bale hay all summer right up to frost. Everyday from sun up until sun down. I like your equipment. My big brother has been doing it yearly since he was born almost. Man we cut and bale a lot of hay. We cut wheat, Rye ,and oat hay first, then burmuda and some hay grazer. Blue stem and even crab grass and anything else someone has. We cut some beat-all blue stem 70 acres that made over 500 round bale. They added those microbes and it really grew. We still have 1,000 bales to haul for a Rancher that leases land and the guy he leases off of makes him buy all of his hay. So we hired out to haul it. I like that round bale hauler the demonstrator. Nice. We use a 14 bale hauler that you slide all the bales forward and we dump them all at the same time. And we use flatbed goose neck like you guys do. We use John Deere tractors balers and swathers. We also use other brands too. In five years the tractors and equipment is flat dab wore out. lol
Shout out to Saskatoon, home of Saskdutchkid! Hello from Saskatchewan everyone. I could see the hay raker used for staging. Picking up all the bales in the field and leaving them in double rows for the tractor with double forks to load and haul to the yard. If hauling any distance 7 bales probably wouldn’t cut it. You should have timed one of your loads to one of your dad’s hauling the same amount as him. Interesting video though. We have had 2 inches of rain in the last 24 hours. No haying here.
I know you and your dad are professional farmers, I still admire your skills with something akin to awe at what you both accomplish. Your mom I know is equally accomplished. From here in Montreal, you are greatly appreciated. Linda
That bale hiker is awesome! Love how it empties everything in one straight line - no rearranging. A helluva lot better than one or a few at a time! You were doing great, Cole - practice makes perfect. The bale you wrecked can be used as bedding for Ellie when she doesn’t want to come in this winter lol
My name is Brandon I am a country boy so I play farm simulator 2019 a lot and watching you guys truly gave me more onsite when it comes to playing farm sim lot of things I didn’t know how they really worked on a a cattle farm but you guys truly helped me out with it so looking forward to watching more of your amazingly awesome videos keep up the awesome work guys 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
should definetly try out a double wide hay hiker we have a 8 bale one works good cant get any bigger without destroying tractor brakes on our river hills. i have ran a 14 bale rig they are awesome for time efficiency i would look into one more towards that size for your operation if you have the horsepower!
The hay hiker is an interesting concept. I would love to see the 14 bailer in action. I love it when you are spreading the wealth with the manure spreader. I helped my grandpa on his farm when I was a kid. Watching you do it makes me feel young again.
GREAT to watch an enthusiastic young farmer working with his Dad!!! Thanks for very informative, interesting videos which are great for watching during this pandemic, and would be very enjoyable and interesting for all the city folks who never get to see a large, successful farm operation!! Wish you and your family unlimited success!!
I stumbled across y'all about 5 months ago, (March 2021), so I'm loving going back n watching old videos. 👍 A couple of days ago I watched the latest video, (26th August 2021), of the 3rd cutting, raking n bailing n commented how my slight OCD had me loving it as it makes the farms look neat n tidy. Now I have to say I'm loving the scoop 'em up on the fly bail collector SO70(?) of this July 2020 video. Loving it I tell you! 😁💙 Then cried when you spread the manure n made it all messy. So much so that I had to get my vacuum out n tidy up already clean timber floors just to settle my OCD. LOL! 😄 Are you going to be using/demo the vacuum bailer picker-upper again this year? Love your work Cole, Brian, Jeff n Ellie. And I'd love to see more of Mrs Brian too, where are you Tammy?! ! 💙🙏
So awesome to find your channel! We pass your road each time we drive down to Yankton. Lots of family there and miss "home"...........I'll have to look for your road next time we come visit from Seattle. Got our here by the military back in the day and all the kids are here otherwise we'd live back home near SF or Yak. Great to see SO DAK on the tube! Blessings
I hope your lip is okay Cole. Tell your dad I said it's okay to take the rest of the day off. If you hold a cold can of beer on your lip it will help with the swelling. What you have to do is, hold it on there for about 3 or 4 minutes. After that you drink the beer because you don't want it to get warm. Repeat as necessary until the pain subsides. Don't worry about day drinking, first of all because it's medicinal and second, like the song says, it's 5:00 somewhere. ( trust me, I'm related to a doctor )
If you buy a hay hiker you should by the 14 bales version because with 7 bales you must drive 2 times to get one trailer with the 14 trailer and loader you also got 15 like the flatbed
Have you ever considered a contest for subscribers where the prize would be the opportunity to visit your farm, for a say a week, to work along-side you guys?
My husband worked on John Deere equipment 50 years. My Dad retired from International Harvester. Good conversations between the two of them. I would love watch a big farm 👍. Keep up the good hard work.
Good video! The double wide 14 bale would be the way to go if you were going to do it. To much travel time up and down the roads for the 7 bale model. The 14 bale model would definitely save you guys a lot of time with the hooking and unhooking of trailers.
I farm for a living in TN. I started watching RUclips videos to educate myself on different practices around this Great Country we live in. I just enjoy enjoy watching y’all for entertainment. Not that I ain’t learning something but y’all seem down to earth. I would say some of the other you tubers probably ain’t that nice if you met them in person.
I really enjoyed watching this video think u for sharing it with us keep them coming and think u for all the work that you'll do can't wait to watch the next one
And that (Brian) is why it’s nice to have one old International around. When I can’t stomach the thought of changing another PTO shaft I go to the tractor that always has both at the ready. And the most annoying cab doors on the face of the planet. And shift levers you can trip over anytime you please. And only two hydraulic remotes. But other than that she’s mint.
Always interesting & enjoyable. I have said this before but you do come up with some excellent camera positions / angles. The camera going out the manure spreader "over & under" was neat. Thanks for sharing. 🚜 🚜 🚜🐄🐄🐄🐄 🚜 🚜 🚜
Nice addition to your haying implements , love y'alls videos, I look forward to seeing every video , y'all takecare and hope you get some beneficial rain for your soybeans, corn and hay fields, I know that can be a huge stresser .
You should check out the agri speed hitch by Bergman manufacturing for your bale trailer. They save you a ton of time in a day not having to get out to hook and unhook your trailer!
Thanks so much for sharing the video. I am impressed with the hay hiker. As many bales as y'all have to move, investing in the 14 bale hiker would be very helpful.
looks like a sweet machine, i think i would look at the 14 if you had bigger farms like yours or if you got the 7 i would be inclined to run it just in the field not field to storage. I reckon if you took that out to the field an hour or so before the tractor trailers you could work up a field edge working towards far end of the fields, then clear from the back of the fields bring all the bails back to the entrance where the tractor trailers collect and run them back to storage, granted some will say its double handling i get that, but i think you could get enough bails back where the tractors wouldnt need to run all over the field to collect you could do the collecting they do just the pick up and storing which would speed it up , if the weather is looking to be bad and you needed to move super fast so as to save bails from getting spoiled it would pay for itself in the long run. If you got one unit running across the field collecting it would save on fuel and the ground would get less compaction over all which would help with drainage, im thinking how your fields are prone to getting water logged, i maybe over thinking things here but i think both 7 and 14 could serve a purpose on your farm, 14 if you wanted to stick to standard way, 7 could serve a purpose if used like above. Looks like a good bit of kit either way
again, great multiple camera angles, that's a cool way to keep the videos more interesting that a single shot. Kudos! And the hay hiker, daaang. That's cool. Ummm, wow, Ellie. Tough call on who to run to! Thanks for the ever growing number of videos that are a pleasure to watch. How the heck is Lake Sonne still even muddy?
Not necessarily, could always use the smaller mover to gather all the bales in a field into one long pile. Then the loader tractors don't have to drive around much to load trailers up.
This is some really good stuff. I love it keep it coming . I’m a Physical Education teacher here in Georgia but I feel like a farm guy. Keep ‘em coming I will watch. Thanks!!
We have a Kosch Balehandler - had to chuckle on the bale shifted while trying to load. There’s always one that no matter what you do, it won’t load until you’ve torn off the net wrap.
That was a sweet machine to pick up bales, it’ll go nice with the baler you showcased on another video. Saves time! Ellie’s favourite person is probably the one who feeds her, lol. I loved the part of the video where you camera was inside the manier truck…going going gone, right underneath. I was thinking it would get all chopped up at some point, but no, you’re getting really good at those video shots! Fun video, as always. Will you show a shot of your moms flower garden again this year? They were stunning. 👍❤️
We have one of those and they work pretty good. Minus points if you don't line up to the bale right, it won't load and the cylinder that works to load the bale is quite low and if in an imperfect field, it will gouge the field or get packed with dirt. Otherwise it beats a loader and trailer every time.
Cole, this was just a very, very good video! You did a good job of the demo of the Hay Hiker and you will just get better with demos as you go. The manufacturer, distributor, and your contact would like to see their names on the screen - that's understandable and will draw you more offers. You will get lots more offers to demo equipment and implements, and if you associate with 5 or 6 manufacturers/distributors/ag companies like seed and chemical suppliers, they can keep you very busy at the farm shows in the offseason. That is very lucrative and allows opportunities for collaborations with other RUclipsrs which is the very best way to grow your channel. Keep up the good work. You are on your way!
Oh wow I am so far behind on watching your guy's Video's, one day I will be caught up, One thing about this , I sure Love watching your guy's journey.. So many memories come my way .. thank for sharing.
Hey cole I enjoy the vedio and that new piece of equipment you was running that would save a lot of trips in the field I been working on the barn today and a friend of mind was helping me and it was a hot one today I wish I could have something like that to move hay stay safe and your family to looking forward to the next vedio and tell Jeff I said hey to stay cool cloe talk to you again in a day or to
Farmers ARE the backbone of this country!........................and my wifes horses and cattle would agree!

We got one of them hay hikers from high line to and we love it! Great machine!
Just found your channel I like 👍. God bless the farmer.
Awesome! Thank you!
From a big city dweller I think farmers are the coolest group of people in this country. What would we do without this group. Make our lawmakers aware of the importance of our farming communities.
The parents of this young man should be proud! I’m 63 a new subscriber and enjoy the fun that’s had with ALL the hard work! Blessings
Awesome! Thank you!

I am so impressed how well Cole and his Dad get along….they are such good friends…..wonderful to see that kind of harmony.

Blows my mind how much farm equipment has changed for the better in 65 yrs. all we had was mules.

Fascinating watching that round bale pick-up. City girl enthralled with farm/ranch work. Keep it coming!🥰

Awesome! Thank you!
Shout out to Saskatoon, home of Saskdutchkid! Hello from Saskatchewan everyone. I could see the hay raker used for staging. Picking up all the bales in the field and leaving them in double rows for the tractor with double forks to load and haul to the yard. If hauling any distance 7 bales probably wouldn’t cut it.

Thanks so much cole and Brian for that. Much appreciated.
I know you and your dad are professional farmers, I still admire your skills with something akin to awe at what you both accomplish. Your mom I know is equally accomplished. From here in Montreal, you are greatly appreciated. Linda
It is folks like you that built our great country. My hat is off to you. May god bless you and yours.
Hay Cole. Nice job, great equipment! 👍👍
That bale hiker is awesome! Love how it empties everything in one straight line - no rearranging. A helluva lot better than one or a few at a time! You were doing great, Cole - practice makes perfect. The bale you wrecked can be used as bedding for Ellie when she doesn’t want to come in this winter lol
Something can be said for fuel savings, time savings, and wear and tear.
Jeff doesn't get enough credit or camera time. More Jeff.
The Hay Hiker is quite the machine. Do you see buying it? Great Job as usual Cole. Always enjoy your vlogs.
not since we are getting close to the end of haying season
Another thing I love is that you use loader tractors!
Your Dad cracks us up!!!

Good quality video thanks for taking the time to share 👍
We got a hay hiker we love it it’s a 1400, 14 bales she can haul! Nice 👍 Video!🇺🇸
I enjoy watching you guys working together to get the jobs done and enjoy watching the demo equipment to see how it works keep up the good work
Thanks for sharing and have a nice safe day.

Great video miss hay time like hell did it for about 30 years
I really enjoyed watching this video think u for sharing it with us keep them coming and think u for all the work that you'll do can't wait to watch the next one
Glad you enjoyed it
The drone shots really show the amount of work you all have done. That hay hiker is massive.
You need to try the Morris hayhiker 14000. 14 bale picker with one arm. We run one and wouldnt go with anything different
Great team work you boys .....deserve all the success you can get !!! so good to see family operation in full swing ...cheers from Australia :) !!!
And that (Brian) is why it’s nice to have one old International around. When I can’t stomach the thought of changing another PTO shaft I go to the tractor that always has both at the ready.

Really enjoying your channel. More Mom and Dad please. How are her flowers doing?
Thanks for video.
Love your videos guys keep it up want to be a farmer some day to. Love seeing people make bales and move them!!
Great video Thanks for all y'all do

looks like a sweet machine, i think i would look at the 14 if you had bigger farms like yours or if you got the 7 i would be inclined to run it just in the field not field to storage.
I reckon if you took that out to the field an hour or so before the tractor trailers you could work up a field edge working towards far end of the fields, then clear from the back of the fields bring all the bails back to the entrance where the tractor trailers collect and run them back to storage, granted some will say its double handling i get that, but i think you could get enough bails back where the tractors wouldnt need to run all over the field to collect you could do the collecting they do just the pick up and storing which would speed it up , if the weather is looking to be bad and you needed to move super fast so as to save bails from getting spoiled it would pay for itself in the long run.
If you got one unit running across the field collecting it would save on fuel and the ground would get less compaction over all which would help with drainage, im thinking how your fields are prone to getting water logged, i maybe over thinking things here but i think both 7 and 14 could serve a purpose on your farm, 14 if you wanted to stick to standard way, 7 could serve a purpose if used like above.
Looks like a good bit of kit either way
running the 7 would save bth tractors time hitching and unhitching too
You should check out the Anderson RBM 2000 it's a 20 bal hay wagon
again, great multiple camera angles, that's a cool way to keep the videos more interesting that a single shot. Kudos! And the hay hiker, daaang. That's cool. Ummm, wow, Ellie. Tough call on who to run to! Thanks for the ever growing number of videos that are a pleasure to watch. How the heck is Lake Sonne still even muddy?
You probably "need" the 14 bale mover especially since you've got a bit of a haul to get them yarded. Looks like a great piece of equipment!
it would definately need to be a 14 bale
Would a 14 baler fit through most gates?
Not necessarily, could always use the smaller mover to gather all the bales in a field into one long pile. Then the loader tractors don't have to drive around much to load trailers up.
What is the price of such a machine?

Loved the hay hiker. You and your dad are so lucky to be able to farm together. I wished I would’ve had that opportunity!
must be nice to have all the toys
great video, like the bale carrier , great job
This is some really good stuff. I love it keep it coming . I’m a Physical Education teacher here in Georgia but I feel like a farm guy. Keep ‘em coming I will watch. Thanks!!
I always hate cleaning the barn out but love seeing clean and ready for a new batch of calves.
Cool piece of equipment and a productive day. Don’t you know the human that feeds the dogs are always their favorite. Probably mom.
Look at a Kramer bale retriever out of Nebraska.
8,12 or 14 bales.
We have a Kosch Balehandler - had to chuckle on the bale shifted while trying to load. There’s always one that no matter what you do, it won’t load until you’ve torn off the net wrap.
That was a sweet machine to pick up bales, it’ll go nice with the baler you showcased on another video. Saves time! Ellie’s favourite person is probably the one who feeds her, lol. I loved the part of the video where you camera was inside the manier truck…going going gone, right underneath. I was thinking it would get all chopped up at some point, but no, you’re getting really good at those video shots! Fun video, as always. Will you show a shot of your moms flower garden again this year? They were stunning. 👍❤️
Very nice video, thank you.
Glad you liked it!
We have one of those and they work pretty good. Minus points if you don't line up to the bale right, it won't load and the cylinder that works to load the bale is quite low and if in an imperfect field, it will gouge the field or get packed with dirt. Otherwise it beats a loader and trailer every time.
Cole, this was just a very, very good video! You did a good job of the demo of the Hay Hiker and you will just get better with demos as you go. The manufacturer, distributor, and your contact would like to see their names on the screen - that's understandable and will draw you more offers. You will get lots more offers to demo equipment and implements, and if you associate with 5 or 6 manufacturers/distributors/ag companies like seed and chemical suppliers, they can keep you very busy at the farm shows in the offseason. That is very lucrative and allows opportunities for collaborations with other RUclipsrs which is the very best way to grow your channel. Keep up the good work. You are on your way!
Oh wow I am so far behind on watching your guy's Video's, one day I will be caught up, One thing about this , I sure Love watching your guy's journey.. So many memories come my way .. thank for sharing.
Hey cole I enjoy the vedio and that new piece of equipment you was running that would save a lot of trips in the field I been working on the barn today and a friend of mind was helping me and it was a hot one today I wish I could have something like that to move hay stay safe and your family to looking forward to the next vedio and tell Jeff I said hey to stay cool cloe talk to you again in a day or to
I dunno Cole... That bale looked already damaged before you even touched it. I think you had a perfect 7 on that load. 🙌👏
