Mowing Haylage 2024 was a struggle! Part 1

[@timwilkinson8023]

Interesting stuff Andy and a reminder how much tech is on a modern tractor for us 80' boys. Thanks for posting.

[@jaapbruijn1300]

In the time you are ready to mow I would have mowed half the field in the 80-ies.😄

[@rl3898]

yes a lot of messing about just to avoid steering the tractor !

[@jaapbruijn1300]

@@rl3898 yes. Is it worth it??? I mean….all those costs?

[@nigelhales874]

Bit late watching interesting again don't normally see these mowers normally the butterfly one, s lots of grass with all the rain we had Good luck

[@MarkSpry-s5s]

Great video Andy ! Bailed small hay bales today stacking tomorrow joy!

[@wulliewhyte544]

Great video Andy hopefully you didn't get too many thistles in the grass when the mower blocked😂

[@charleshart6992]

Excellent video - certainly have a great crop of grass there

Looks like it was a bit of a fight mate but you kept your cool and carried on top work 💪

"Ok, so the offset is to the right" while pressing left.😂

[@markyoull6744]

great video andy

[@ianmackinder958]

After unblocking the mower iam sure I could see real sweat on your brow 😂

[@Grover91]

That bale count doesn't surprise me. The little field next door to me is about 4.5 acres. They got over 70 large square bales off it 🙈

[@jimbostruckingvids8173]

great video. 👍🏻

[@leogilbert5105]

Great video. How come you don't have itec set up to do both mowers on one button?

[@Itsafarminglifeforme]

So I can put the up and down separately on a & b

[@leogilbert5105]

@@Itsafarminglifeforme fair enough. Personally I'd probably have the itec set up too do both on the button then have them individually on a and b as well. That way got the itec for the easy runs and individual control for the hard ones

[@alastairatcheson1407]

What is the JD model? Curious to see the power she is putting out.
Recently got a case with front PTO. Was considering running a front mower as well.

[@X1Trickle]

great video Andy, looking at the grass, lets say 1400 Bales and almost a tank of fuel?
i'm guessing you where setting up the mowers with iTec?

[@Itsafarminglifeforme]

Cheers no I didn’t bother with itec when mowing because it’s so easy to have them operate up and down on the joystick a & b
