I’m a simple man…….I see Big Bud I click play . Thanks for sharing 👍
Me too 😂👍👍👍
I love seeing Colby sitting on the platform of the tractor just enjoying the ride. Its adorable.
not often you see a tractor with a sun deck😂
He is riding Spot for Jack Rabbits.
in a dream I saw a RAMP that went on the FENDERS and the RAMP FOLDED DOWN BEHIND THE FRONT WHEELs and went down low enuf that the JUMP WAS NO ISSUE for KOBY or any other doggie that ain't MINITURE TOY SIZE anyhow...
and it was on a spring that would hold it UP a bit, for roading... if it needed to get out of the way,,, I THINK there could be a henge on it to swing out and away from the side when ya need to get into that side of the combine/tractor... I COULD DRAW IT UP FOR SOMEONE THAT WANTED TO SEE WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT CUZ THEY WANT TO DO ONE FOR THEIR DOGGIE and my description was ''weirdenglish'' to them... lol
@@JJKHaywood and he did not see one rabbit either poor kobe
@@alexmikhael5061 A suggestion; take said ramp idea and have it hydraulicly fold & unfold
Don’t know why anybody would want to vacation anywhere else but USA so much beauty in our country
Year was 1968. Dad bought a new 4020JD with a 4 bottom plow..and gave me the privilege to break it in..160 acres of set aside land ..old grass and alfalfa ...it was some hard plowing and a lot of bugs..Badgers..fox..gophers lost there home
Bonjour la famille Welker super vidéos j espaire que ton fils c est pas trop grave on le vois avec un plâtre au bras droit bon courage à tous la famille bonne fin semaine et début week-end
My grandpa was a wheat farmer for 40 years. Watching this makes me wish I followed him into it instead of IT.. :) These vids are therapy.. thanks!
In Georgia we have 100 acre fields, surrounded by woods. It's amazing to see your wide open spaces. God bless you and your family.
Bob and Mrs, Thanks for the "short break" from the farm. Beautiful country.
Yes Big sky country!
2:22 Glad to hear Chemicals are still in use. It gives my food that kick of flavor I get excited about.
Are you a farmer?
Coby just chillin' on the left front fender (on critter watch), just a happy happy dog !! Coby is "living the dream" (the doggo version) !!
In the mid 60's I rented a neighbor's farm that had been in the first long term reserve program, didn't have a Big Bud, used a 530 John Deere gas and a 3-14 semi-mounted plow, of course it was only 80 acres! I was only 14 then, plowed up plenty of rocks too! Planted soybeans there wasn't much for herbicide then was a weedy mess the first year.
It makes me really happy to see the Big Buds in such nice shape. Every time I see a beat up mothballed Versatile 850, it just breaks my heart.
Watching the Big Bud pull the ripper through the sod was mesmerizing. I think that is exactly what that machine was made for. Drone footage was beautiful.
Awesome scenery, and thanks for the history. I also was glad to hear that the Chip Monk is able to take care of the Squirrels spirituial needs.👍😇
I was born in 83, all i've ever understood about crp is bad, "big brother" type stuff, apparently what i remember of it, was my my great uncle and grandpa talking about it was, the farmers would only get like 1/16 of what they would have normally got, and some farms where basically forced into doing it, someone (county / state ??) told my uncle he was going to put in 16,000 acres into crp if he liked it or not, I dont know all the details of it, and I remember very little but I do remember my uncle swearing he would burn half of west texas before they touched his land, and kill anyone who tried to take it, (again, most of what i remember is sketchy at best). Plus he owned the cotton gin / warehouse and bought and sold cotton from all over west texas,then moved into farming insurance side of it when i was old enough to know what was going on (guess it all worked out in the end), guess my much older cousins didnt want anything to do with farming.
Man and his dog. WOW! What a nice relationship. Enjoy him while you can. It says a lot about how Bob cares for others. . . . What a wonderful story. I am sending this video to my cousin Terry, same last name as mine. He will enjoy it. Blessings. 😊
The dog is just enjoying life on all the big tractors.
I have now decided to make a trip up your way, but not in the winter, I enjoy your family and the farming stuff as I don't know squat about farming, oilfield, yes, my job 40 years....God bless and be safe
We’ve been breaking up CRP slowly in our farm as well, we aren’t breaking up 500 acres at a time, but this year we took a quarter and got it ready to go.
When i catch videos like this i so long to come back ro NW montana. We lived out there for 6yrs in spokane. My Territory encompassed the flathead valley. I drove a 49 caddilac ambulance. As my service vehicle..
Lot of good memories and good people. Thanks for this video
We're a no-till operation and I know every area is different but in SE Washington (Asotin County) we've had good results with CRP takeout using a mow, heavy harrow, and chem-fallow order of operations ahead of the 1st crop. Good luck fellas and keep on farmin' 👍🏼
We've done both. But the grass wasn't growing to kill with RT3 and we wanted to seed next fall.
You should be a tour guide, Bob!
I liked you description of the hydroelectric dam. Your eyes really sparked when you talked about watt it's all about.
Coby on the Big Bud fender is my VERY favorite view of the farm!!
I have never seen the dam but travel over the bridge at Wardener BC which is north end of the reservoir all the time. The lake has been kept at a nice level all year.
Bob I’m so glad you take the camera with you!! You and the boys are very informative and very inspirational keep up the good work and keep promoting Montana!
I love seeing them working on the farm, always full of energy
We run a pass with a chisel plow with straight points on our wheat ground, but we usually have to do a pass with a disc to get it to go in the ground. I’m impressed with how well the Friggstad bites in!
It will bite hard if you drop it in
15:00 The wife and I were there this summer, pretty cool. Have a good friend that lives in Libby. Cool to see you visit there, it is beautiful
I did that ride on my Harley, a few years ago. Had some friends that used to live up there. What a beautiful ride that was.
Gotta love Papa Bob and his best buddy Coby hanging out working. Sitting on that front fender just watching had me cracking up what a great dog and remember what dog spelled backwards is. Congrats on picking up the 500 acres I know it will do well for you all with your faith and hard work. CHIPMUNK LOL
A little western Montana geography lesson. Stunning. The mountain views! I have had the pleasure of doing a little backpacking in the Appalachians and the southern Rockies, but not the northern Rockies. That rugged country in western Montana is truly breathtaking. Thanks so much for taking us with you and sharing some of the Big Sky state with us.
Appalachians are part of the Blue Ridge MTS. The Rockies go up thru Washington state and the most dramatic part are in Canada.
@@dennispalmer6007 ...I think they know this.
Actually Dennis it’s the other way around. The Blue Ridge is a subset of the Appalachian Chain which goes from Georgia up to Maine. Some would also question your statement about the Rockies in Washington state - Many geologist claim those are a separate set of mountains known as the Columbia chain and are separate geologically from the Rockies
@@Manoffire260 Cascade mountains are in Oregon, Washington, and Western BC. Rockies are Eastern BC/Alberta, Montana, Colorado
Spiritual leader of the squirrels, chip monks. Love it one of your best 👍
Nice video of digging up the ground!! Always enjoyed when my Grandpa would plow and get the smell of fresh dirt. Mr. Welker, thanks for your video of your vaca!!!
Here in Indiana we have lots of fields in crp and I would say half of them around my area have been left to let trees growing they are nothing but a thicket of trees a couple inches around just sad cause I remember seeing them farmed as a kid and now you can’t even deer hunt in them because it’s to overgrown lol
Yes, same in my area way north. Most people don’t understand what happens to land that’s just left. It turns into unusable garbage and is very expensive to reclaim.
Took the train through the dam when it was being built and before the 7 mile tunnel was complete for the railroad.
I lost it on the squirrel joke, totally gonna 'borrow' it!
Hi there my wife wants the rocks for her flowers beds. you got Big Bud working hard out there 😎🚜🚜🍵🍵
Bob thank you for showing us how beautiful north western Montana is. Beautiful Gods country
Nice to see Bob up in the neck of the woods I grew up
Seeing the Bud pulling was great and the road trip keep them coming..
Enjoyed your photos of Glacier Park Robert. We have been through it a half dozen times and never tire of it.
Thanks for the vacation footage, that suspension bridge was awesome.
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for showing us all that Montana has to offer ...
Great scenery ...
Great Video ... wonderful family
Thank You
It was GREAT to see the BIG Bud doing what the engineers originally designed er for............plowing the land!
What?! I thought Coby was the love of Bob's life :) Enjoyed the vacation video with the Mrs.!
You're Dad is an amazing man.I enjoy his content.
Thanks for taking us on your ride thru NW Montana. We spent many summers there and it tugs at my heart for memories of my family so long ago.🤗👍.
Enjoyed the tour of northwestern Montana. Was in Libby way back in the 70's. It was in early spring the highway had lots of frost heaves. What a bumpy ride. Lol 😆.
Thank you Mr. Welker, for showing that to . The devide. Because chances are i will never get there in person. Farmed in Illinois to 1987. your farming its a lot different than Burlington Illinois.
God bless you welker family and I'm enjoying your videos. Tell the young man that I hope he gets better soon. Have a wonderful day and god bless you.
I loved the vacation video. That was scenic and beautiful. Where was Coby lol? I love seeing him riding outside the tractor on the fender. Cool!
The bit with Bob exploring Montana was just awesome!
This is xactly what I needed rite now thank y'all for youre hospitality
Love seeing Big Bud at work again, love seeing that unused ground back in production and love the scenery, geography lessons and history lessons that Mr. and Mrs. Welker gave. Thanks for including us in it all. God bless.
That's a beautiful part of America. Thank you very much for sharing that with us!!
Have a great time on your vacation Bob and Mrs Welker
Big bud 1978. Glad its working. Was into farming back in 1970s. Hogs,chicken, dairy,crops. One beef cow,brown. One pony. Child then.
Back to big bud remember the launch or farm magazine advertising big bud. Since the farmer needs a tractor. Hugh tractors 🚜. Great video...
Big Sky Country covers quite as majestic landscape. From the plains west to the Rockies. Great beauty.
Thanks for taking us along on your trip Mr. Bob. MT is so beautiful. It's been 30 years since my last visit and I do so love it up there. It was kind of you to include us and to teach us about the area in NW MT. Your puns are as great as ever. God bless all the Welker Family.
Nice to see the old Friggstad still working…my grandpa Olaf would be soo proud!!!
thanks for the great vews and picking rocks always a great time
I want to see Colby Cheese Dog drive Big Bud. You know, let him put his paws on the steering wheel.Thanks in advance.
Thank you for taking us along on your road trip. I was fortunate to drive through Glacier park o few years ago. I also drove through Shelby a few months ago. Kind of hard to believe how quickly and radically the terrain changes. Very nice part of America to go and visit.
Thanks for the tour and family fun. Work and play can mix. Keep looking up, He is coming soon
Gosh I remember those sweeps way back in Hays SD on a 42,000 acre farm . Those were long days in a Challenger up and down the fields .
Bob, thank you for taking us along on your little vacation trip to western Montana. Wow, that’s some absolutely beautiful scenery!! My sister and brother-in-law have good friends that live in Kalispell and they’ve been out there a couple times to visit. Needless to say, my sister would love to move out there from South Carolina.
almost majestic watching a machine doing what it does best. great videography.
I'd like to thank Bob and Mrs Welker for the History and Geographical lesson.
Wow the wife and I do the same with our side by side , picking rocks on nice fall days
Love seeing those big buds put to work. You guys take such good care of your equipment!
I am constantly amazed by your drone flying Nick, 5:28 is amazing. I was thinking "no way is he going to, yep, he's going to, wow he flew through the middle". I still remember when you were strafing and it hit the bud, man you could tell you were so mad immediately after but you kept your cool. Keep flying!
Thanks for all story's and Views !!
Really enjoyed the vacation stop and seeing Libby and that area
Awesome video. Great seeing Colby enjoying the ride on Big Bud. LOL. The drone video was amazing. New farm land being worked. Oh and the views on your vacation wow. What a beautiful places you got to visit. Thank you for taking us along. Those kids are so adorable. Bet they enjoyed the outing to find rocks. God Bless you all. Awesome video.
It's always fun to see Colby having fun on the farm.
Yes, that's the positive energy I get when I watch this video
Colby is there checking out to make sure you don't miss any!
Thanks for the memory! I camped at Glacier National Park and Jenny Lake in the Grand Tetons 50 years ago.
I compliment all of the Welker family for your courage to keep going in this adverse time of government, oil crisis, and food productions being so hard pressed against our climate as it goes from one type of system to another as it has for eons of years. I really can't hardly believe Coby looks so healthy. Your looking quite well as well Robert. I haven't seen that part of the country since the mid seventies. Just how fast time goes by, and we were having fun at the time... wish I had known you folks then as I had a healthy appetite, a strong body to work hard, who knows... you just might of made a farmer out of this old mechanic
Mechanic skills are a major step towards successfully farming. You were on the road.👍
Love the trip with a bit of family history, and Bob, your jokes and humor remind me of my great grandpa, (also a farmer) many fond childhood memories there, he used to tell me that him being a corn farmer meant that all his jokes ended up being corny. Btw, that CRP land hasn't been farmed for my lifetime, but seeing how the last few years have been, gotta do something to up the harvest.
You live and play in some beautiful country. Thank you for sharing it with us. May God bless you.
Wow that dog on the fender was a 1 in a million. Nice!
Glad to see Bob out enjoying a nice vacation!
I love those adventure and sight seeing vacations.
Great video Nick and family great job picking rocks
Big Bud resembles a farm assault vehicle,LOVE IT!!!
Love the trees whenever they change their colors
Beautiful views on your hike Bob
I love seeing Colby having a great time joining in the adventure. Reminds me of my dog but Colby is better behaved
Making the big ole BUD talk , I bet ! Love the landscape - BEAUTIFUL!
Bobs trip was a nice touch to the video.
Great to see Coby back in his supervising seat on the arch of the Bud!
So good to see that land put back into production. NW Montana is some beautiful country been quite a few years since I have been there. Made a lot of trips to the Whitefish area as that is where my wife was from. Love that area.
Bob's big briefings short and to the point 👍
Love seeing north west Montana! Been there many time! That there is gods country! Stay safe and healthy! Thanks for sharing!
Great job cultivating Bob and Colby
Great family! Great story! Been watching for years. I know it was a tough harvest but god bless! Strength comes from within 🇺🇸😎💪
What a beautiful place you live in. I love the flat wide open space. Great video
Thanks for showing us the continental divide.
Love the big buds, Very impressive being old tractors
Well done Welker Family Now you will have more farmable land to use
Beautiful country, in Big Sky country. Thanks for the tour of the river. Great scenery. Thanks for the video, Bob.
How wonderful to see a modern Sod Buster. THIS is how the West was won. Bravo.
