BIG BUD Day At The Tractor Pull - Welker Farms Inc
This year the Marias Fair hosted a tractor pull and being that we live so close to the fairgrounds we decided to bring down some tractors and give it a try at the sled. BIG BRUTE also gave it a try and did very well except for a sudden downshift at the end that snapped an axle shaft. We probably won't run the BRUTE again in the future but thought it was fun giving it a run at least once.
The sled weighs 45,000lbs and has hydraulic spikes that shoot into the ground for added resistance as well as brakes that can lock up. For our Buds they put on a tow strap so the tractors could not lift the front of the sled up which greatly increased the resistance. You can see just how hard that sled was to pull! Our 525/50 weighs around 52,000 lbs and could just barely keep pulling the sled under max resistance. If we had another 10,000-15,000 lbs the tires likely would not have spun as much and it would have kept going.

Gramps in that silver cummins is a pulling MACHINE! He wins every single year at the pulls just down the road.
Man that pass by at the end. What a triumphant story!
the brute wasn't made to pull anyways it was made to go fast and spray and the full pull was just icing on the cake
Bud's like: "Yeah, so where do you want me to park the sled?"

And big bud pulls ahead on the backstretch heading into turn 3 buds got a full tractor lead. Things ya thought ya would never see, brought to you by the best on you tube. Welker Farms for the win
Good ol country boys having fun with their good ol country toys, so we broke something well let’s fix it and get on with our chores. Love the vid. Keep up the great work
Love seeing the maple leaf flying on the sled. 🇨🇦
God dam ! Imagine the torque that brute put on in order to break that axle 😳😳😳😳
"Yeah he´s back." nice one
If a bud 600 could do that, imagine what the 747 could do. It could, in my head at least, pull two sleds, since fully ballasted it weighs over 100k pounds
It's frightening how fast that brute is!

Sled operator. "Yes I got the big bud stopped" big bud "nope time to crab walk it" In all honest I expected them not to be stopped and do laps with the sled...

It was amazing how hard it pulled. That tow rope made it hard and the spikes that it used. If we had 10,000-15,000 lbs more it wouldn't have stopped. Also that spot it stopped in they had just watered down so it wasn't hard packed. That's why it started going again as it climbed out of the wet ground.

It's too bad that they stopped you and didn't let you see just how much farther it could've gone once it started moving again.
Great to see people having well earned fun. Great to have the resources as well lol
I've only seen one Tractor pull in the UK, in a little village called Garstang in Lancashire some 30 years ago, the winning tractor had a Merlin aircraft engine in.

Great to see you participate in the community. All should be conscious stewards of the land and have a sense of civic duty to be a positive influence in our neighborhoods. Job well done. 👏
Well done Nick. Thumbs up very nice video. Have a nice week everyone
11:20, with the William Tell Overture and the bud racing around the track YES!! Makes my day as a heavy equipment fanatic and musician.
It was a good show, appreciate the sacrifice.
Awesome machine, that Big Brute you guys have. The faith you guys put in your kit is incredible. The belief you have in the Big Brute in astonishing. Ah man, my heart sank, when I saw the Brute make a jerk move at the end of the Big Pull. Man you are Brave to take that on the chin. Your resilience is breathtaking. Even when your down your not out. You guys just dust yourselves down and get on with the job. OK, it broke. No shame. Let's get in fixed, Volia, the Brute is back on the road, proud as punch at 50mph flat out down to road to the next field that needs spraying. Awesome Dudes in Shelby Montana. Hats out to you guys. Numbers Ch6 v24-26.
Welker Farms Inc my new favorit agricultural channel on youtube thank you nick&family.
I'm not much of an expert, but I'm fairly certain most tractor pulls don't have a sprayer class

That might be the world record for the most horses on a horse track at one time. I have seen one 545 in person and it’s a work of art.
Nice to see them pullin, good job Nick
Nice footage of the buds at the tractor pull.
Good tgung about it happening at the tractor pull is that now you know where the weakest link is. Now, you can fix it and you have one hell of a diff axle set up for real work. 😎👍 After all, you had fun and BRAGGING RIGHTS! Not to mention the prize purse. 😀
Great video. And thankful it wasn't a live stream.
First time ever seen big buds do tractor pulling amazing there made of hard steel keeps going
I can't believe I missed this. Always wanted to see a big bud do a tractor pull !
Awesome work guys
Thanks for the video, Nick. Glad to see Big Brute back to work. That thing can fly!
UPLOADED 1 MINUTE AGO THIS IS A PERSONAL BEST!!! AND YES A CINEMATIC! MY FAVORITE!!! :D

Awesome video!! Loved watching the Bud, and the Brute pull!! Great job on the video too, as always. Looking forward to more.
Its amazing how small them axle shafts our compared the the big tires!
The Tractor Pull is a great sport. A lot of creativity, mechanical knowledge and Skill involved. We need to see more young people involved in the sport.
Big Buds ROCK!
Just rewatching this after 3 years, on a different account, oh how many memories this brings back
That was awesome! The pure power of the 525/50!

Roll on Brother
Big brute is a marvel of engineering! Possibly the coolest custom farm sprayer! Also that awesome pulling montage at the end was amazing! Keep it up walker farms! You guys run a amazing KZread channel!
Thank you Hollywood for the video
Next year if you decide to pull again, let us know when it is. That was a show Jake and I were sad to miss. You should check into bringing them down near Billings when they pull with the old steam engines!
Love your channel
Great vid thanks for posting!
Been waiting for this awesome video👍🏻
Gotta love the Brute!! Love the videos, Nick! Keep em comin.
Buds pulled like a Boss!!!
No problem for the big guy. Love that tractor

Andy I am curious where you pulled that number from as it is far from accurate. Planting these buds burn 1/2-3/4 gal per acre. Compare that to new and you'll see it is very very similar.
The wait is over! was excited to see this video. Keep up to the good work!
Great job at the pull!! I bet that was a lot of fun! I don't know how you all keep raising the bar with your videos but you always find a way.
Love your videos keep up the good work
Nice video love your buds and all your works
That's cool , good job guys
Great video! I loved it.
big brute was brutal to the sled and that drive train dang!!
Watching that big bud enter the tractor pull going really slow but pulling it I was like yeah shes gos slow but that big bud wont stop till the earth is ripped in half lol
that´s a really good video. Best wisches from germany, bavaria.
SMR(ShelbyMontanaRailroads)??? ... Nahh... it’s the Big Brute!!! roaming free without a sled. Awesome! The Big Buddies are chewing sleds for breakfast and spit ‘em out, sooo cool 🤩😻💪💪
Just amazing
Them Boys was PULLI'N !!
Greatest tractor and sprayer pull off all time!
Yep he’s back!! Followed by a tour of the track! Top quality. Hope your all well and keep on farming.
Had I planned my summer vacation a little better, I might have been able to travel to Shelby, MT, and witness this first hand. Instead, I'll settle for your viddy, Nick. Well done.
Love the guy in the background going " they built that?" Lol
I like the use of the William Tell Overture.

Great Video ! It is sad the Marias Fair is not what it was when I was a kid in 4H. I had so much fun at the fair .
That's awesome guys. It sucks that the brute broke, but you gotta pay to play, and now you have a cool story to go with it.
At least it was the axle and not a trans or dif. Awesome seeing those big beasts flexing a little muscle for the crowd lol
That thing sure fly's down the road
Beautiful
Looks like fun
