I rake 1st crop hay so the hay can dry a few hours before we baled it. the bales turned out great!

    I won't say you made "quick work" of 56 acres, but the video demonstrates huge time savings over the time it would take for a bar rake to cover the same ground. I like your newscast headline as the drone ran into the back of the rake. A little humor goes a long way. Thanks for the video.

    We only rake ahead of the balers..... better for us if hay is spread out should it get rained on....(Coastal Bermuda---Grass)... we had some get rained on this past week and when it was raked the next day there was still a lot of color , but 109 degree heat index will dry it out fast.... dry you out just as fast

    I like this rake. It's easy to use and I myself used one years ago on my uncle's farm

    Oh how many times I have raked double rows into single, only to go back and the wind had picked up while I was gone and blown those fluffy single rows of alfalfa over to the next county!!!

    Hey , I could use some advice....... a buddy of mine has an H&S Wheel Rake for sale at a great price........ my biggest worry is they will pull EVERYTHING off the ground.......... are you able to adjust them to skim the ground and pick up hay only?

    All I know. It would not be good to have hay down now in NC Iowa. Rain, rain, and rain. If it is not raining it's hot and very humid. But on the bright note. You always have great videos.
