WHX?? 48,815 #1 Posted May 5 (edited) Nice little show put on by the North Woods Club. Couple dozen big tractors and a good hand full of GTs on display. Was somewhat on the way to my cabin and had to run the closed to move some furniture and had some extra room for the 1054 mule so what the heck. Not a lot of plowing but most big tractors were pulling three or more bottoms so some ground was covered. Only myself and a youngun on a JD were the only GTs plowing! @Streetrodchev says he plowed here one year and lots of field trash. Same thing this year. Picked corn with extra long stalks that should have been chopped. Some old shool trip plows were having lots of issues plugging. No coulters mounted here that would have been asking for it. Lots of ROCKS were my issues. Lots of big softball sized, many melon sized and a few bowling balls. Another problem was being in the same furrow as the big tractors. Those guys were turning a foot deep furrow. I swear one run I saw a chinaman looking up at me. Tilting at a 45 and scraping the tranny on the land side was common. A tractor running 23s would have been hanging up. I shoulda started my own rows. Edited May 5 by WHX?? 4 4 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She has been right so far. 😜 The JD guy is Evan Killips. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
