2021 Half Century of Progress Show Plowing

[@kevinirwin2036]

What an absolutely incredible video. Loved all the tractors, but especially the steam, love the smoke. You could sure tell when the Renner boys were coming, wow. Keep the videos coming.

[@RennerStockFarms]

Thanks Kevin! I love the steam tractors as well.

[@MikeLoveBuns]

Amazing video! Mike from Missouri

[@harrymcmanus7307]

Tks.....love the tractors

[@culmalachie]

what a rich cacophony of sound. Notice that the AC Crawler withthe 8-furrows is not pulling straight? witness the sideways crawling of the tracks - but not much slippage or was that track spinach? grows well in that strong soil. Bet the Greens had a great day with all that Carbon being set free to re-unite with the plants. ;-) . Great video really capturing the essence.

[@JD-oh9vz]

So glad folks are interested in keeping history going.

[@ashtonlewis8580]

Jon and your team, thanks for making the 2021 Half Century of Progress the best one yet. Your great preparation really showed with your superb plowing using very impressive tractors. Nine loads is a real commitment and I appreciate your effort. Grandpa sure can make that 12V-71N bark. Our 850 mile trip from Virginia was well worth it thanks to you all!

[@samdodson2081]

thanks.....love your tractors......

[@RennerStockFarms]

Thank you!

[@bradwarner8933]

Hello John, sure was great meeting you! This video is top shelf. I can’t say enough about your Grandpa. We swapped stories for about an hour, enjoyed every minute of it! What a great show with so many great AMERICANS!

[@RennerStockFarms]

Thanks Brad! We enjoyed talking with you as well!

[@mentholman3201]

"I know John Renner." Haha! Love it!

[@timmckinley8664]

Great video, one of my highlights was to shake you hand and thank you for the channel. The others were when those deeres were in the furrow, rolling it over. Thanks again for all that you share.

[@RennerStockFarms]

Thanks Tim, it was good meeting you!

[@goldingerfarms9357]

I found myself right at 9:39 in the background. It was awesome to see and hear you all converting diesel into noise! I also enjoyed getting to talk to you and your grandpa. I'm definitely going to skip a few days of class in 2023 and bring my 730 and a disk and stay for the whole show.

[@RennerStockFarms]

Good meeting you! You need a plow for that 730 to bring to our show next year!

[@scottwilke3966]

Great video I love tractors red green yellow blue orange and the tires the way they get down and get a hold of mother ? The grip design hasn't changed since farmers quit using flesh and blood horses !! Good to see the iron horses working ! Whole lot of iron working rolling coal !!! The real cool thing about this little shindig was no safety fanatics no helmits no safety baracades no safety people droping us from getting close enough feel the power and smell the freshly turned earth ! Nothing like the smell of fresh plowed soil ( dirt ) at sunrise after a all niter plowing wheat straw back to mother ! Great show thank you kindly !!!!

[@jonathancurtiss4220]

Grandpa was leaning on that 12 cylinder Detroit:) Gotta love that sound!

[@RennerStockFarms]

He gave it everything it had, the crowd loved it!

[@scotthawkins8740]

I was able to see you many times on Friday and Saturday but never able to talk to you !!! You were always busy driving back and forth !!! You have some amazing tractors and enjoy watching your videos !! I believe you are less than an hour away

[@RennerStockFarms]

Thanks Scott!

[@deercreekmechanical]

It was nice meeting you guys and talking with your grandfather about the repowers. I’m at 10:56 in the red old style Kawasaki mule with the white roof just behind the guy in the black t-shirt.

[@joemueth4077]

Thanks for showing us what we missed out on. Your plow was looking sweet on that V-12. Your toys were giving me goose bumps. See you back in Belleville.

[@RennerStockFarms]

Thanks Joe!

[@dougwalker5495]

Thanks for the video.I had it planned to visit the show this year, but Covid stopped that. I sure plan to be at the next one. Cheers from Australia

[@troyplocinski8401]

Looks like your grandpa was in his glory! Good video. Glad to see you guys enjoy your tractors.

He had a blast, thanks for watching!

[@markissboi3583]

12:50 blue jeep handy idea for a small farm .or tilling that tree row au 1970s few farmers here i worked on made these old tandem tractors

[@RennerStockFarms]

The Jeep would be a perfect garden tractor, it even has a PTO.

[@jeffekkel5870]

Really enjoyed the video. Definitely gonna have to move this show up on my bucket list. Thanks guys!

[@RennerStockFarms]

Thanks for watching!

[@johnholliger5136]

Was great getting to meet your grandpa and spending some time chatting with him. I hope I have half his energy when I’m his age. I had the Steiger Cougar 2. Hope to bring it down to your show next year. Thanks for the great video.

[@RennerStockFarms]

That Steiger was a sharp looking machine, I hope to see you guys next year!

[@toddrachelherbrand1823]

Absolutely awesome video every bit of footage was excellent thank you I think the 1206 with the 3 row picker was really neat but all the plowing was my favorite

[@danlowery3235]

Looks like a beautiful day!

[@RennerStockFarms]

The show started out warm, but it was overall a great weekend. The majority of the rain stayed away and the wind was blowing. 👍🏽

[@topfuelkustomz3729]

Once again y’all blew it out of the park on the video good job love them deeres and the sound of those screaming Detroit’s I also saw some tractors in this vid that I never seen before it’s always good to see old equipment working👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thank you for putting us in your video starting the Aultman-Taylor. Thankfully it started pretty well that try, so you didn't have to edit much. It was nice meeting you, and sorry we didn't get together again afterwards. Gives us a reason to come to your show next year. I got to talk to your grandfather while he was loading up on Sunday and as I told him, you folks have an amazing collection of iron. Thank you for showing it off, and keeping it alive!

[@RennerStockFarms]

We hope to see you next year, you guys have a nice Aultman!

You can tell those Allis Chalmers have Detriots in them.

[@dannaumann9758]

One of our farm neighbors many years ago had a “twin hook-up” like those shown. Only his were two small around 1940 AC tractors. Not much power though, he pulled a six foot “one-way”! Years later, another neighbor (large wheat farm), pulled 4 -twenty foot “one-ways” behind a Steiger!

[@perenti01]

hello when i was kid growing up 3 score and 10 years ago i'm sure we had a tractor called a twin city am i mistaken i've never seen one on these old tractor videos. Great video .

Great video Jon! It was good to talk with you on Friday too. I’ll ask again, plz show some JI Case that are in the collection 😉

[@deepwoodguy2]

That was quite some show...i watch a couple of other youtubers, Goldinger Farms, was one that showed your tractors, plowing away... How about getting that blue jeep that plows one furrow at a time, for your next machine?? 😁 I thot that was a train plowing, black smoke chugging along..it just needed a train whistle to make it complete. Thanks for the vid, ✔✔

[@RennerStockFarms]

That jeep was really cool, it also had a PTO and a belt drive. Those two and the three point hitch were all factory options for that model Jeep, really neat!
