You cannot give me too much of this footage. Loved baling in my youth.

[@HumbleHaymakers]

Thx for watching.

Glad you got it! That was a good bunch of hay for only a few trips around the field.

[@windrowfarm]

Nice job! Always a good feeling to squeak it in and beat the weather

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

Even though it was just an equipment test plot, I'm glad you got the hay in before it rained!

[@DennysCountryLife]

That baler makes some nice bricks! You have a great setup there

[@HumbleHaymakers]

Thanks for stopping by - yes the JD baler really makes some nice bales of hay.

A 348 is a very good machine , had one for a long time and a kicker . Design my own wagon never lost a bale after i did . Built two have no idea where they are at today .........

[@keithfeller8957]

Someone should create a video game that consists of baling and aiming the kicker. Get points for number of bales in wagon and points off for misses. City slickers would realize how hard it can be!

Hay looks great baler just putting them out. Yesterday I was able to bale and get 98 bales with the John Deere 338 moisture hovered around 12 to 16%. The John Deere 327 with #40 ejector was not tie.... right side need to figure out why and I dont know much about knotters. Have a great day thanks

Just found your channel and subscribed. Watched your dealer video which is my JD dealer. So you probably farm close to ours.

I have a John Deere 337 with 42 kicker ,if anything gives you trouble will be the kicker .

Great setup does the 348 push the 5055d around? Being that the 5055d is a little lighter on weight and size?

[@HumbleHaymakers]

The 348 does not push the 5055d around at all or cause over heating or outward stress on the tractor. It is at ease with the baler and loaded kicker wagons. Thx for watching…👍

[@matthewdavis4081]

@Humble Haymakers it looks like a great tractor. From the camera side of things just wondered if if the baler pusher the tractor with each stroke. Getting ready to bale small squares tomorrow here in Central Ohio. I am running a jd 4030 diesel and a jd 336 and no kicker. Stacking the old fashion way. Have a safe and wonderful hay season

[@jamesmorrison1884]

Hello again I was wondering what video you showed the spray preserve. How you set it up. Thanks
