Great vision and sound 👍

Just love the old JD twin cylinder models, nice to see em working as intended!

[@deepsleep7822]

Love hearing those 2 cylinder Poppin’ Johnnys run.

[@tomperley8399]

I grew up making hay with 2 cylinder Deere’s, just listening to this vid brought back a lot of good memories. And if you’ve never gotten equipment stuck, I don’t think that you’re truly farming.

[@AhTechus]

So grateful and appreciative of people like you

[@roberthughes2665]

Wish my hay field looked that nice. Fantastic stand of hay.

[@BrodieBr0]

Love this! Good old tractors and equipment can still get the job done because they were built to last. I was born in 68 and enjoyed growing up listening to Johnny Poppers on my farm and everyone else's back then. Still have an old JD G and an A running on the farm today. Thanks for the video, god bless!

[@dennymarquart2665]

Good stand of hay for you

One of the best sounds ever!

@@reaperhunter7297 I driven two of these two cylinder John Deere’s! My grandpa‘s model A that was the first thing I learned to drive and for five years I had a 1949 model B that I bought when I was still in high school Man do I miss that tractor today! Sold it unfortunately! It’s hard for people to understand who has not grown up with these tractors! That two cylinder pop brings back wonderful memories!

[@garethstott]

That`s a good looking field.

[@knothead8251]

The 720 is one of the best ones that jd made

[@phibber]

thanks for sharing, learned to drive at 12 years on my uncles farm, Grandpa had a jd h,oliver hart parr,couldnt part with Queenie and Barney,12 cows 40 acres and 9 children.He bought the 2nd auto matic manure spreader, the implement dealer took the first one. Grandpa had nice new/newer machinery, hay loader with beautiful rose mauling, I think grandpa had a pretty good life

[@matthewdavis4081]

720 is doing a great mowing. I loved watching the big horse pull out the 720. Great video and can't wait to see the next one.

[@waynedenton7124]

Awesome videos love to see the old tractors working in the fields

[@curtmcelvain1749]

Awesome video! Love the old 2 cylinders.

[@aaronjarvenpa1743]

I love mowing hay and the smell of fresh cut hay

[@danw6014]

Mowed alot of hay with a 1219 moco. Never care for it. It was on a small dairy I worked on and we ran it with a 4010 diesel or a 7040 Allis. I had a 489 New Holland that worked good which I ran with my 730. I mowed a lot of hay on a tank of fuel with that tractor. Good luck. I mowed my first field tonight. We haven't had a long enough stretch of good weather to cut dry hay.

[@bombardier3qtrlbpsi]

I use a NH 488 haybine. It's been a great machine. Under a shed all its life. Soon it will be looking for a new owner. Nice to hear the old two banger.

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent video Brandon :) yes some years are wet not much sunshine heat also other years can so dry with less rain too and always enjoy got in machinery also tractors plus crops do too! I remember back in 1988 & 1992 to 1994 was wet years on farming with my late dad also uncle his bother and was rush to plant crops and rush take off in Ontario Canada were I live ! One feild on home farm had hay grew up nice but muddy to take use 2 tractor to cut off and when did silo corn took 4 tractors to pull corn chopper plus Farm Hand wagon to get off feilds and even grain in combine plus pick corn to! Remember my dad also uncle what sloppy years and need retirement to rent land out on home farm ! They were both piss off!

[@matthewschlichting5962]

Best way to make older tires look new is to mow or rake hay!

[@daddio7249]

The first tractor I drove was one of my dad's 520s, I was 7 (1959). He sent my younger brother and me across the creek behind our house to some new ground he was clearing. We had to start the tractor, put it in low, jump off the back, and toss roots and sticks into a cabbage cart attached to the back. We used it because it had a hand clutch, we were too small to use the Farmall H with a foot clutch.

[@johnalexander4356]

I do enjoy the sound of that old 720.

[@jeffferanec4526]

Nice lookin' hay field (short of the wet spot) should make some nice mixed hay. Thx for sharing the video today Brandon!

[@thegreenerthemeaner]

I always mowed 3 rounds around the outside then went up the middle in a straight line, sometimes dividing the field 2 or 3 times. Took a little more time to mow, but saved time raking and baling.

[@thepubliceye]

I like watching the old tractors still working. That hay looks way past its prime though.

[@joeldavis8851]

The hay around here is past it's best nutritional value too. Wasn't fit weather for baling. Hopefully the later cuttings will be better.

[@LordByron444]

No way I could listen to a Johnny popper all day.......

[@artillerest43rdva7]

always amazing how the 2 cylinders are such work horses! they are old, but you are able to work on them, and use them still farming for years to come! great video, sorry about the muck, you are not ever able to escape “the muck factor”

[@mfreund15448]

I used to mow with a 4010 flail mower and rake with a hand start B. I always loved the 4010 because it had an AM radio!

[@lonniemaynard5226]

Nice looking field all mowed.

[@dirtgrainsteel]

It was lol its a bean field now

[@HighGearAutomotive]

"Shouldn't do it but do it anyway" Every guy has done LOL. Have never mowed hay but now heat & sweat that's for sure!

[@l337pwnage]

We always had self propelled swathers. (ya, we were spoiled ;) We did have a pull behind green chopper, but we hardly ever used it. Mostly if we had to clear out an overgrown area.

[@davidalsum7713]

Cab tractors were a luxury back in the 60 to 70*s

[@laurelrowe5536]

We had an old 720 on the farm I grew up on. Very reliable old tractor. I do not remember any of the bad parts of working hay, but we used a farm-all H for that chore.

[@JaredJanhsen]

My dad used to bale wheat straw with an LPG 720. We had an ancient New Holland square baler that had a big Kohler or Wisconsin (can't remember which) engine on it rather than being PTO driven. My grandfather purchased the baler before he got the 720, his first tractor with live PTO.

[@williammatzek4660]

Brandon may be we should think this! If we want a mud hole found , your the guy for the job!

[@brittblanton8342]

Great video Brandon, I like the sounds of the older tractors and the hay looks great also 👍🇺🇸

[@00nutt]

That's my dream tractor. My dad and I rebuilt an LP standard version with all the accessories. Then when he retired he sold it. One day I hope to have one!!!

[@georgedavidson1221]

That grass looks natural native

[@cocobean7391]

We still use our 2 cylinders to put up hay

[@nellsonstout7001]

Don’t feel too bad. My cousin had to limp a genesis home around 5 miles at 6 mph today🙃

Back in the day I ate the hot days like candy, plenty of water and just lean into the heat mow, rake, stack bales on the wagons and up in the barn up young and dumb.

[@phibber]

one year was real wet we really tore up the hay field. had to hook the 501 ford to the case 400 to get out .had knee deep wide ruts in that rented field

Some times a cab is real nice.

[@peteschiavoni]

Like in the Hot Crazy Matrix- that’s the No Go Zone

[@br927]

I believe the 720 diesel was the most fuel-efficient tractor 2-cylinder JD made!

[@CharlesWT-TX]

At the time they were made, the two-cylinder diesel engines were about 20% more fuel-efficient than their nearest competition. But John Deere had pushed the two-cylinder engine design about as far as it would go. The market wanted more horsepower and a faster throttle response. And that required more cylinders and faster engine speeds.

[@RJ1999x]

@@CharlesWT-TX in reality, that's BS

[@richardwood262]

I use to cut Alfalfa with a Massey Harris 44 Special with an old Oliver cycle mower, cut hay until it's done. I see you're are to have to rake for round bailer.

Ooooh man. If that was 134 miles south, I’d be all over it

You need to bury a tile there

That was alot of field for that ole 720 lol

[@dirtgrainsteel]

these old tractors used to cover a lot of acres back in the day and they still have it in them it just if the guy in the seat has the grit to stay in the seat these old girls aren't for everyone you got to love it to cover that much ground
