That's not good... Call the John Deere!

** So as you can see Mike got himself into yet another sticky situation, and this time he's fully loaded with fertilizer which = he can't get himself out.
Donovan or (Dono) is now on route with the John Deere 9620R to help pull Mike out.

I couldn't tell if the video was sped up or if that was just Mike at speed. Loved every minute of it. Thanks Mike.

[@mikemitchell2554]

Haha 😆 it was sped to 4x and 2x depending on the clip.

[@peyji_traveler]

another stuck.hey mike what happend to you????😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@bigdaddyhognuts9413]

The KING isn't stuck when he pulls himself out. Good job Mike. YOU ARE THE MAN!

[@sandy7299]

Most impressed to see how you got that out You have the experience to know what to do in that situation, that can't taught This is why you as farmer are farming that land Because there are millions of people out there who cannot do that They might have the money to buy it but they could not do your job And there are lots of folk relying on the food you/we produce

[@flushmammadrama]

Look at how many times he’s been stuck lol

[@mikemerrill175]

The tow strap is an impressive bit of engineering

[@stephenshepherd6854]

Hi Mike. Great videos. You could fill the cart full and use half of it seeding the firm, dry ground parts then do the wet bits with the cart half full. Or rice grows well in wet lands, paddy fields.

[@Superintendent-iy9zv]

Great video! I've been farming for 53 years, never got a rig that BIG STUCK! Gotta say you kept a positive attitude and did a great job by yourself!! I've been stuck in 200 or 250 horsepower rigs but that was impressive. Keep up the good work, God bless and be safe!!👍

[@leddielive]

Mike's just pleased to have some more footage! 😀

[@timothybailey7118]

Still thinking Duals on Ernie with an old ground drive grain drill would be the ticket in those convoluted wet fields. Lighter, smaller.

[@billwhitman1529]

Mike, I really do admire your tenacity. I would have been looking for help a lot earlier.

[@SBEARD12345]

A second stuck.... You might end up beating the local record at this rate. Great video, thank you

[@travishildebrandt3631]

I just got off the phone with mr. Bloomberg. I told him about your situation he says if you couldn’t get it unstuck it should grow😆

[@gavinperry7237]

The next stuck which we all know will happen may have cart half full so you cover all aspects of how loaded cart is 🤣😂

[@palma8120]

😀

[@ww.x0]

that ladder going up when not in the tractor would drive me INSANE

[@jasonyan6446]

Great video👍 Mike，this is real farm life and i am enjoyed

[@sividproductions6591]

Those rear weights on the John Deere need to go on the front axle because the heavier the drawbar pull, you get a weight transfer from front to back , causing more torque on the rear diff. When free of load , the tractor should be 60% front 40% rear. I specialise in tractor weight balancing. Also, tyres pressure should be no more than 7 psi front and 9 psi rear Hope this helps

[@webluke]

The muffled sound of Mike's backup beeper is the same sound as the UPS driver's truck backing up to our house, and it keeps triggering my young Lab into thinking someone is at the door.

[@davidlogel2350]

I’ve had to pull on our 3320 at a 90 degree angle to the hitch. Only saving grace was that it was muddy enough that the big steer tires just skidded once the hitch maxed out it’s ability to turn. It wasn’t pretty but I got it out with no damage.

[@billysteichen6572]

You should build a deck on the hitch to store the strap and clevis. That way there isn't so much having to carry it all the way around the drill. Of course the thought of having to carry it may deter the desire to keep pulling when you shouldn't.

[@techman8817]

I really like the look of the tractor, sad it got stuck. Maybe they needed wider and longer treads.

[@SoWhatIfI...]

Your a patient guy! Equipment clean up is gonna take a couple days after all that. Hava a good one.

[@brenthoopiiaina4436]

Very impressive Mike, enjoyed watching the team, (me myself and I)...lol

[@loadblock4995]

Please get a shackle to fit your hitch to the master link of your strap. Safe travels. Thanks for the great content 👍✌️

[@keenanfaure9313]

We finished seeding the day after you took this video I’m interested to see your tired tractors performance we run quadtracs and farm in the same area of your north farm

[@minergate4066]

Good job getting it out of there on your own, that was hard work you did amazing. Excited to see how the John Deer will do in comparisson in the wet ground

[@halwilliams1682]

That really looks discouraging. I'm guessing that after a long stressful day it's nice to go home to your family!

[@jc7654]

mud and tracks don't mix , if they get mud in the centre it'll bugger the gide lugs, then the track has trouble with staying straight in the under carage. only thing that's in your favour is it's not slop . we have country over here we call Sunday country, because it's usually too wet Friday and too dry Tuesday. and we also have red soils that you can not tell if it's wet or dry by the look of it as it doesn't change colour or appearance , makes for very tricky farming at times 😁👍

[@LukaArtelj]

You forgot your strap. 😱😱😱 I love videos when you film yourself what you do and explain what you do 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@taylorjennings2218]

I love that you ignore the stupid stairs and just go around😂 i hate that about our challenger

[@themoo908]

It is NOT stuck when you can unhook and drive out. That is simply, hung up. It is stuck when you age another machine pull you out.

[@keenanfaure9313]

We run a tow between cart so every stuck needs another tractor

[@makoisland8488]

You know, you could build yourselves a basket there on the tongue of the drill for the strap instead of carrying it all the way to the rear of the cart and back every time you use it. When I saw you carrying it there at 14:33 all I could think of is one of those guys in a strongman competition trying not to get a hernia while carrying some huge concrete boulder. Thanks for the great videos!

[@michelpicton8357]

Thanks for taking us along

[@briananderson7008]

I wish you could done a timer on the time that you got stuck and the time you got out. Great video thats for the behind the scenes 😀

[@John-nc4bl]

A fast burn-out across the field to clear the mud out of the tracks between the vee bars would have helped for traction.

[@tigerdefensesystems]

LOL you'd come out ahead forgetting about that heavy seeder and just run a standard no-till drill up there. Less weight, less stucks

[@jasonklabunde6415]

Love the hyperloops. Reminds me of the old Charlie Chaplin movies. Especially when you were unrolling the strap.

[@rongrose3746]

Really feel for you !! A lot of extra work .

[@gavinperry7237]

You know you are REALLY STUCK if both the John Deere and Ashtyn's dad Case have to come to the rescue 💪🚜🚜💪

[@mikemitchell2554]

That's very true, thankfully I don't get that stuck! Haha .

[@gavinperry7237]

@@mikemitchell2554 I once got stuck when I fell asleep and ended up in a slough at the bottom of a hill. Ended up bringing in a HD Winch Truck from the oil patch to pull me out the other side as had harrows behind a cultivar and going backwards wasn't an option. Definitely learnt my lesson that day as the pay cheque took a beating

[@greenislandfarmer6819]

A big winch on the front the the tractor. Works everytime

[@MarvUSA]

What a mess.......I'm looking forward for the results Mike.

[@aCanadianBeekeepersBlog]

Now the question is, how close did you get back into that spot when you resumed lol

[@John-nc4bl]

Great minds think alike, Mike as I typed that previous post before you did the burn-out.

[@richardradawetz8788]

We harrowed all of our wet fields a day or two ahead. Made a big difference

[@gerryvanwoerkom2660]

you might want to make a platform on the hitch for the strap .. will save you walking all the way back to the grain cart

[@jeffrankin967]

My thoughts exactly

[@Tony-pk6ql]

God bless the Farmer.

[@rupertm2542]

Hey Mike, you need a winch of some kind. Something like you see on the back on the combine to draw the table in.

[@lucdelanoy7296]

Should build a strap/rock box for on the drill hitch hope you were able to do all you could and more importantly stay safe doing it.

[@asquithmainlines699]

Happy Canada Day everybody! 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@lobbyrobby]

I like to do this really good trick on our farm, don't get stuck in the first place! I failed 2 times this spring lol

[@daveweisgerber1769]

From someone who has been in this same situation many times, why would you fill that big cart right full in such wet conditions

[@hettro-cv6082]

Good video! high speed pulling!

[@spideybrent]

Hello Mike great videos thanks for sharing

[@davehaugsten9427]

Mike, I'm sorry you got stuck but I got to tell you that was the most entertaining video in a while. The speed it up Montage of you trying to get hooked up to pull out and you could tell that you were getting frustrated you could hear your voice go up and down on the speed it up video, it reminded me of Abbott and Costello Who's on First. I hate to see you get stuck but my gosh they are entertaining you should get 100,000 views or more on this video.

[@glb9024]

Hang a coat on chain link so if it breaks it sends it into ground.

[@carsonneyedley2305]

were barely able to spray out here because its still too wet, southeastern sask (july 2nd)

[@byamrcn]

16:10 Starting? lol Hang in there Mike, hoping you get a good crop out of this.

[@Stubones999]

I would put the strap and chains in the tractor, not the cart, since more weight means more traction... Dad always cautioned me for tilling wet land since it drives the air out of the soil and ends up with less productive soil... But that's in GA...

[@grahampanter4018]

Michael I must say, that your patience with challenging situations, i.e. sticks etc is absolutely amazing, good work. Best Wishes Graham

[@erniecothran3112]

What a mess!! What you need is longer straps.

[@erichartwell1229]

i feel you brother . i was cut wheat with one of the x9s . and put it on the frame . on june the 25th . had to call in the stiger thats never good . i always ask myself the same ? if i had slege hammer or a match . witch one would i use lol . and was none of them but the stiger 12wheel . and it almost didnt get it . out of that new spring . here in southern indiana . this is the 2nd i got to get done the planter is running up my a hole

[@rachelt2482]

Great video Mike! I enjoy your content.

[@timkuehn8888]

Put a block of wood or a stick in the hitch latch so it stays retracted.

[@eof3100]

It would be nice for you if they made a single point connector for that machine like they have on front loader tractors 😁

Good to hear kitty CAT lugging down in the pull.

That’s one mighty fine strap you’ve got there sir

[@sbbolton66]

Would a bungee cord connect temporarily to the hitch hold back not work?

[@davidbetts480]

Hello Mike, when you get stuck like that is it possible to separate the drill and cart to pull them out like that?

[@farmshoffman8475]

So much for tracks being the best thing since rubber tires.

[@hazzawoithe]

New and improved tow between😂

[@RoughRiderBB]

We have a saying - two track is out last and in first, when it comes to wet ground. This in my opinion limits the usability a lot and put four tracks in advantage

[@wallyyuriy8912]

I’d don’t know How u can even think of filming in that situation. Lol. Awesome video mike

[@juliedenisclark3778]

Don’t fill the air cart so full maybe half would be enough in those conditions 👍🇦🇺🤔❤️😂

[@leddielive]

@Julie & Denis Clark - Hi ya, I think Mike said that the cart was about half full when he first got stuck, but I understand what you're saying, a little less weight in the cart would most definitely help prevent future stuck issues. 🙂🇬🇧

[@MrDrainDoc]

Sorry Mike, but that's still not "Stuck". Temporarily inconvenienced!?.....absolutely! Which of course, is a complete pain in the Tuchus! But until another vehicle or piece of motorized equipment is involved in recovery....not so much. 1167: 2.....Mud: 0 Now....the only way to give a fair comparison to the 1167, with the Deere....is to purposely seed in the exact same areas as you accidentally took the 1167. The scientific method at work!.....Stay Tuned!!????
