I have fond memories of running our IH 990 haybine morning after morning in the summer. Used the IH 1066 on it quite a bit but when that tractor was needed elsewhere, we’d use the 966, the 706, or even one of the two 450s that were on the farm. Probably around 1978 or 1979 we had 100 acres of alfalfa in northern Illinois. Someone else would be raking all morning with the M or the 300. Then, after a quick lunch, the NH 273 baler would get going making small bales and kicking them into kicker wagons. Chores and milking would start around 5:00pm but I always tried to stay on the baler and fill all the kicker wagons. They would get unloaded after milking in the morning while two of us were out cutting and raking again. Great memories of working with my father and two brothers.

I enjoy getting out on my Johndeere and cutting my yard,,,enjoy watching this just bas much,,,nice and calming,,stay safe,,🇺🇸😍

You look happy as a clam! I'm living vicariously through you until I save enough to buy my own piece of paradise

Enjoy watching people work their land .......

Very relaxing video, I especially like the 'ride along' camera angle.

Nice job 👍 It’s nice to see a guy getting the job done with equipment that the Bank doesn’t own ! That’s what I do ! Our 656 was our big tractor when I was growing up ,they are awesome tractors ! My Dad was frugal and made things last !

Love cutting hay great video

You put a lot of work into making this vidio. It showes. GREAT JOB!

Great camera work and editing.

Your the first one I’ve ever seen make the back cut first when mowing.

Still plenty of life left in that mower and tractor (and the farmer... save your ears, wear some protection.) Nice vid and camera work.

Second time I watched is video. Cutting the hay part reminds me of my kin folks and their farms.

Them 656 are good hay tractors

That’s some good lookin’ hay!

Replying to a year old video, but here goes. I would rather listen to the sound of your machines than music. Kind of like you listening to the cows eat grass I guess. Other that the music, I really enjoy your videos, and watch every video you upload.

I just subscribed! Would love to see your entire haying process. Raking and Baling videos are really enjoyable too. God Bless and keep up the good work.

Love ur videos. Very well done!

That's a nice looking setup. We are lucky to get two cuttings a year where we are in Kansas. Keep up the great TV.

I like the way he explains stuff

Love that you use the old internationals! Is there anyway you could make a video possibly showing and explaining any problems you have had with the haybine and the pros and cons of it
