Pete, thanks for attending our event. We started this event 12 year’s ago as a memorial for a local farmer and avid puller Dorr Reynolds and added my father Dave Becker to it when he passed away. Any profits from our pulls go to Sempronius Fire Department or the Moravia FFA. We strive to make this a fun and entertaining event for spectators and pullers.

Looks like the john deere did just fine without all them extra cylinders Pete😁

Hi Pete! My name is Callie and I'm 27 years old, for the past few years since college I've been trying to figure out what the heck to do with my life. My dad recommended your channel to me when I expressed an interest in farming/homesteading as my dream job. I came on here to say that I absolutely love your videos!!! I watch your new videos on weekend mornings and often have you on in the background; I always let the ads play through, I appreciate what you do and I hope it makes a difference!! Not only do I learn so much about truly sustainable agriculture, I also feel as if you, Hilarie, and the kids are dear friends! My dad recently gifted me your book, A Year and a Day On Just a Few Acres, and you have very quickly become my biggest role model. Thank you so much for sharing your journey and inspiring this future farmer! :)

HI Pete. Loved it...Hahaha. .."If that don't send chills down your spine, nothing will!". Thanks for taking us to the tractor pull Pete! It was great to see some old tractors out there pulling!

After I went to college, Dad traded for a JD 80 and JD 730, both wide front ends. Someone else commented how big the pistons and cylinders were. Something like 6” diameter and a foot long for the piston. Massive things.

Hilary must be takin care of the farm

I pull with J D 1953 60. I unhook the feed wagon put the weight brackets on ready to go. Super m s and 88 Oliver's are trouble most of the time

I love the sound of the Johnny Poppers. I learned to drive on my Grandpa's "B".

I love tractor pulls. The biggest John Deere 2 cylinder is the 830. 6 1/8" bore x 8" stroke. Thanks for taking us there.

Pete, just what you need for "Just a Few Acres Farm".

Love going to tractor pulls in my pajamas . Thanks for taking us along .

Every tractor pull I’ve Been to you need ear plugs Nice to see the old ones. Thanks for the video 👍

Slowly going through your older videos and really enjoying each one. This was fun to watch!

Good commentary, good show. Looks like you enjoyed yourself.

I honestly watched some of this video and then sent it on to my husband. He'll enjoy it more. Be well.

Pete, my local county fairground hosts a pull each summer. This summer (after watching your channel for over a year) was so much more educated about the tractors and even struck up a conversation with a local FFA teacher who talked me through a Farmall M their group restored for a project and they had there on display. Thanks for your channel and for your positive attitude.

I’m so happy to see that are local pull was on KZfaq and I’m happy that I got to meet you

Thanks for sharing your day Pete! Fun day!

Your best video yet, in my humble opinion. Class of '83 College of Engineering, HOOK'EM!

It can be hard to enjoy things when you're shooting video. Thanks for taking the time to give up some of your experience to share.

Ahhh, memories!! Thanks for sharing. I grew up not close, but not too far away from there in Greene, NY. I grew up working on a dairy farm. We used to go to Tractor and Truck pulls whenever they were around. Again, thanks for the memories.

The antique tractor club I belong to in Michigan has a dead weight and transfer sled pull one weekend every month from April to September. During their show in August they pull all 3 days of the show. The chairman of the transfer sled pulls reported over 2000 hooks this past summer. Antique tractor pulling is alive and well in mid Michigan!

❤️ I’m from a small farming county in Ohio and our county fair has truck and tractor pulls every year. A favorite!💕

As a farm wife I really enjoyed this video. Your commentary helped me understand what was going on with the horsepower, cylinders turbo, speed class, rpm's, weight, stock, tires, strengthen the crank etcand and wonder if they would give you a microphone to help others. Change is not good as it is taking us away from what we small farmers need to survive. It was good to hear your son liked the old tractors best:)

Thank you for showing the tractor pull - i have enjoyed very much

Pete, Loved the video! reminds me of when I lived in Colorado in the 80s! I loved the Tractor pulls!!! I really love your video's!!!!

I’ll be honest with you Pete didn’t care too much about tractors until you taking the time to break it down and showing us the views of the points of how to keep a great i instrument going. I’m enjoying this trip and thanks to you and your wife and your children we get to see and understand farm life.

Oh now you know deep down in side you want one of them 2 cylinder John deers Pete . Lol

Good time with family and friends. Another outstanding video and a break from the market. Poor Hillary.

Great to see you and your children. I agree, tractor pulls, part of the great Americana. I noticed the advertisement for MacFadden on the sled. The are located about 5 minutes from me. Bless.

We attend our local tractor 🚜 pulls every year. They're fun really. Have you ever seen the riding lawnmower pulls? Those are hilarious 🤣 😆

Hi Pete. Very nice upload, the food prices were very cheap. I like your comment at 12.40, this tractor is as rare as hen’s teeth. Here in Oz we are bit rougher, we’d say, as rare as rocking horse s#*t. Cheers from Oz.

Thanks for taking us along!

Thanks for taking us along.

i hope you enjoyed a good day with your dad and kids thanks for the ride along

Thanks for a great commentary! I’ve never understood tractor pulls, now I have an appreciation for them!!

Thanks for the information about the tractor pulls. Your informative narrations add to the quality of your videos.

So nice you can spend the day with your kids. Looks like fun🇨🇦

Much better than watching the drag racers and easier on the ears. Thanks Pete.

I have fond memories of tractor pulls as a kid growing up.

They have lawnmower pulls and kiddie pulls at our annual tractor pull. So much fun to watch.

Pete - I live in NW Ohio near Bowling Green, also known as “Pull Town”. I am very familiar with tractor pulls and the insane amount of mechanical mayhem that goes along with them.

Great video. I love going to truck and tractor pulls. Glade to see you had a couple of the kids with you and your dad. A great family outing. From down here in cajon country stay safe and good luck.

I cant believe u made those green guys happy Pete. After i see so many negative comments saying u only like the red tractors. I hope those green guys r happy now. Have a good day. 😉

you could head out to greenwich ny next year for the washington county fair and see some tractor puls

Thank you for taking me along! I am 76 years old and the "ole heart" doesn't allow me to get out and about very often! Keep up the great work!

"I think this tractor would do better with a few more cylinders." Love it! As a Farmall fan and sometimes tractor puller (1947 H), I love to see red tractors do well in tractor pulls.

Thank you so much for the show. Now I can say I saw my obligatory 1 tractor pull per year. Haha. Thanks Pete!

Love the Chevy Emblem on the hood!! Classic!!! I want one for my '18 Silverado!!! Awesome video Pete!!!!

Good Family fun use to go with my Dad back in the day when grew up in Indiana, now he is gone and I live in Florida haven't been to one since thanks for the video.

Great video' hadn't see a tractor pull in years. Thank you!

Thanks for going to the pull. It was so interesting.

Half worn tires get better traction around here. Glad to see the kids & Pop. J.D. 830 was the near version of the 820 and basically the same machine size wise. Yup. Enjoyed it!!! Thanks Pete! Dave N.

Calling it a cheating contest is appropriate. My Dad used to pull "field class" but has a lot of stories on the shady things guys would do. He found it a point of pride that his field class was actually from the field and just weighted out.

Great video, nice to see all the colors, even those running on more cylinders than they need….lol

Thanks for sharing this. Love the old iron pulling. I remember going to antique tractor pulls where the sled was a flat sheet of iron and as it went down the track, bystanders stepped onto the sheet until the tractor stopped! Then, to add additional weight, they'd put 55 gallon drums of cement onto it. Good times! Not OSHA approved, though. Blessings from Ohio!

Yup, enjoyed the video. Thx for sharing your day.

Pete thanks for sharing your day with us, Darrel

hi Pete and family, this is in response to your comment about people pulling with some things without wheels, my great granddad pulled with a team of Morgan horses and they pulled huge logs.

Nice to meet you and you're family Pete

an appreciative greeting to grandfather! his truck falls into the> VERY GOOD

Pete’s bed head, comb down fail cracks me up....it’s his co-host at this point. 🙃😉

Brings back memories. Thanks Pete.

That looks like a fun day out for you and your family! Thanks for sharing your adventures Pete!

OMG never knew such a hobby existed. Amazing.

Thats awsome you videoed a tractor pull..... my dad n I pulled for years.....we had alot of fun with a a Farmall 400. With a smallblock Chevy 400 in it.... bout 500 h.p.....fun....as Allways god bless you Pete..ur family...and ..ur farm!!!

Yeah, when you get that tubo sizzling and the RPM singing, it makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up!

love tractors 😊

Thanks for bringing us along!

Thanks for taking the time Pete for Making this video loved watching have a great day or night depends on what time it is with you!

Thanks for the video Pete. At our pull in Western NY, where we have six days of pulling and garden tractors included per year, we use a dead pull sled or boat which is very basic. This system is used at horse pulls and is used at many tractor pulls. There can be a disadvantage to letting air out of tires because it lowers the draw hitch and you can loose purchase on the sled. Some people have gone to recommended pressures because of this. Our pulls are very popular and bring extra money to our antique equipment club. Keep up the very interesting videos Pete.

Only in the USA WOULD you see something like this. Great family fun day out.

I always learn new things from your channel. Very interesting!

At the Armada Fair in Michigan, they had a garden tractor class too. Really cool what they do with those tractors. Tractor-truck pulls are always fun to watch.

Our little town fair in Glastonbury CT. USA had oxen pulls! They pulled a stone boat with bars of concrete added each time. They had wt classes from small calves in their training yokes to huge experienced teams. And some kids were competing. I think they also had some tractors but I wasn't interested in them. They were too loud. This was in the 60s and 70s. A neat memory. Thanks. :-)

I find it fun trying to squeeze as much power out of a tractor as possible while remaining stock appearing.

Hi Pete, interesting event but I guess it is not my cup of tea. I like 👍 when you go to the auction better. Take care and have a great 😊 day.

Your videos are ALWAYS interesting ! Thank you !

Thank you for bringing us.

Thanks for taking us to the tractor pull. For many of us in isolation, it is a great way to experience some of the fun that farmers ( and non farmers) have with their pulling equipment. As a kid I worked on a farm in SC that had three John Deere tractors, from medium to super large with a pony motor to start the diesel. Watching them pull brought back so many memories. Thanks again.

Yeeha, Haven't been to one since 80's! Love the Flags!

Pete, that was thoroughly enjoyable! I live in Boston - I have never been to a tractor pull in my 62 years on this earth. Thank you for showing me a slice of life the existence of which was only in the margins of my urban world-view. That was fantastic! Now, I have to find one, if they have them in New England anywhere. Thanks again.

The sleds that were there do benefit pulls all summer and do a really good job.I use to pull on them every weekend

Uncle Pete you are a pro, waw great job I like your farms, like your knowledge on the tractor, please I want to become your friend and learn more farms and more tracks.

I mow hay on a guy’s place who builds pulling tractors from the ground up and CNC mills parts for them. Mostly the high end super stock and pro stock tractor classes. Always fun to see what he’s got in the shop!

And we see crazy farm boys are in every part off this Great Land! Love this Land, Long live the America we all love. Thank you Pete for posting this video of a Fun time for rural America.

We were just at the Alexander Steam Show tractor pull a few weeks ago in Genesee county NY. I love seeing these with my youngest son!

This vid made my day Pete. I'm so glad you made it. I'll definitely share it with my John Deere,( " needs more cylinders") buddies!😁

Great memories of watching the horse & tractor pulls with my grandfather at the local country fair as a kid. 😊

Brings back memories of going to the tractor pulls with my granddad. They also had lawn mower pulls and truck pulls. Saw several tractors and trucks catch fire or break something. Thanks for the great video!

Thanks for sharing memories

We had tractor pulls in Pompey NY during the empire farm days this year they r trying to get more of them this next year it is called Smoking in the Hills

There are a few things that I miss about living in New York. One of those things are tractor pulls. Here in Oklahoma it is ranching country, we have rodeos all over very few tractor pulls.

We missed our local tractor pull here in Oklahoma, we enjoyed yours.

Well Jerry, what ya wanna do Saturday? I dunno, maybe we can get Ronny and Greg, his dad Raliegh and a few others and we can pull some crap around in the field just to see who has the stronger tractor. Yea but old man Perkins has that case Steiger, he could pull all our tractors at once. Yea we could do that too toward the end of the day. Maybe we get the girls to do some potato salad and get little jimmy to do some of that smoked brisket and we just make a day of it before we got to plant...

I was there!! You left before the tandem pools happen and they were pretty good. They also had a big articulating pull class for the kids.

Love the old tractor pulls. We get them out here on the west coast too. Been a couple of times. Always a good time.

Thank you guys for sharing🙂

Wow. This brings back memories. My uncle took us to a tractor pull when I was a kid. Thanks Pete.

That looks pretty cool with just regular tractors no beefed-up ones
