I’m in Australia, an ex farmer and I follow a few farming channels. I rate yours as one of the best. You’re straight up, honest , show the good and the bad and explain things very well, you’ve got a sense of humour as well. I know how hard it is to video and frankly I don’t know how you do with such detail, the time involved is huge. Keep up the good work and good luck for the season.

Several other farmers that I watch on youtube are like you,their videos sometimes are from several days. Most of us understand about making videos and farming. Now that I'm 76 and retired from farmingI watch a lot off farming videos and enjoy all of them.Thank you for the videos and all your hard work .

Matt just keep doing what you are doing, first and foremost you are a farmer. Living in Michigan and Indiana you only get to see certain types of farming operations. I stubbled on your videos a couple of years ago just because I was interested in seeing a cotton farm operation. Thank you for taking us along on your day to day work, I thoroughly enjoy your videos getting to hear the commentary on what is going on. We still get to ride along with you through your seasons throughout the year so I'm not sure what timing of videos being posted has anything to do with it. We continue to live in a world of Karens and Kens. Looking forward to your upcoming harvest season and hopefully you see good results from all of your hard work getting the crops in the ground. God Bless.

Like every farmer in the Country, you can only do what you can do. I think most people think there's more money in KZfaq than there is. Used to be more but not anymore. Not saying it's not a second income that helps, it probably is. But you can't delay your primary income, trying to satisfy a few people you'll never satisfy anyway.

I appreciate everything you do as a farmer and farming is your number one priority, not making KZfaq videos. If people what to help you to catch up on your KZfaq postings I’m sure they will happily volunteer to walk your fields every day pulling up pigweed by hand so you don’t have to spend time every day with this activity. They will gladly volunteer to sweep out your grain bins for you to give you more time to spend on videos. And let’s not forget the constant greasing, fueling, cleaning air filters, checking oil levels, etc that happens every day before you can start working with any machinery. I don’t see how the three of you do all this work and record videos. Not to mention the hours it takes to watch all the stuff you have recorded and make the appropriate edits. Taking time to post videos quicker will not put any more bushels of corn in your bins, spending that time improving your farming operation will.

Matt I’ve got a buddy in south Texas that he was one of the first to own a 7760 picker. He told me two problems to look for. One is the engine fan drive. They are notorious for going out and burning up an engine. The other is the engine in general. At the time it was Deere’s biggest engine. But they had problems with the early ones. Check your blow by. I know this, I love our CS690’s. They will eat 3 bale cotton and when we get in our drip irrigated that’s pushin 4 bale it still walks and talks. Even with ours having a burr extractor, I’d rather run this then a picker. Those spindles and all the moving parts and pieces look like a nightmare to me! Hope she walks and talks for you this fall!

Mine is an early model 7760 that doesn’t have the variable speed fan drive so I should be ok in that regards. The problematic fan drive started with the ‘12 models I believe

About your content dates. I am not tracking you down or trying to copy your farming habits. So what does it matter about your timing? It matters none. Someone will always complain. Even if you hand them with a new rope. It will be to scratchy for them. I have farmed in the past. Farming is not a job. None the less. It takes long hours today and maybe none tomorrow to do. Yet the day you did not work that much. You make up for when it dries up. You are doing great Matt. If they want them more often. Let them pony up the money to pay for an editor.
