Keep on keeping on! Every problem is truly a learning experience and is part of farm life. Hugs to you and your family for continuing on with Scott’s legacy.
@@caraatnorthtexashay3043 you are and your doing a wonderful job learning along the way. I know you're Mom is so thankful for you and the boys stepping up to help her with everything she needs help with and there's not alot of kids that would do what you are doing. Let Mom know I'm serious about building her the new grapple for the farm. I told her if she buys the materials for the grapple I would fly down to build it for hee for free. I know Scott wanted to get 1 built for this Season and I would love to make it happen for the farm so you don't have any break downs because of it and after I finish the new grapple I will repair the old grapple so you have a back up on the farm.
@@cntslesfabrication I just had a conversation with her about you and she remembers that you had offered to do that for us. We so appreciate your willingness to help us out! We are still trying to decide if/when to invest in another grapple, so we will let you know!
@@caraatnorthtexashay3043 okay perfect. I understand that completely let me know what the family decides when you do. If you can send me pictures of the 1 you have right now I can get you exactly how much the materials will be so you know the number to help with the decision. poteetefabrication@gmail.com. Thanks Cars hope the rest of the week goes good. Ryne
I just want to say thank you to your family. Because of your videos I made my first hay ever, this year. I had a great time doing it and am glad I did. THANK YOU
You have a fantastic Family, we all know Scott’s got a huge smile on his face watching his crew take over and make it happen. Great video once again, God Bless.
Bless you lady you don''t give up and you have lots of folks that will help you in many ways keep up the great work. You will get through the hardships and get it done. Thanks for showing the good and the bad of farming.
You are all doing such a great job such a learning experience for you and your family but on the bright side every day that passes it will become easy for you all hope its all going well now and the weather is good for you god bless you all
We definitely hope it will get easier along the way. Waiting for a stretch of rain to pass before we can move forward with any other fields. Thank you!
Iv been watching your channel for over a year now, I thought you guys made a great team! I was shocked to hear the news about Scott, I personally learned a lot from watching him. We are up in Utah and have a smaller hay business putting up small square bales in fact after I showed my wife a few videos of you in the tractor making hay she decided that she wanted to give it a try on our farm!! Let’s just say I don’t get to bale anymore, she loves it. So I just wanted to say your doing amazing, it is so cool to see family’s pull together to get the job done. Your boys and you are killing it!!! Thanks for continuing to post up videos and taking us along for the ride!!
Excellent video Kim, You're all doing so wonderful, both problem solving and getting the baling done, interesting about the stemmy hay you have, and the number of pads you have per bale, thanks for sharing
You are all doing great! So happy to see everybody getting through the difficulties and moving forward. One of the things that always impressed me was your sense of humor which you haven't lost. God bless and take care. As always looking forward to the next installment!
Great job to your whole family! I admire you for pushing on and doing what Scott started. I always watch your great videos you do a good job giving us great content and you are doing great! Keep it up waiting for the next video
You guy's are doing a great job, I know Scott is looking down and is very proud at what our all are doing. Keep up the good work. Sending prayers 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 that you all get through this.
Happy to see you all getting it done. Nothing easy about it, I watched a lot of videos of Scott fixing equipment. Your subscribers are a great resource, glad they’re helping out. Good luck and thx for the video!!!
Proud of you. Bouncing around as you do is stressful. Literally beats you up. Thanks for sharing the reality of it. Makes me admire you more. You tube is a community. I'm grateful for all those helping you out. Y'all bless me out of my socks, brothers and sisters.
You guys are awesome. Working together to continue on and getting it done. Totally impressed and happy to see. Scott's humor in the past videos always made me chuckle.
The truth is, they're an admirable family. The way to deal with this change of life and with a great disposition, makes them creditors of my respect. I ask Almighty God for all the strength necessary to move forward in his work.
Thanks for sharing what farm life is all about. I grew up on a farm and have owned my own farms for the last twenty years. It's hard work and when people put that food in their mouth very few of them ever think to thank a farmer.
Having some breakdowns at the start of the year is what it is all about by the time you get to cutting and baling the next crop you should have most of the bugs worked out and the machinery ready to go! Keep on pushing forward and keep in mind that Scott is watching from above and is proud as hell that your making it go!
I am so proud of you Kim! You are handling your full plate like a pro. Everything looks so good. Everytime I see that New Holland with the claw on it, I expect to see Scott come crawling down out of it- I really miss him, as I know you do. I'm sending my love & support your way, hun, so proud of ya....
I completely understand what yall are going through. My mom went through this. I tell my wife to watch and pay attention to what I'm doing, because I may not always be here.
Really miss you guys. Hope all has been well with everyone. Miss the videos. Hope you guys are still farming. Im sure Scott is still there in spirit :-)
You are a strong woman just keep believing and building community to help. Love the videos and seeing the journey. Challenges just seem like the normal ones. Quick to solve once you know what to look for and how to fix.
Hi keep up the good work I love your videos I’m sorry for your loss I lost my wife to cancer last year it’s tuff you’re doing really well Regards Ted 🇬🇧👍👍👍👍👍
North Texas Hay, Love the videos, I am at the other end of the country only can give you moral support, It is super great to see a family working together on the farm. Great that you have great farm folks that can help in a pinch. I wish I could jump in the video and help when thing go wrong. That must be that old farm boy in me coming out. Again it doze ones Hart good seeing the family working together on the farm. Take care work safe with that equipment. Richard
Impressed again with how you are doing. I made round bales of hay and silage one year with various problems with equipment needing to buy other equipment. I ran out of money needing to go back to corn and soybeans. I had been across Texas a couple of times in 1976. I saw cactus and barren land but I had not seen hay fields at all. You are making great hay and doing well running and fixing the equipment.
Though the days can be rough and sometimes we get irritated with one another... Or them irritated with me more commonly, we end the day that much stronger as a family
Great job sticking with it! Maintenance is always the hardest part, but it also makes you learn how the machinery operates so don't get frustrated and before you know it you'll all know just what to watch for and be able to be faster at repairs. I learned the same way you are when my grandfather passed in 2014. Keep going and you'll do great!
Sorry to hear about Scott. I lost my dad when I was 14 & my brother was 9. My mother was a school teacher & wasn't really involved with the farm. We rented out the farm & bought a 200 acre grass/crop ground place closer to her family. Needless to say it was a learning experience. With the help of neighbors & friends we made it thru. Hang in there. You'll make it. I have always enjoyed haying & enjoy your channel.
We are having a hard time here in Michigan. A lot of farmers only half of their corn in. We can go no more than 2 or 3 days without it raining. We have been getting only about 30% sunshine. We have 5.5" of rain above our normal rain fall. I wish you guys good luck.
Ya'll be doing yourself one fine job down there in your hay fields. Some days are to make hay, others seem to be make repairs. Each of you are doing a fine job! Hope you have the time each day while together out there to just take a moment, maybe two, perhaps in the stillness of an evening, to celebrate your growing accomplishments! -Bob...
You guys are doing a great job it's all going to be a big learning curve but you will get there and theres nothing wrong with playing it safe with the bales until you get it all figured out. Keep up the great videos
The round bales look really nice and for being a beginner you did a good job especially with the carbonation you use in with the rake ahead of the round baler as one unit I believe that Scott is very proud that you are taking the bull by the horns and getting the job done Do to weather in wet ground I cannot make my head but at least I could enjoy watching you make yours see the look at your face that you're accomplishing something in a few more days this will be so second nature to you you know the machinery inside out Keep up the videos
Keep y'alls head up. Hay equipment has its ups and downs. Y'all are doing great, Scott would be proud, keep on digging it will smooth out . Look forward to seeing y'all progress on
Hi Kim , good to see you are still busy. I am a long time subscriber and LOVE watching your videos. I have ( i think) seen all of your videos. Cant wait to see the next few. Hey i hope you didnt get caught in that winter storm that blew through Texas. That was a doozie. Take care , and all the best from Ontario , Canada.
These videos came up as a suggested last week and i cant put my finger on it but i must have watched about 20 of last years videos since but its a fun watch. Sorry for your loss with your husband he seemed like a fun character. Keep up the good work.
@@NorthTexasHay You guys have got this. You will get it figured out for sure. I don't see anything holding guys back. You have overcame everything they are throwing at you. Awesome job!!
Family working together keep trying don't give up. I know it gets tiring when stuff breaks and you wonder what to do next. Keep your heads held high and keep on trying. Have a great day and be safe
Thanks for the video. When I started watching you tube was to learn about the round baler I had bought when I found you two. There's a pin on the right side of the baler. Open up the tale gate and let the pin out and let the gate down takes the tension off the belts.
I'm so glad your still posting, I hope it's therapeutic for you and your family :) And I'm so happy you have friends to help when you don't know how to fix something :)
We really are enjoying making these videos to share with all of you! We would be lost without all of the friends and TH-cam family that have helped us so far this season!
It’s a learning process that never seems to end. New equipment just brings new problems, but never the less, don’t stop learning. Finish the race no matter how long it takes you. Your sons are doing a great job. There’s no glamour in farming or any skilled trade for that matter. What there is, is respect and a good strong hand shake with confidence. Be safe and strong. God Bless!
Well done, good to see you working out the problem's as they pop up and you lean to fix them , so if happen's again you can fix it quick with out to much down time. Keep up the good work Kim and family Cheers Glynn
farming is so much different from when i was younger i handled 10000 bales a summer by hand. i really like the way things are done today with all the machinery. i probably would have stayed doing it if we had the equipment ya all have today
I have to say SCOTT was a very good teacher, you all appear to be getting the just of this. the old saying , "if it was that easy , everyone would be doing it " great job all !
Love it guys, I’m sure yawl might have fused a few times behind the scenes when things weren’t going rite but that’s ok. It just shows everyone wants to get it done and done rite. Emotions!!!!! Scott is so proud of his family!!!! Keep hard at it guys!!! Just remember farming ain’t for sissy’s or yuppies!!! Love this saying and hopefully yawl can use it to get thru a hard day!! “ TOUGH TIMES DONT LAST BUT TOUGH PEOPLE DO”.
True story... every year on the last row of the last day, I would play "Dancing Queen' by Abba, and Scott would sing it to me saying 'Baling Queen' instead. I'm really going to miss that.
Hey y’all from up north. Glad I’m not the only one with equipment breaking all the time. Course my newest piece is a 1972 1370 case. The rest is 50s and 60s making all small bales. I can’t wait to get an accumulator and grapple. I’ll probably gain twenty pounds. we make it work don’t we. You guys are an awesome family keep up the good work.
Honestly, I personally hear and see enough negative at work being a dispatcher for Emergency Services and 911 call taker. I know many officers and EMS see it also. This is therapy and mind clearing to watch. I admire, and support the strong bond to continue where things where left off with just the knowledge of before. I know Scott knew a lot on the entire process, and its tuff to move along not knowing as much. Scott also gave a bit of advice with my land which is just as difficult as y'alls'. Being sorta new with the hay aspect, I'm happy learning for others mistakes to know what not to do and/or pay attention too. I'm glad to see the entire family pull together and the hard work. Im sure Scott is looking down proud at whats being accomplished, and yalls way of life contuing on without out him there physically any longer.
@@NorthTexasHay Im sure he is looking down proud. Im just as sure Scott is around helping in his own ways too without you noticing. Maybe teasing and testing yall too.
Don't ever feel bad that you have high moisture, just the nature of hay sometimes. We used "salt" to help dry our square bales, it does work. No such thing as over cautious either. As someone mentioned, Scott made that claw look easy but, in reality, it's not. Practice and patience, main thing is patience. We made our square bales weight roughly 100 lbs. and of course, we loaded trucks by hand. Take a chain, with the gate open on the round baler, tie the chain around the tensioner bars for the belts, close or lower the gate, this will allow you to release the tension off the belts. Won't have to separate the belt to flip it back to it's correct side. Great video as always. Keep your chin up, this all apart of farming period. Cheers :)
The lad did good. It is not easy as the view is limited and judgement comes with time. Agree with a previous comment. He will be a master by the end of the hay season. Cheers.
Great job Kim running the baler
Keep on keeping on! Every problem is truly a learning experience and is part of farm life. Hugs to you and your family for continuing on with Scott’s legacy.
Thank you
The whole family is doing a wonderful job taking on so many new things and doing what it will take to get the job done.

Thank you, John!
Bless you lady you don''t give up and you have lots of folks that will help you in many ways keep up the great work. You will get through the hardships and get it done.
Thanks for showing the good and the bad of farming.
We're essentially rookie farmers and so we feel it necessary instead of teaching from a point of mastery like my dad, to teach from our mistakes.
Hard working family!!! God bless y’all!
Thank you!
Proud of y'all. There is great love for y'all.
Thank you!
Great work and your helpers are doing just as well.
Thanks. They are killin' it out there.

Thanks! By the way... West Texas looks a lot like that.
Great job. Glad to see you keep going, and working through your problems.
We refuse to let a few problems dictate the rest of the season. It will only get easier from here. Thanks, Susan.
Hard work + Family + Long days = Respect. Keep up the hard work folks.
Though the days can be rough and sometimes we get irritated with one another... Or them irritated with me more commonly, we end the day that much stronger as a family
Great job sticking with it!

Thanks for the video. When I started watching you tube was to learn about the round baler I had bought when I found you two. There's a pin on the right side of the baler. Open up the tale gate and let the pin out and let the gate down takes the tension off the belts.
Thank you for the tip, Troy! We will try that fix tomorrow.
That's how it goes sometimes...I know my balers take a couple hours to work out the years nap and find there legs!!
Ha ha, yeah if you take it from the shed to the field and it works flawlessly you get a real uneasy feeling eh, lol.
I don't think I've ever seen a baler work right off the bat in my limited exposure!
Your welcome and very blessed with family and friends..you'll make it.
Practice makes perfect. I think your off to a great start. Keep your chin up and Stay safe. God Bless Ya'll
Thanks, John.
I'm so glad your still posting, I hope it's therapeutic for you and your family :) And I'm so happy you have friends to help when you don't know how to fix something :)
We really are enjoying making these videos to share with all of you! We would be lost without all of the friends and TH-cam family that have helped us so far this season!
It’s a learning process that never seems to end. New equipment just brings new problems, but never the less, don’t stop learning. Finish the race no matter how long it takes you. Your sons are doing a great job. There’s no glamour in farming or any skilled trade for that matter. What there is, is respect and a good strong hand shake with confidence. Be safe and strong. God Bless!
So true, Matthew. Thank you.
Well done, good to see you working out the problem's as they pop up and you lean to fix them , so if happen's again you can fix it quick with out to much down time.
Keep up the good work Kim and family
Cheers Glynn
Thank you, Glynn. I'm getting more familiar with the equipment every day.
Great job guys Scott would be real proud
Thank you.
You are doing great hang in there, it’s a learning curve for the rest of them.
Thanks, Randy. We are all up to the challenge.
farming is so much different from when i was younger i handled 10000 bales a summer by hand. i really like the way things are done today with all the machinery. i probably would have stayed doing it if we had the equipment ya all have today
I have to say SCOTT was a very good teacher, you all appear to be getting the just of this. the old saying , "if it was that easy , everyone would be doing it " great job all !
I spent many hours with Scott while he worked handing tools and holding things. I'm so glad I did. And the saying is so true. Thanks, John.
You all are doing a good job, keep it up. Great video.
Thanks, Alan. Means a lot.
Love it guys, I’m sure yawl might have fused a few times behind the scenes when things weren’t going rite but that’s ok. It just shows everyone wants to get it done and done rite. Emotions!!!!! Scott is so proud of his family!!!! Keep hard at it guys!!! Just remember farming ain’t for sissy’s or yuppies!!! Love this saying and hopefully yawl can use it to get thru a hard day!! “ TOUGH TIMES DONT LAST BUT TOUGH PEOPLE DO”.
I love it! Thanks, Aaron.
It wouldn't be farming if things didn't break!
Amen!
Totally agree. Let's get most of them out of the way up front.
Ain't that the truth lol It's always something! Especially when you're in a rush or rain is coming!
the towns new $139,000 newholland 115hp tractor been breaking down and parts falling off and not working the tractor wich sucks
I sure Dad is Proud of hole family !!! Working together .
Thanks, Robert.
You are amazing especially the baling queen! Keep on rocking!
True story... every year on the last row of the last day, I would play "Dancing Queen' by Abba, and Scott would sing it to me saying 'Baling Queen' instead. I'm really going to miss that.
A+++!!! Y'all are rocking it! Keep up the awesome effort!!!
Thank you, Mark.
Hey y’all from up north. Glad I’m not the only one with equipment breaking all the time. Course my newest piece is a 1972 1370 case. The rest is 50s and 60s making all small bales. I can’t wait to get an accumulator and grapple. I’ll probably gain twenty pounds. we make it work don’t we. You guys are an awesome family keep up the good work.
And the less you have to work by hand, the more you want to snack. Lol! Thank you, Joe.
Honestly, I personally hear and see enough negative at work being a dispatcher for Emergency Services and 911 call taker. I know many officers and EMS see it also. This is therapy and mind clearing to watch. I admire, and support the strong bond to continue where things where left off with just the knowledge of before. I know Scott knew a lot on the entire process, and its tuff to move along not knowing as much. Scott also gave a bit of advice with my land which is just as difficult as y'alls'. Being sorta new with the hay aspect, I'm happy learning for others mistakes to know what not to do and/or pay attention too. I'm glad to see the entire family pull together and the hard work. Im sure Scott is looking down proud at whats being accomplished, and yalls way of life contuing on without out him there physically any longer.
Thank you, Brandon. I definitely don't know as much as Scott did, but I picked up more than I realized. We hope we are making him proud.
@@NorthTexasHay Im sure he is looking down proud. Im just as sure Scott is around helping in his own ways too without you noticing. Maybe teasing and testing yall too.
great to see your learning curve, this will get easier
Thanks, Maurice.
Doing great! Y’all keep up the good work!
Don't ever feel bad that you have high moisture, just the nature of hay sometimes. We used "salt" to help dry our square bales, it does work. No such thing as over cautious either.
As someone mentioned, Scott made that claw look easy but, in reality, it's not. Practice and patience, main thing is patience. We made our square bales weight roughly 100 lbs. and of course, we loaded trucks by hand. Take a chain, with the gate open on the round baler, tie the chain around the tensioner bars for the belts, close or lower the gate, this will allow you to release the tension off the belts. Won't have to separate the belt to flip it back to it's correct side.
Great video as always. Keep your chin up, this all apart of farming period. Cheers :)
Thanks for your advice and tips. Noted and much appreciated.
It is good to see how well you are coping.
Great thing bout u tube people helping each other. Sweet operation u all doing fine.
Thanks!
The lad did good. It is not easy as the view is limited and judgement comes with time. Agree with a previous comment. He will be a master by the end of the hay season. Cheers.
He gets better each day! More soon on his new accomplishments.
That's a fine crew you got out there! You're doing great. I lift my milk to y'all every time I drink. Much love from Maryland!
Cheers!
