Way to go keeping your distance. I don't care what kind of rope or chain you're using you stay out of the way, especially with that amount of force. Anything breaks and it's like bullets. A lesson my dad never let me forget on the farm. Especially if you don't know the guy pulling you out. Getting our 8550 stick back in the day required a dozer usually, just weren't big 4x4 tractors around at that time.
Getting another 1050 this summer, actually bad timing considering covid19, but me and my brother are determined to keep investing in our farm and our great people that works for us.
What beautiful and imposing machines you have there! Everything looks so brand new! I hope that mother nature helps you, because machinery doesn't need anything better. Greetings from brazil!
The Welkers in Montana have three Big Bud articulateds. Two pull their seed drills and one stands-by as a dedicated rescue tractor. They have alkaline patches and can sink in to the axles or deeper. Their heavy floater spray-truck also serves as a rescue puller...and it goes 50-mph.
Terrific video of various stuck big machines and removal. I have never seen a strap like you use. I have a big nylon rope. I like yours better. two thumbs up on your video Mike! Thank you sir
5:10 In aerospace we have "connector savers" , an inexpensive adaptor that's used on connectors that are frequently (dis) connected. The replaceable adaptor then takes all the abuse instead of having to repair or replace the permanent connector.
Got stuck so bad one time that the neighbors d8 wouldn't pull us out when hooked with our other tractor too, it was like a vacuum, waited three days and drove the tractor out of the wet spot, we farm along the border in Saskatchewan.
Hello Mike, I love your videos. I learn much more about real farming than most of the others. If you have a bolt problem I need something much better than great eights go to ARP bolts in Oxnard CA. I will guarantee they can solve your problem of broken hardware.
Wer Fendt fährt führt1 :-D the german Meisterwerk! The 1050 Vario is one of my favorite Maschines, i really would like to work with! Good Job Guy´s!!!! Wheehl´s are nor so bad, you also get stuck with tracks on very wet conditions....
got a pair of fiberglass sticks with a magnet on the end I got from a trailer hitch sales outlet, easy way to locate your hitch on a JD, unless of course you can get that technician you have to buy with a JD to help you hook up
Hey Mike, I found you through Brian Browns channel and I'm lovin' your content, you've got some big ass machinery and I'm enjoying it, take care buddy.
I'm sure you fixed it already, but couldn't you use spray paint to mark a stripe directly above the hitch to locate it? Also, does the field sit in a valley or depression that collects water? It seems like a lot of mud and field lakes.
I cant lie, I like to see some stuck action! Lollol but man! This is my first time seeing such a huge strap! It gets the job done! Nice machines too!!🤑
Just need to get a Case out in the field to help with the stuck tractors... can't imagine seeing those straps breaking but really could cause some damage.
@@mikemitchell2554 Biggest thing I've seen stuck was a fully loaded construction garbage bin truck of bricks and we pulled it out with my friends 3500 dodge mega cab :D In the fall too so roads were slick but we got it outa the mud.
How are those straps holding up for you guys? They look like the same ones we use and the ring in the end ends up cutting the eyelet because its too small. Those dont stretch much. We rip 4 or 5 a season and they arent cheap. I run into a guy around kindersley sk who makes 3 ply 10 inch wide rated for 300,000lbs made out of nylon which stretches 20% compared to 2 or 3% stretch on those red which are polyester. He triple layers the eyelet and warranties rips IF you use a 2 inch clevis on the eye. We put in a 6 strap order for 2021 seeding run. I would cut the ring out of your current straps if thats where they are failing for you guys and use at least 2 inch clevis which typically has a 35 ton rating which is easy to max out by jerking. Shes a dangerous game coming to the end of that strap with a 30 ton tractor or tractors in some cases lol. Cheers
Mike, I have a question? if all the fields are plowed and the soil itself becomes soft, there will be no dams in the middle of the levels, it will just absorb the water and the fields will even come out now this water is not absorbed by the soil because you use only 10cm maximum depth and only tamp it? and the soil cannot absorb the water. did you try it with plowing?
@@mikemitchell2554 i see now but if you do it with Ripuntatore the soil the winds not gonna efect at all but this is just my opinion by the way awesome content keep it up and good luck
We rip the soils in Australia Similar conditions Could cause a lot more issues with bogs in the wetter conditions We don't have to deal with snow melt here
Looks like you guys have your hands full pulling each other out. I guess with the wet weather you couldn't just wait until things dried out some. I know we had a really wet spring and had a hard time getting hay put up.
The 9620RX JD is such a awsome tractor iv ran case quads and they suck compared to the 9620RX I also like my JD twin tacks just takes a operator like my self that understands how they pull.
So what kind of soil is it over there? Looks like it's just greasy on top! It would be far worse if it was soup under the topsoil like the granite country can be here on Australia
Must be leaving ruts and bad compaction with those big tow behind tanks. We use to run tow behind 6550 until it got wet, then we got a tow between 6550 and a quad track. No more Ruts, stuck less often. No more uneven standing crop from compaction
You got to watch what your doing when you pull someone out there for sure we had a young guy get killed in our neck of the woods years ago a chain broke came flying back and hit him you all be safe
My brother stuck our biggest tractor which at that time was an 930 case couldn't find clutch pedal he was in so deep and I had told him and told him to stay away from that spot what did he do you got it right through the middle well with ever tractor we had the neighbors had it came out I thought for sure we would pull her into that day and a day later we were farming again
It seems kinda strange that the front hitch on those Fendt's is so massive yet the only adjective that the "tow hook" brings to mind is "cute" lol:) Do you guys typically have issues with soft spots and getting stuck every year, I was kinda thinking as flat as the land is there must be soft spots a plenty to have so many low spots or field lakes or whatever you guys would call them
There definitely is some flat ground/land in Saskatchewan but its not nearly as flat as some people think it is or make it out to be. Correct me if I'm wrong Mike but you farm in some pretty big hill. Big enough to make the tractors snort/feel it! And their farm isn't that Far from some good sized valleys.
Mike, I’m sure you guys have tried everything, I was thinking that maybe if you ran a flat roller over the straw when it’s wet ,it might help dry out the wet spots enough to get them planted, but not
I mean roll it in the winter early spring when the ground is wet, it will mash the straw in the mud. It will let those areas get more sun and dry up better by the time you’re ready to plant. I don’t think the packing would be a problem, and it help with the rocks too
It will mash the stubble on top of the mud, insulating it from the sun and making it take longer to dry out. Then you'd have to plow it again anyway. Using a disc to break it up would work better, but with 40k acres that's a lot of extra work, time and fuel.
Well Mike Glad your still laughing! At those moments a positive attitude can get you through allot and keep people motivated!

Just started watching a couple days ago. And I’m loving the content and your energy.
I’ve been going back through your videos. There all cool.
Looks like it will be a good year for whoever wins the stuck pot
Drone flyover for water?

That 1050 fendt looks sweet!! Love that tractor !!!

That field is enormous 😲
Always nice to see your videos ! Made the home office in quaratine time much more comfortable :D
Thank you Mike
Regards from Germany
You NEVER, want to make fun of anybody that gets stuck! Cool video! Thanks
You're so lucky to have finished harvest
Great vid Mike, looks like you need to get the Triples out and on them Fendt’s Cheers JR.
Hey mike catching up before season under way properly! Great video
Best option on these new tractors is that tow cable, love it !!
Mike the 4640 can is prewired for 4 cameras throw a camera by the isobus plug and you can see your hitch perfect.
That's a good idea! But don't they come standard with that little option? Why must I pay for it? Come on John Deere! 😂 🤷♂️
Mike theres a yearly $1500 dollar activation to make them turn on. No i kidding there isn't one YET!!!!
Ha! 😂 It wouldn't surprise me!
Terrific video of various stuck big machines and removal. I have never seen a strap like you use. I have a big nylon rope. I like yours better. two thumbs up on your video Mike! Thank you sir

I always asked me why the Quadtracs have a Rope mounted below them. Thank you for explaining!
Your good with that big deere!! and get yourself a drone! fly it around while ur driving back n forth!💯😂😎🤘🚜
Great video Mike
some nice big drills ,cover a lot of ground nice to see,
Excellent video!!!!!!!!

@@matthewdowd4686 costs enough everytime you call him, maybe cheaper to keep him in the toolbox, keep gettin outta the mud bud.
Wow what awesome gear
Very interesting Video. Nice big Tractors. You making great Videos. I World love to run with one of these here in Germany.
Thanks
Terra com excesso de umidade, praticamente impossível de plantar , mas belas máquinas, parabéns!!!👏👏👏👏

Thanks man! Yeah Brian is cool
@@mikemitchell2554 peoples asking about you on his Livestream yesterday
Daniel Kacko they both are guys who are keeping it real as I see it... good content without the scripted drama.....
Your video reminds me of 2012 and 2013. Gross mud!!! Have fun buddy
I love seeing every day how many subs you have gained, congratulations on basically 30k!!
the ropes don`t come up flying unless you got a chain on them . but a strait rope allways hit the floor when it rips
Nope. They hold a lot of inertia as well.
Nice video Mike!
Amazing video awesome gear 🚜🚜💪🏼💪🏼
One of your better videos

Muy buen video. Para que el mundo vea lo duro que es la agricultura.
👍👍👍👍👍
You are lucky to have found that woman Mike 💯
I know! 🙂
Me and one other person were discing on hilly land in New Zealand and we got stuck 15 times in a day
This looks like a lot of fun
When ur stuck ur stuck holy black gumbo . This is crazy . Sometimes it’s just better wait a bit or have beer and chill lol . Crazy .
Brilliant video! 😎
I cant lie, I like to see some stuck action! Lollol but man! This is my first time seeing such a huge strap! It gets the job done! Nice machines too!!🤑
such a nice ffing big machines. crazy
So lange man noch seine gute Laune behält, ist doch alles gut😅😜nice video 👍
When the going gets tough the tough get going thanks Mike for showing some of the trickier parts of seeding🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈😃😃😃😃🏴🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾
DAMN you guys have a lot of cool shit! That Fendt is freakin BA!
Just need to get a Case out in the field to help with the stuck tractors... can't imagine seeing those straps breaking but really could cause some damage.
Oh they can

Fendt the king of the patinage
Mike, I have a question? if all the fields are plowed and the soil itself becomes soft, there will be no dams in the middle of the levels, it will just absorb the water and the fields will even come out
now this water is not absorbed by the soil because you use only 10cm maximum depth and only tamp it? and the soil cannot absorb the water.
did you try it with plowing?
We can't plow, it would ruin our soil, it's been tried.. We only have 4in of top soil. And we get winds here that will make the whole county blow away
@@mikemitchell2554 i see now but if you do it with Ripuntatore the soil the winds not gonna efect at all but this is just my opinion by the way awesome content keep it up and good luck
We rip the soils in Australia
Similar conditions
Could cause a lot more issues with bogs in the wetter conditions
We don't have to deal with snow melt here
thanks
That’s gonna be fun combining that lot
Looks like you guys have your hands full pulling each other out. I guess with the wet weather you couldn't just wait until things dried out some. I know we had a really wet spring and had a hard time getting hay put up.
I thought 8rx was a big tractor but that 2 track might be bigger. They're some pretty machines though!
2 track is far bigger
Damn looks awesome, insane machinery just beasts, subscribed💪💪💪
I like how u keep ur shoes outside the cab 😂😂
Pretty sunset
The 9620RX JD is such a awsome tractor iv ran case quads and they suck compared to the 9620RX I also like my JD twin tacks just takes a operator like my self that understands how they pull.
Stucks are always fun. Except when you’re getting stucken!!! 🚜🚜🚜
So how do you handle all the ruts and lakes that remain in the field. Do you try to replant over them sometime later?
I personally love the twin tracks myself!
What do you do with the stuck areas and the areas with sitting water?? Do you have to wait until they dry and then seed them??
Yes
Its just a normal day in the office right ? Oh boy, on days like this you learn too laugh again
what you think about deutz fahr
I have a question, his shoes does not fell down? Because he leaves his shoes outside the cabin.
Very nice video !!! 👍👍👍👋👋👋🇩🇪🤝🤝🤝
So what kind of soil is it over there? Looks like it's just greasy on top! It would be far worse if it was soup under the topsoil like the granite country can be here on Australia
Where did you buy the tow straps? Looks real strong and figured we need them in Sweden. ( sorry for bad spelling)
I guess that answers my question. Just another day in the life.. I know how that goes..
Where did you get that tow strap any idea of the weight rating looking for a new one broke our 4 inch rope last fall
250,000lbs
Getting it done
Must be leaving ruts and bad compaction with those big tow behind tanks. We use to run tow behind 6550 until it got wet, then we got a tow between 6550 and a quad track. No more Ruts, stuck less often. No more uneven standing crop from compaction
beautiful machines I could work there
Do you come back later and seed the wet spots?
Yes. But some will be still too wet too seed
You got to watch what your doing when you pull someone out there for sure we had a young guy get killed in our neck of the woods years ago a chain broke came flying back and hit him you all be safe
My brother stuck our biggest tractor which at that time was an 930 case couldn't find clutch pedal he was in so deep and I had told him and told him to stay away from that spot what did he do you got it right through the middle well with ever tractor we had the neighbors had it came out I thought for sure we would pull her into that day and a day later we were farming again

Omg ! Hard job ...
As a new viewer to your channel is the amount of lakes and wet spots normal for your area or is it still the fallout from last years terrible autumn?
Yeah it's just from the snow
@@mikemitchell2554 its frightening the amount of land you lose to the floods
What sort of weight are those planters Mike?
Just found your channel (loving it) , how many acres in total do you farm?
Thanks! Around 40k
since you have problems with the 4440 case sprayers, have you thought about getting hagie's
Thought about it, but I don't think I would no
Mike mitchell stuck show. 👍👍👍
very excited
Hi Mike Great video!! I would listen for the frogs croaking ...if you can hear them your to close to the wet spot!!
They are awesome! 🙂
Do you have any videos of a tow strap snapping ? Where are you guys located in relation to Swift Current. (Speedy Creek) 👍🤗🇨🇦
I don't no

Could you hook cables up from the drawbar to the front like your tractor
What track tractor would suit your operation if you replace the 9rx's?
The Case 620s

Mike, I’m sure you guys have tried everything, I was thinking that maybe if you ran a flat roller over the straw when it’s wet ,it might help dry out the wet spots enough to get them planted, but not

at 21:08 you say "let's pop it out then we can continue seeding"
Do you not plough 1st and then seed?
When do you plough then?
P:)
We don't plow..
Different crops, different soils, different climates, and different pest control methods, all have requirements for dealing with the planting methods.
