Guy's I have planted 20 acres of new hayfields in the past 3 days. And I have failed to take the camera! Well now I must back up here...the plowing was done last fall, and in 3 days I have disced each square foot at least twice, picked rocks, dragged at least twice, picked rocks again, dragged in the rock picker tracks and seeded and packed it all. Twenty acres done and 5 to go. The 170 is the main attraction, some WD, D19, D15II, XT and Durango help. Needless to say my bad back is bad, but wow it's been an incredible 3 days and I wouldn't trade it for anything. I promise pics at the next outing! Dana

Do you get your sleep when your flying? LOL

As much as you get done on the farm you can't have time to fly.

The universal answer to all questions is yes, how much do you want to spend?

Lookin foward to the pics. Sounds like great fun to me. Had my hayfield sprayed today. Killed 5 year old alfalfa that will be replaced with native warm season grasses. In a couple weeks its 2 times with the disc and harrow, then cultipack, plant and cultipack. The old 45 will do nearly all of it.
