If you want to see someone yell you run hay equipment fast around our place, there is only one reason to go fast then, and that is because it looks like rain. If I would mow fast it would miss spots, if I would rake fast it would leave hay, and if I would bale fast it would either leave hay or plug the baler up. So running hay equipment fast is out of the question. I have had days when it looked like rain and my dad went like crazy trying to get that hay baled before it rained, and the next day I was out there trying to clean out a plugged baler. As for your rough fields, thats the reason I plow fast, if I plow slow I will have all these bumps, but with plowing at a little faster speed, when it turns the ground over it will break it up some, and it makes tilling it easier and faster. And I would think out of all of my neighbors they either plow as fast as me or faster. The guy across the hill has a John Deere 4020 and pulls 3 bottoms, now that tractor should pull a lot bigger plow. After reading all of these message the conclution I have come to is that most of these people would like to take there tractor out and put it in first gear and plow there little garden and let it take them all day. But I don't have the time to be doing that, when the weather is nice you have to run with it and get work done. There is a lot of work that needs to be done before hay season starts, so time is a factor here. I am just in shock that none of you have ever broken anything, and that you would like to take 3 times as long to do the same job. The only difference is when I go out to till it I have all ready started to break some of it up.
