I will admit, you need lots of practice, or the right tractor (some have preferences). Neighboring farmer I helped with hay, his son preferred the ole JD 620 narrow front, and could stuff all their loaded wagons into the barns, I used to stage them, if he was baling, when done, I would help by signaling, blind spots etc., he was good at it, been doing it so long etc. His dad would laugh when I tried it with the JD 3150, sometimes I win, sometimes the wagon wins, its just that front turning axle, that makes usual trailer backing maneuvering look easy, as you have to think opposite from what you normally do.
I think the easiest way is a front hitch, or having a fork with a hole in it for a pin on your tractor, skidsteer or what have you. At our place, the hay is bought from the field, wagons dropped at our barns, I used the fork on the loader, but did not want to drill a hole in one, devalue it etc., most times I can keep enough pressure on the tongue without a pin and get it out of the barn to roll by hand. I had a photo of the JD 620 and several full wagons, darned phone got washed and so did the photos, took it a apart immediately, dried it down, placed in rice, no go.
