I have two bale rings I got at a farm sale. They were Apache brand and about a year old I was told at the time, and I think I got them for $100 each which was a steal. They have heavy wall 1 1/2" OD top and bottom tubes and I have used them for horses for about 6 years. They are as good now as when I bought them, but maybe my use is much less severe than cattle. I do pick a new spot for every bale so the area around the feeder is not as muddy, maybe keeps the bottom tube from rusting as bad. Up until this year I picked them up by sticking the corner of the bucket under the top ring, and about half the time it would slip off and fall back against the side of the loader. On my old tractor that didn't worry me but on the new one I decided I needed a better option to avoid breaking one of the glass cab doors. I put a hook in the center of the bucket and pick them up that way now. Prior to these feeders I had the cheap TSC brand and they fell apart in a couple years.
