Bruce has it down. on bigger fields (8+ acres), I make 6 rounds of the outside (counting the backswath), because it takes about that much room when baling or chopping to get lined up with the next windrow, after the outside is picked up. then cutting out from the middle, like Bruce described, will save you a lot of running across empty ground on the headlands. also makes a difference if the field is long and narrow, or more squarish. smaller fields, like a couple acres, just cut from the outside. if there is a tree or swale out in the field that I need to avoid driving into, I circle around it when I get to it, and then turn around and go right back the other way around it again, so there is space to maneuver the tractor and haybine the next time around. I also second the idea of wearing earmuffs. your ears will thank you later.
