Really cool power post buddy....thanks for taking us along with ya!

Little Z is a great helper, but most of all a excellent student. Thanks for watching.

Glad you showedme the second reel and the demo. Yes we have the same hard soil. Great demo on the unroll

The unroller did a great job. Watch out for that spike protruding from the bale. Thanks for the video!

Good to see, that hay rolled out great. I like those power poles and set up. Little Z come to check on Z Man. Good Video, keep up the good work.

Thanks for high lighti g the powerflex power post and reel

Man this is awesome. I’m on hilly pastures here in eastern ky, but I’m gonna give it a try. Thanks for posting

Imagine its trial and error on the bale. Thanksfor for San Angelo bar. Appreciate your highl9

🎉

Thank you….

An easy way to tell which direction the hay is rolled is to approach the bale from the side where the spikes go in (before they go in) and run your hand along the side of the bale like you are petting a cat. When you go in the direction it was rolled it will be smooth but petting it in the opposite direction will be like petting a cat from tail to head and you will feel the ends of the hay. You want the ends of the hay facing the fourwheeler if you want to unroll it quicker. Once you do it a lot you can just look at the bale and be able to tell.

Nice work Z man! I started doing something very similar to what you’re doing with the San Angelo bar and towing straps, however I think you’ve inspired me to spread the towing straps further apart where they connect with my UTV. May I ask what length of towing strap you’re using and did you also buy it at TSC?

What about using two bars........ one in each end of the bale with a washer welded to one end so the rope wont come off ? And.... love smaller round bales .....I suppose they are 4x4 bales ? I have a 4x4 baler too......Id never go back to the large bales ! Dont need large equipment to move them. With a larger round bale ( wider ) couldnt you just add a wider bar on your 4 wheeler......and use that ? I also love the smaller bales to feed cattle in round bale feeders. Cows dont make near the mud hole around the feeders. I move them every time I give them a new bale .

At the price of hay this year you would be better off spreading Lyme it's the only thing that is a quick cure for broom
