Just came across these pics, thought someone out here might like them.
There's been more then one case around here the last few falls of guys bringing in hoes to rescue a tractor combine or sprayer only to have to go get another hoe to rescue the first hoe.
Ah, that sounds like operator error. I've been close, but only one time have I had a hoe actually stuck and that was my own fault. Tried to climb a ditch at a slight angle, rails were shot and threw one. After pissing around trying to leapfrog out of there succeeded in getting thoroughly screwed and needed another hoe, a rubber tire, AND the county blade to get out. All at 11:00 at night, about 10°, and in about a foot of water. My old man almost dis-owned me.
It definitely played a role in it. Some of our ground though the last few years once you break the crust its just like quick sand. You just keep going down its been so saturated everything had turned to mush. Better this year but 160 miles south it was much of the same old thing. Our Main yard at home when you drove over it with our volvo loader was like watching waves on a lake almost. You could see it moving all around you.
My understanding is those model Deeres don't like the mud
