I wish that subsidy check would hurry up and get here the walkway at my beach house is starting to look kind of shity. Is that going to also be a write off?

I haven't been to the beach since I was a senior in high school. I sweat my arse off all summer. I'm not going to the damn beach. I like cold weather so my vacation is all of the time I spend in a deer stand. How do you like the draper compared to the auger?

Yeah, I wish I would have slowed down and taken more from the cab, or taken some while I was waiting for the dew to dry in the mornings. That's the only one I have.

No comparison. It feeds everything so much smoother. You don't have big clumps of beans feeding into the rotor it is just one constant mat of material. We used to run a stripper head in wheat but we now do that with the draper also.
You could really cover some ground with that stripper head though. This was in our best wheat a couple of years ago.

Draper >>>>>>>>Auger
no adjusting auger against the rub bar, no spilt beans (), cut faster.
and damn. that's a nice wheat crop

I really want a draper, and we need one, but I don't sign the checks... Every time I see a clump heading towards the feeder house, I hold my breath.

Can't argue with that. We averaged about 65 last year and were satisfied. It was a pretty nasty year. Mild winter and lots of rain meant that a lot of it had water standing on some of it, and it was all on our terrible land. Learned a couple things and we're pretty optimistic about this year. We caught a ride in a plane and flew over it all, then I spent 3 days on a Polaris Ranger with skinny tires reopening all of the water furrows and making new ones. Good times.

Serious question...
Really nothing much to do with subsidies--then again, it does--but what's the general consensus on the OB when it comes to gestation crates?
