Those are lengths that I got after laying it out in a CAD program. Those lengths were based off a best case scenario, tight bales tight stack, ect. If the bales are loose or the stack is loose there by allowing them to slump a little your tarp would be closer than 24" to grade.
In order to cover from mid bale on the bottom row, up & over to mid bale on the bottom row other side you will need:
4-3-2-1 = 30'
3-2-1 = 22'
This will leave your tarp 24" above grade assuming the bales are good/tight and no slumping.
Thanks for all of the replies. I picked up some Surmount and Grazon P&D, one of the two should get it.. :mrgreen: I'm also gonna try the Surmount on some prickly pear any suggestions?

They have started to bloom but I'm thinking I could run the brush cutter over them and give them a couple weeks to sucker back out and then hit them with the right chemical to hopefully knock the fire out of them.
We use a newer Pearson manual chute and have had absolutely no problems with it. I really don't see the need for a hydraulic chute unless your working a whole bunch of animals. We run around 50 or so through ours at a time and it's really not to bad.
While spending some time with the girls tonight I noticed one that appeared to have a mesquite thorn stuck in her cheek that had become infected. Upon further investigation I couldn't find a thorn or any other signs that would explain the cause of infection. She has a lump about the size of a...
Currently looking to purchase one of the above mentioned rakes to help cut down our raking time. It appears that the John Deere 705 is actually made by Vermeer but painted green. Just wanted to touch base with you all and see if anyone had any first hand experience with these. If so, pro's & con's?
