    Did ya ever sell a place then go back and look at it a few years later and think...

    yea I don't like to look at my other farms I sold. They are not treating them very well. About the way I bought them I guess. Do all that work and watch them revert right back to what they were. terrible. These one people picked up a place from me..... and where all the field tiles met...

    Putting the kubota to work

    you did a really nice job! Looks great. I wouldn't worry about "mud and grime" and "overloading your front axle" You can do run a piece of equipment the right way for most type of work and still do it just fine even if it isn't designed for that task.

    Semi Load Out Chute

    I found some plans online from some university I used to build one out of wood. I'm pretty sure it was 12' long. It worked out really good and was really stiff. They loaded very well with it. I used a nail gun and put about 1,000 nails in it to make sure it was tight. ;)

    Cowboy stuff is fun

    yea I understand the country.. I'm sure they need to have a little crazy in them to survive in that environment. I move my cattle everyday and I just don't like to go out and deal with some dummy. I've about got them all culled out of my herd so its getting a lot better. My cows are not...

    The End of EPDs?

    i've gotten tons of sale books this year and all have used EPDs and most even show ONLY the EPDs with no pictures. If you don't use them you really don't even know what your getting. I still finalize what I want by watching videos of the bulls.

    Passive Income From Your Ranch

    It can be brought back, but with all the time and money involved, its usually easier to sell it and buy something better. you'll be better off.

    Backyard grassers must have come to the sale.

    yes.. everything has doubled or more.. to be with inflation.. we would need 2400 dollar calves to be where we were at before. This.. "these prices are crazy" isn't true.. they are low. When I go to buy a roll of barb wire.. and its 80 bucks.. thats crazy.
