[QUOTE="Campground Cattle, post: 22265, member: 195"] Something we use in East Texas works pretty well and I like it a whole lot better than rings. We use log skider or large tractor tires, first there free, they will hold a 4x4 or 4x5 round bale. My neighbor and I get the tires from the local tire dealer free ,saves him from paying disposal fee. After hay season they stack, dont rust from the enviroment they have to sit in.The cows will come up and step on the tire, they get right off I guess they don't like the way it feels . After two or three seasons the side walls start to break down, then we use them for filling in wash outs, gulleys and sloughs and backfillig with top soil. The tires hole the dirt extremely well and help us control erosion. [/QUOTE]
