[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1723424, member: 498"] I was just saying how and why it seems to be done here. Actually not very many round bales used around here and I have heard them referred to as "old school". So there is very little unrolling done. I feed big squares. 3x4x8 bales. They are set on edge on a 4 wheel drive flatbed pickup. Drive to the desired location. The pickup is shifted into first gear low range. Step out and climb up on the bed. As the pickup slowly idles across the field I push individual flakes off the side. Two bales I would guess about 300 feet to get pushed off. Maybe a little more. I see some guys who do that with 4 bales. Two on the deck and two more cross ways on top of the other two. I am not that agile and catty to do that any more. If I need 4 bales I make two trips.
