I just bought the 23 by 52 Bull Flex tarp. I was able to put it on by myself. I highly recommend the Inland Bull Flex Tarps.
How many were you able to shelter with a tarp that size? Can you share any pics?
The Inland Bull Flex Tarps come in 52 foot lengths. The hay is stacked in a pyramid. The greater the width of the tarp, the higher the pyramid. The widths available are 14 feet, 18, 23, 25, 28, 30, 33, 35, and 42 feet.
The 52 foot tarps will cover a row of twelve 4x5 round bales or ten 5x5 round bales. The 23 x 52 foot tarp will cover a 6 round bale cross-sectional pyramid consisting of a total of 12 sections of 4x5 bales.
The tarp fits nice and snug. It is easy to pull out over the stack. It ties down with loops rather than grommets. I laid a polypropylene rope under each section of bales. After the tarp is stretched over the stack, it is easy to go back and tie off the loops. Here are some pictures:
I put pallets under my bales:
