Macdon makes a 36ft draper that's cheaper than JD we have been keeping our eyes open for one at local dealers. We don't need anything bigger for our operation. We do have a 8 row corn head, 608c I think...I should really look at the numbers more often lol
Correct Farmercaseih.
Very nice. I don't think my dad really cares to have a Draper. We will get an 8 row had once we upgrade our planter to 16 rows.

Yeah we are using it tonight to make sure we know it works and how to use it. The corn is already 19 percent moisture.

That's good. How was the yield? I missed stepped off the trailer, after loading the drill for wheat, and felt like I broke my ankle.

That's not bad though, especially for having a drought.

Next weekend or the one after the custom combine guy is coming for the beans weather depending, ours look good. It was hot but we had timely rains, probably one of the better years we have had. Funny how you can go from the worst year ever to one of the best
