Nice pics.
Where around Dalhart are you guys?I have an uncle that farms out off of TX102(?)Your wheat looks good.
Wheat harvest up here starts around the middle of June and last sometimes to the first week of July,later up in the NW TX panhandle.

Great pics, thats a great looking R72 you have there. Do you ever have problems with auger reach while unloading on the go with your 30ft head?

 

[silver72man]

Sorry guys been out of touch for a couple days. Um our wheat comes off about the 20th of June to the later part of the month.

It would be nice to have a bigger headers it could handle it!!! I've been trying to talk my grandad into goin with a 36' draper for wheat and milo and a twelve row for corn, that would be a site to see.

No we don't have any problems our unloading auger does the job pretty well with a thirty foot header, it reaches out alot better than our N7 that's for sure.

We live north east of Dalhart at Conlen, TX. It's little bitty and in between Dalhart and Stratford. The little community of Conlen is made up of my family and my grandads side of the family who also farm and ranch.

Thanks for the compliments, sure is nice to have Gleaner guys together to help each other out on this site.

We had an 8 row on our R-62 and that was too much combine for that head. A 12 row would be perfect.

 

[silver72man]

Yep I agree with you on that one. What year model was that 62 of yours?

 

[greeniron]

Great pictures! Someday hopefully I can get that way and see you guys.

I know where that's at.When I hauled corn for Frische Bros. we hauled to the Cargill(?) elevator south of there,down by Coronado Feeders.

 

[silver72man]

Ok yea you were in our part of the country only about 10 miles from us there at Conlen. Where exactly do you farm?

 

[bighp6030]

I farm in Bushland,TX about 15miles west of Amarillo.I worked for Frische Bros. back in 1999.I drive truck full time and make a few trips a year up in them neck if the woods.

 

[silver72man]

Well I'm down in Canyon in the fall if you ever need any help. I know several people from Bushland, it's a neat little town. Let me know if you ever need any help I'll be there.

You must know the Schniederjans.Paul farmed here and raised his kids here before he moved up north.I went to school with Gary's oldest kids.

 

[silver72man]

Yes sir I know them very well. I grew up in the same church as them they are very good Christian people.

Nice combine you have there. It looks like rain clouds on that first photo. I'm another Texan, but no longer farming & live in Wimberley.

'98. I always wanted to run it side by side with my buddies 9650 STS when they came out. I think I could've put him to shame. I know it would outdo my current 9650
