Well, a good tight bale is a _good_ problem to have. :) Less twine, less spoilage.... If you continue to use round bales, a rear 3pt carrier is _the_ way to go. Saves a lot of waer & tear on the machine. The rear end is always a lot tougher, and in winter if you have snow & ice like I do the weight is where you need it for traction. A good new one is under $300, farm sales you can find for under $100. I like the fork-lift style for my use. I baled some ditch hay for someone last year, he came with a bobcat, guess he wasn't used to my big 5x6 bales, couldn't lift them. So he got another bobcat, same model but it has more lift, that one made it. I said I could make smaller bales, he said no way, keep doing what I'm doing, less transport, less twine, less fuss.
