    If you see the old grey ghost or big red on the road give us a holler. My dad grew up on a farm with converted horse drawn equipment. Their "big tractor" was a 8n on a 250 acre dairy

    There’s different methods but I don’t use bottom air at all for sand. Top air only, one hopper at a time. Now some guys will crack a second hopper open and shut the top air off, and just regulate the pressure with the air coming up through from the product valve. I’ve tried that but it doesn’t make it any faster and just complicates things. I regulate my pressure with the top air valve and occasionally by cutting back on the product valve.

    With a good trailer and a good blower, you can unload 50,000 pounds in around 20-25 minutes if you’re short-hosing it.

    As far as boxes taking over, I’m hoping that never happens. The silos are the right answer, in my opinion. They are also working on a coating for the sand that is supposed keep dust to a minimum, so we’ll see how that works out.

    I’ve whacked quite a few deer unfortunately, one of which on a bike, so suffice to say I have little reason to love the likes of Bambi.

    Frankly, they’re a menace anymore.

    Hard to explain; very tender with perhaps a bit of a buttery taste maybe?
