None of it is a big issue. Level the drill as explained, if the drive wheel skips, adjust it down a hole.

Which Cooper you run? Is there only one AT3?

What is the reason the cattle don't present the same as deer? A buddy claims he doesn't get EHD because cattle are run on much of their range where he hunts. I can't remember his rationale, maybe something to do with cattle mineral?

Yep, they are great tires, other than I wished they lasted a little longer.

In high deer densities like I have they occasionally bite off the top of the plant. More frustratingly, they bite off the silks.......

I've been running Falken Wildpeak AT3s. How do the Coopers wear? How many miles you getting out of them? I'm pretty happy with the Falken's, but I feel like they should last longer. I also think they get a little loud toward the end of their lifespan.

You didn't even mention the best, Ram! Ram has the best interior and creature comforts of any of them. I like the F150 next....

If I shoot a buck, it's going to be a trophy. I pass 150" deer. I'm to the point that I'm after a booner. The last buck I shot off my farms was 2019, a 166" deer with multiple drop tines that I had passed for 3 years. I'm fine with tag soup, that's the difference in me and most the trophy...

The problem is you never recover -- with a drought every 2-3 years I just can't get back, it seems.

Thank you, I just missed a deal on one. It's not really a need, more of a want. North MO is always 100 degrees and dusty as hell whenever I go to work.

If you aren't on a pretty level sight, don't forget the cost of fill to level the floor. It adds up in a hurry....

I don't know, I know a buddy that has one and it drinks DEF like fuel. He's had his in the shop several times for DEF related issues. At one point he was using a tank of DEF per tank of fuel. He told me that he has several buddies that bought them and they have all experienced similar...

The kill them before they die management method! Or follow the leader method. Between "management," and EHD deer hunting in my neck of the woods is in a downward spiral.

You're not going to buy a 40 anywhere and manage trophy whitetail.

Do any of you use a JD 5055e to run a 3P606NT? Looking at picking one up to have a cab tractor, just wondering how it handles the drill?
