As a newbie, retiring in less than a month and beginning a new homestead with my wife, I appreciate your videos very much. The attention that you give to the small details helps me out eminently. Please keep pumping out the info and let us know how we can support you.
I can not believe this does not have at least 100,000 views! Thank you Russ!
Well, Russ, based on your endorsement, I just bought 6 mini reels. The geared reels get heavy with a lot of walking, they're prone to wind lopsided and jump the spool - and when your raking them in, you can have a mess before you know it. I've worked out different grazing patterns to use the minis, which I believe will also save some time in paddock set up/tear down on our farm. It was very helpful of you to show the fixes in advance. Nothing lasts forever, but the longer the better. :) BTW - I've found a difference in polybraid, I think. The braid from PowerFlex seems to be more supple and wind up better. May not be as big an issue with the mini reels though. I'll find out soon.
I think you'll like the mini reels. I agree the power flex and turbo braid is a lot more supple. Thanks for Watching!!
And here I find answers to all my Mini reel questions - thank you!
We really like the mini reels. For the little guy you can't go wrong. Thanks for watching!
Do you have a video on your automatic reel winder?
@@simplynatural100 czcams.com/video/oC7UKURLo14/video.html Towards the end of this video it shows the reel winder. I'm going to do a DIY reel winder build when I get a chance. If you are not interested in building one I could possibly build an extra for you.
I have lost my comment where I asked what poly ribbon you use on your 3d fences and reels? I'm having tremendous deer issues this year because of the extreme winter we're having and we get 40 to 50 deer eating off of our stock pile bales and pasture daily so I hope to do 3d, but wasn't sure what wide tape/ ribbon you recommended. ( The deer can eat a bale a day.....)
@@simplynatural100 Oh man you can't afford to feed 50 deer. We use 1/2" ribbon from kencove farm fence. If you have a lot to fence maybe a kencove geared reel would work. But mini reels are just as good just won't hold as much tape. You can build your 3d fence out of the poly braid and regular step-in posts. put some peanut butter on the wire that will help them smell it and get shocked. I do know if you saw my 3d fence video we did for our perimeter fence. Here it is has saved us a ton of money. Here's the link czcams.com/video/Rd7_TNi5fVM/video.html Here's another one on 3d fence czcams.com/video/rBQ6gdxctTI/video.html
Thank you Russ, I am still in the planning stage. I will be working with sheep on a smaller property. Your insights on the mini reels are very helpful. As a gal I just do not have the hand strength to work with the bigger reels, and as you say they are more expensive.
I needed this video so much! Thank you! I have a much better understanding. Your videos are great to reference back to as well!
Another great video. So kind of you to take the time to teach the the grazers in this world. Very grateful.
Great information on mini reels. Just what we have been looking for. Now I need to learn how to share with a friend. Thanks
Thanks for watching!! There should be a share button on the page some wheres depending which format your watching it in. The seem to move things around though. Russ
I love to see the calves. They look great and so do their mothers. Some of them almost seem like pets. Great video. Those mini-reels look very versatile and easy and efficient to use.
Kathy
Not efficient if you have to constantly fix them. Why does everything have to have a built-in defect
This video is perfect for me. I've just started using poly braid this and invested in a geared reel, but I should have done more research. My runs are less than 200', and these mini reels will be perfect. Thanks.
LaVern
Glad it was helpful! I love my mini reels!!! Thanks for Watching!!!
Thanks for education on reels.
Thanks for Watching!!
This is great. I just discovered the channel a couple days ago.
Thank you!
Russ I think as we get older the mini reels make more sense. There have been times I have had to use a big geared reel full of wire for a 20-30 foot section. I’m gonna contact kencove and order some. Thanks I always look forward to your next video, John
Right on!! I have two reels with less then 50' on them use them all the time!!
Good pointers on mini reals. That is probably what I will need.
It's about all we use.
I’m only going to have 10 acres. Mini reels seem perfect. Thanks for video and advice
That's the only reel we use. Thanks for watching!
good video good info thanks for all the work the square bale feeder wagon is great idea .
Got to love built in defects.
Awesome content Russ! How much line will the mini reels hold??
I can get 800' of poly braid!! If using the cheap poly twine ill bet you could get up to 1200'. Thanks for watching
Those calves look great!
Yes they do!! Used a awesome bull!!!
New subscriber any info on your winder (how to build or any other info) thanks
I'm going do a tutorial on how to build one this winter. I've had a lot of interest in it. With good reason it makes life so much easier. Thanks for watching!!
Those are some nice calves. What kind of camera are you using to film this?
Thank you!!! They are a great group!! I'm using a gopro max. Quality isn't as good as the gopro hero. I get a lot shots with the max when re frame the videos. Thanks for Watching!!!!
where do you get your minie reals
I get my mini reels from Ken cove Fencing Supply. www.kencove.com Thanks for watching!!
