@WIWinterman They usually have an old cars differential and some engine to power it. When right axle slows down with a brake on it left starts pulling and the hook rope is lifting the bale up. Pulling speed and strength is variable of the brake slipping, when the brake is fully released the rope drum runs freely so the hook can be returned and same thing again brake the other axle and rope drum will pull the bale up. Sorry if the explanation is confusing
I ran a boom for many years in the Chino Valley, and loaded some in Imperial and Blythe. The guys in the video are in no hurry, but we used to put on 400 bales weighing 140 pounds each in about 50 minutes.
Boom guy I think is Bill Fernandez? I used him several years ago in imp valley. He was the last guy with a boom. He had a 75 watt light bulb at the top swayin away. Bulbs are gone too!

I used to boom on Everytime I went to Blythe and Parker haven't been back in years but back then squeezes weren't allowed or that's what I was told anyway.
@HELLRAISERWFFW Someone commented that they werent loading for money they wanted to do it old way, for fun and for maintenance of machines. I believe that they have plenty of machines, but are wealthy enough that some times they can take little more time to do a job
@chulio360 ustedes que van a saber de cargar pacas de todos modos dejan la carga chueca y cargan con la pluma estos vatos si son alfalferos de a de veras
i usta work for a farmer that tended 1300 acres of hay then 500 acres of wheat straw square baled we usta load a 18 wheeler truck if im not mistakin 440 bales we loaded 2 a day and sent them off the farm all by hand even though he had elevators and belts its just faster by hand
@Benson1280 What you mean? How there is posibility to get more hay on? I don´t see any free space on truck bed and I bet there is no opening in the pile.

I made a comment to someone who said that there is way to get more hay on. So I believe that you can tell me how there is posibility to put more on. Read the comment that I commented for, before you say that I don´t know what I´m talking about.

Brought back memories of times past when my husband used to boom the hay onto the truck....years ago

Hey, great...thanks. Dad spend 40 years hauling hay first from Bakersfield, and then Imperial Valley. That's real work.

Darin Ferreira you know joe gomez ??

Bulbs are gone too!
Now that is a hell of a lot easier than throwing bales by hand.

Nice! How does that cable/hook thing work? Is it on a spring, tensioned? Do you have a winch on it for lift control?
