The double baling thang has been done before. You gotta come up with something far more original if you want your own Mahindra commercial. :D

I've picked up bigger bales than that with my 4110. I got some whoppers last February and they had to be lifted two at a time, or with weight on the back. The first bale we started to pick up I had my wife pull up the the bale and curl the bucket forwar, looped the chain around the bale and had her curl the bucket back and lift the bale up off the ground. When she started to back up with the bale the loaded rear tires on the 4110 just spun, they weren't making contact with the ground. They were very heavy for 5X5 bales.

Kieth don't let the size fool ya.Those are green hay. We wrap them. The one on the back is about 2200 pounds. the one on the front is about 1500 pounds. I was going to try two on the front but didn't have the time this past weekend. If we are baling this weekend I plan on trying two on the front. Nice thing about using a spear on the back and front is the rear acks as counterweight, plus it cuts down on the trips across the field. We load all the bales on a trailer in the field, transport them to the farm and the wrap them. It cuts down on handling the wrapped bales, which ltranslates into less holes in the wrap, long term that means less spoiled hay.

Those bales are deceptively heavy, they sure don't look that heavy.
