Griz Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Well it's that time of the year once again... Sparying weeds here on ranch. We bought a new sparyer this year that goes on the back of our 1 ton. Man this this is big. It has a boom span of 55 feet and I can add another 6 feet on each end. It holds 500 gallons which I can do 50 acres at a time traveling at 7mph. It don't sound like much but I can cover alot of ground with this thing in a day. It runs off of 5 satellites and puts all the data base on to a computer that is in the cab with me. I can control the whole unit by a flip of a switch.It's pretty slick. Looks like a big ole air plane on 4 wheels. I'll try and get some pics of it today and post them on here. I have been running from sun-up till dark everyday. Once I get the bugs worked out I have 5000 acres to get done. I'll be glad when I hit the last field... Just like Spot said to Jane...Run, Run, Run...LOL Gotta go... Yall have a good one... Griz...
