STUCK in the POND! Farming....One of THOSE DAYS!

What happens here

Drive the large tractor to the immediate vicinity of the stuck Ventrac, positioning it for a direct pull. Securely attach one end of the tow strap to the hitch of the larger tractor and the other end to a sturdy point on the stuck Ventrac. Ensure the strap is taut but not under excessive tension initially. Slowly and steadily engage the larger tractor to pull the Ventrac out of the muddy embankment. Monitor the strap and both vehicles during the pull to prevent damage or further issues.

Goal: Carefully connect the tow strap between the large tractor and the stuck Ventrac, then use the larger tractor's power to slowly pull the smaller tractor free from the mud.

Tools and materials

  • Massey Ferguson T574 Tractor

What they say

[Music] This is why I have a shirt down there at the merch store that says stupid hurt. I knew better than to get over in there. [Music] Did it anyway. [Music] There's not a lot of room right here for me to do what I need to do. So, I got to get pretty close. [Music] I only brought straps, but looks like the Ventrac has drifted down the hill a little bit already. This is going to be interesting. I need two people to do this. It's just me. Bro, what's going on? Put her in the low. Try, baby. There we go. [Applause] One of them days. Just one of those days. When you don't want to wake up. Come on, bud. Woo! I got it. [Applause] Got it, buddy. I got it. Woo! Well,
