The pull up team

08/10/2026

Loose haying with horses demonstration, Grant Kohrs Ranch, Deer Lodge, MT: Allen and this old team have pulled up many loads over the years. The horses were pulled out of semi retirement for one last demonstration how the pull up works with horses.
The pull up team does hard work. The basket is heavy and some big teams can bring some pretty large loads to the basket. They are also always in the collar: when they pull the basket up, when they have to hold the basket for the scatter raker to clean up, AND when they are backing the basket back down. The breeching does not come into action on this job, as the horses are backing the load while still holding the hold. The basket needs to come down slowly.

The driver on the pull up, whether he uses a tractor or a team of horses, has the control over where the load goes. Slow, and it gets deposited in the front of the stack, fast with a sudden stop, and it goes to the back. He can make the helpers’ work in the hay stack easier, or harder!

On the last day of the loose haying demonstration we had a team of horses on the pull up, instead of the tractor. This team is getting up there in age - time to work in younger team!
