Wisconsin
Lots of the H&S singles here in Wisconsin and they can do Ok if all is adjusted properly and maintained but more important is the operator running them because if they go too fast or slow all you have is a bunch of piles, lumpy windrows and Muskrat huts and that results in a realy mad chopper driver and wrecked drive shafts and slip clutches.
One place we chop for we have banned the father and son from running the merger and will only come and chop if the wife merged the fields or one of us chopper operators.
Even the H&S twin or the continuous head will bunch if not operated correctly
OxBow seems to be the best since you have to try harder to screw up the windrow but they do have upkeep issues at times
