You also want a film that you can stretch without it breaking in the middle of wrapping a bale. That is a pain
Jim, I have a 3pt wrapper like yours. I highly recommend paying a little extra for 1.1mil wrap instead of the standard 1mil. Sunfilm has one called "GOLD" that's still 1mil but acts like the 1.1mil, but costs more. PolyXL was the first 1.1mil wrap that I found. Anyway, you're getting less feet per roll, but if you're tensioning by hand it's definitely the way to go. It's really frustrating when you snap the film when you're 90% done with a bale. With thicker film you have a whole LOT more wiggle room.
Correction: It's 1.2mil that I was using not 1.1mil. Here's the product: http://www.polyexcel.com/index.php/products/silage-wrap
