Subject: Hay rings, same old rings, poly, GoBob pipe??



KY		Let's talk hay rings. I have always used different quality typical round bale rings found at most co-ops. Mine generally fail due to rust, seems the pricier, heavier ones last a year or two longer than the cheapest. I handle them (gently as possible) with front bale spike, and turn them up on end at the outer edge of the pastures every spring until I have to feed again in the winter. Currently using 14 or 15 of them. Have heard mention of the poly rings, noone carries those around here so I've never seen them. My local supplier CAN get them however. Also, they have one GoBob hay monster double round bale feeder, I think it's right in the neighborhood of $900. GoBob claims 7 year warranty, and 30% less hay use. Who has used the poly or GoBob products and compared to $140 "regular" rings, am I going to save money by replacing (over a time as the old ones wear out) with $250 poly or $450 (per bale fed) GoBob feeders?
