I might have to check out that TSC one. There isn't a convienent one for me (about 75 minutes away), but it might be worth the drive.
I thought about calling Northern but thought it would be a total waste of time. I know I've never encountered anyone at the stores who knew anything about anything, and figured there would be even less chance when it came to tractor implements. The bale spear and boom pole are even labelled as a middle buster and subsoiler in the catalog I have. I guess I try calling them tommorow.
I filled out my profile now /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif.
