Used many a 3 tine pitchfork on loose hay and threshed straw and shredded corn fodder to shove it outa the mow, across the barn floor and down the chute(s) to the basement stables. Never did load much loose hay with a 3 tine, was too young (Thank God) for that chore, drove the tractor pulling the wagon and loader instead. (Loaded more than a few loads of square bales though..with a hay hook) Loaded and unloaded a lot of flatrack loads of grain bundles threshing. Used a 5 tine or 6 tine manure fork to clean the stables...both manure forks and pitchforks had long handles. Used a big long 4 tined fork (barley fork) with a D handle to fetch in straw from the strawstack for bedding and a 12 tined ensilage fork with a D handle for ensilage handling to the mangers....used a 6 tine up in the silo to pitch it down the chute. Used a 6 tine to dig potatoes with. Guess that's about all the "forkin around" I ever did. Aw yeah, cleaned some calf, steer, and hog pens and chicken houses with the 5 ahd 6 tine manure forks.
