He doesn’t need attention — but the 18-row planter turning at the end of the field might get a standing ovation. He’s the guy who runs diagnostics for fun and waxes the hood of his chopper on Sundays. Don’t ask how fast his UTV goes. You’ll find out when he passes you — with a Wisconsin wave.

The Farm Runs on Him (and a Cab So Smart It Gives Weather Alerts)
He reverse-loads trailers smoother than most people back out of group texts. He tracks feed intake like a hawk, knows when the auger’s off by the pitch of the hum, and calibrates his planter with the same care other people reserve for fantasy football drafts.

He’s not a showoff. He’s just efficient. He’s the guy who gets asked to “just take a quick look,” and ends up syncing the controller, tightening three bolts, and updating the maintenance log before you finish your sentence. 

This isn’t country club energy. This is field-ready precision.

His Core Values

BUILT TO WORK:
Spec'd to win

IF IT'S WORTH DOING:
It’s worth GPS-tracking

TRACTOR CAB:
Therapy

PROUDLY WISCONSIN:
Born to milk. Not here to idle.

He's the Real Deal

The Barnyard Baller doesn’t run his mouth. He runs the milk line, the monitors, and the numbers. That steady rumble? That’s the sound of someone getting it done.

He’s not chasing glory — just results, with a side of diesel-fueled dominance.
