Weighing is obviously the fairest but another long shot is knowing how big the field is and seeing how many bales came off it. Average yield is probably 10-12 4x4's in most crops this year

Thankfully I'm only buying a few for bedding calving pens this year instead of feeding. Hoping to collect some in the the morning with the jeep and trailer and squares would be easier for me to haul than rounds.
