Picker vs Snapper


Until I was a grown man, I never saw a picker. When I was a kid all anybody had was snappers. It wasn't until the 2 row pickers started showing up around here until I saw a husking bed, and I was assume that was just because 2 row snappers weren't available. I've been around snappers all my life and I remember my first time seeing a husking bed and wondering what in the world it was.

I just find it odd that up north nobody has ever seen a snapper and nobody down south uses a picker.

Yes seems you are correct---here in Wisconsin when I was a kid it was common to cut corn with a binder and later shred near the barn. The corn shredder even had a husking bed .  When the one row pickers got popular all had husking rolls too.  Never heard of a snapper picker back then!
