Subject: attn lentil growers....635 or draper


Did a search, found a few threads but need some more info. Having a tuff time deciding tween a flexdraper or 635. It'll be a couple weeks till I start seeding but these days you need to find equipment early!
My issues are short red lentils, down peas, rolling ground, rocks and I need bigger than 30ft.
Right now I use a 930f that works ok. I also use a macdon draper for the cereals so I understand the draper vrs auger thing

Will the flexdraper cut low enough. I am guessing it may follow the ground well with the short sections. The 930f will miss once in a while on some side hills. 635 worse?The combine does not have contour front.

What about rock protection, the 930f is just barely adequate. Poor combine! Need better than that. Yes we use a landroller and it's the smaller rocks that cause a problem. Seems like they work themselves to the top over the summer.

Did I leave anything out?

So...what head? Any for sale? I'm east of saskatoon
