You probably have irregularly shaped fields up there in NE like I have in Western SC and you just have to adjust to the shape of the field. However, when raking in a more or less rectangular field, I like to rake along one long side and then turn around and rake back along side the first windrow. Continue until you have the field raked in parallel windrows, then go around the field twice to rake up the hay missed at the ends. Then, when baling, go around the field and get the two outside windrows out of the way, being careful not to dump the bales at the end of the unbaled windrows. Then bale the parallel windrows, probably doing every other one first. I'm using a 10 wheel v rake, but this system should work for other types also. If the field is irregular, just do what you gotta do to get it done.
