Plow day

[trentonford3000]

I went to a plow day and the ground was extremely hard i was having troubles with the tractor bouncing and jumping keeping the plow in the ground and the bottom kept tripping but i think i figured out the problem with that.it is a ford 3000 with a massey ferguson 2-16 Are there any tips tricks or advice for plowing hard ground? Please share stories and advice im sure many others would like to hear the stories:thumbsup:http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/images/smilies/2/thumbsup.gif

Only thing I can add to plowing hard ground is to do it after a big rain. It softens the ground. Or in the case up here we got 3" of rain in 2 hours and made all the tilled ground go like pudding.

If the plow kept poping out of the ground it was not set correctly. EA has some good videos on proper set up.
