I remember that seeing that tractor. I thought it was odd that a fairly modern tractor was pulling a pull type plow with a mechanical lift. It was doing a good job though, and a nice looking tractor. I enjoyed seeing all the tractors plowing. The soil is amazing, it looks like potting soil you have to buy around here. I wished I had picked up a few clods and brought them home. I could have potted a plant or two.

They used an old pull type plow so they could pull a 2 bottom with the 160 . Kinda hard to find 2 bottom 3 pt AC plow . They wanted all the 100 series tractors to pull AC plows and a 3 bottom might have been too much for the 160

Ground looks a bit dry this year.  I guess Creston didn't get stuck?

Three point works fine. Original plan was a three point 2 bottom but owner was unable to bring it so we went with the backup plan.
