Nice day here yesterday so we got a few tractors and plows out. With $4 fuel and $20 plow shares this is getting darned expensive but all the kids together is priceless.
Allen on the D-19 and model 70 semi mounted and Bill on the 220 with model 9000 folllowing.

Not your average daughter. Denise wants to plow not watch so we rigged up the WD with a model 72. She handles it well. I spaced her out so she wouldn't be in the boys way and in three rounds she was riding Bill's tail wheel, haha. I got in the video too. Shadow in upper left corner is stupid camera operators finger covering part of the lense.

Fantastic Butch! Looks like GREAT fun! With 6 + 4 + 2 = 12 bottoms in the ground at one time I bet the fun doesn't last as long as it used to given how much ground you are turning under at one time. That 9000 plow looks like it is tracking good behind the 220 and staying in the furrow. Glad that worked out for you. I was hoping to have a plow day myself here in April in my 16 acres south bottom but with everything I got going on right now I'm not sure if I can fit that in yet or not.

Butch,
Thanks for posting. I could watch that all day. It didn't look like there was much, if any, slippage on any of the tractors. Are the tires loaded? I didn't see any weights on them.

| D-19 and 220 have about 50% fluid in rears. WD has nothing. Traction boosters are set correctly on the WD and 19. The 220 is just brawn. |

I thought the 19 sounded great then i heard the 220 and it sounds Great too. The WD sounds real nice too but not working very hard:)
