Plow Depth Question

I have a question on plow depth on my 2 bottom plow. It seems like it isn't going very deep. I have both trips up all the way (to lower plow) and have the clutch engaged. It seems like the molboards don't go but a few inches deep and if there is any grass on the surface it catches and binds up into a mess and gets caught in front of the molboards. Shouldn't the molboards go down quite a ways? It does a good job where the beans were combined, but if there is any little trace of grass, it causes a big mess. What should I do?

Thanks

Justin: Sounds to me as though you have both items the other guys mentioned wrong. You need coulters and you need new points. When a plow point gets worn to the extent it is turned up on the end, it acts just like a sled runner, and will ride the plow right out of the ground.

Are you using coulters to cut the grass ahead of the moldboard?

how are your points? The tips need to be turned down slightly to give it "suck"
