I like the bracket on the plow hitch to tweek left or right a tad to get the bottoms to full cut.

Everytime I tried to use colters on cornstalks in the fall all they did was plug the plow by dragging the stalks that caught on them. Pitch them in the junk pile and go. No it is not as pretty but could keep plowing without plugs. I always did admire a good plowing job though. Plowing with the cat we always plowed on land even with 4 16's

Impossible to plow corn stalks without coulters and you just did not have the right coulters.

You got that backwards. On the small plows they plug easy. Always had to take them off.

That is impressive. That soil doesn't look anything like ours....no stones.

I have the instruction book for my 3x14 mounted Allis plow and I diddle around with it every spring and still can't get all three to plow at the same depth and the front plow is either hogging in or not turning 14 inches. I just make a dirty streak!

On the 12 inch plows did have to have coulters on but the factory ones did not work. You needed Yetter coulters to get them to do the job, The Yetter used a 16 inch disk blade and run at an angle. We had them on Ferguson 2-12 inch, David Bradly 2-12 inch. John Deere 2-12 inch, John Deere 3-12 inch amd Massey 3-12 inch and if you adjusted them correctly NO PROBLEM with stalks, Cot the first ones back in early to mid 50's. The straight factory coulters did not work as should for stalke. And with no coulters the stalks would wrap around the beams and plug instantly. Ran nothing but Yetter coulters from mid 50's untill 1980 and still had the Yetter on the other ploes.
