They take some getting used to, recall how you back a single axle trailer, steering the opposite way you want the trailer to go. With a 2 axle trailer, (mostly hay wagons around here) it adds one more pivot to the equation, so you have to focus on the tongue, to make sure the steering axle is turned opposite the way you want it to go, problem is it is too easy to over steer and then recover when you do. It takes practice and some tractors, various tongue lengths etc. don't make it any easier. I find that a tractor like a 620 JD with a narrow front, works well, my farmer friends son can back those wagons in easily, but that comes from all those years of doing small square bales. I tried to put one in the barn hooked to a JD 3150 mfwd, farmer was laughing, kind of tight quarters, but I should have been able to do it, we always had 3 of them here, just takes practice with the tractor used for em. When I helped shuttling wagons to field and barn, I'd leave em ready to hook and back in with that 620, when he's done baling, its 1-2-3 for him, fun to watch, just have to spot the back end, some people get really good at it.
To be honest, give me a tractor with a loader & forks, skidsteer with forks, one fork with a hole for a pin, problem solved, real easy. We have a set of forks, that I did not want to cut a hole in and I can do better with those in the tongue hitch, without a pin, sometimes it falls out, just pick it up again, they seem to be easy if using the front of a tractor with forks or a bumper hitch.
