Best plow for my 806?

What would be the best plow for me?

I was told that an IH 710 or 720 would be a good plow for my tractor. Most of the plows I've seen are 5 bottom, but these seem pretty big for my small fields.

Did IH make the 710 or 720 in 4 bottom (I'd certainly hate to cut down a plow--seems like sacriledge)?

Because of the hills, erosion, etc., plowing isn't something I plan to do often, just every few years as needed.

I think the guys that have never been around the spinners find them to be a bit 'weird' or 'strange', even though you and I find them to be totally commonplace.

Make 2 or 3 rounds on one and you'll never go back to an old fashioned one-way after you see what these things will do. :>)

Downside is not their weight as some might think (as they are no heaver than a cultivator, wide snow blower or even a heavy duty bush hog), but rather the price; they are admittedly more costly because one is buying twice the plow.

But, they are worth the price, IMHO.

I haven't seen too many roll overs here in NE Iowa, but the 5-16's are common enough.

I think a IH 710 or 720 5-16 would work very nice for you. We pull 4 with a 706D.

Don't get me wrong, roll over plows work well anywhere. There is a guy down road from me has an 8x16 semi-mount roll over plow. He has fields a mile long. He can plow the whole field and never leave a wheel track on his plowing. Down with the double dead furrow.

I just can't say enough good about these plows. Massey model 570 (I think). They cut a 4X18 swath and pull like an IH with 3 16" bottoms. Your 8 should handle one very nicely, I would think.

The nice part about 'em is that you can turn 'em around on a dime.
