It's all in your soil. In my neighborhood, no, a 706 wouldn't even touch a 5 bottom. My 806D works hard enough with 4 bottoms. I'll be in 3rd low, sometimes in 4th low. Now, I don't know how fast he was going or how deep, but I know a guy that has the 806 gas his dad bought new, he claims they pulled a 6 bottom with it, don't remember whether it was 14's or 16's. That was 7 miles north of me on much lighter ground, though.
Point being it's possible, depending on soil conditions. Your best bet though is to take it down to a 4 bottom, or borrow a 4. Also, you're just working up a food plot, you wouldn't need to plow 6 to 10 inches deep, just a few inches. The trick may be getting it to cover while that shallow. Try it! You're going to pull it, stall it, or spin out. Just wait to try it until the neighbors AREN'T watching! LOL -Andy
