Is the 39 HP: draw bar HP, PTO HP or engine HP? What does the tractor weigh? In medium soils you want 2,000 pounds per plow bottom, even more in heavy pulling soils. Often you can get more work done with a smaller plow moving steadily at 5 mph or faster than you will get done spinning and lugging down below 4 mph with too large a plow. A 2 X 12 bottom plow (i.e. CAT 1 for an N series Ford) will still cover an acre an hour at 5 mph.
If the sod ground is really dry, hard and heavily rooted, you can always hire someone else to plow it the first time. After the sod is broken it will pull easier each year after that.
