I just plowed a larger field a week ago. I split the feild into several sections. I was between a feild that was plowed last fall toward the inside, and on the other side a feild that was sub soiled last fall. I started on the side that was plowed, threw into the furrow from last fall and made a split up the feild, plowed that all out. (ccw)
I didn't like where the dead furrow was gonna come out so I started on the other side in the middle of the field going around it CW. Once that side was done, I went to the otherside and went back to going CCW. In that 10 acre feild there are only 2 dead furrows, and there wasn't too much time on the headlands.
I have also split feilds into 3, did the 2 outside peices CW until I was at the edge of the feild and then in the middle went CCW. If I figure it right, that only leaves 1 dead furrow in the middle of a large feild, and 2 furrows on either outside edge of the feild that keeps the residential neighbors in check.
Maybe someday I'll find a 2 way plow and be able to flip it at the end of the feild and go back in the same furrow I came from, and have no dead furrows.
