- With a upcoming FFA Plow Days event coming in less than 2 weeks, I wanted to put my newly purchased Oliver 360 plow in the ground to see if everything works as it should.
I guess we are ready to participate in the event, weather permitting!
Good video. Plowin looked good. We used a 4-16 John Deere plow on a 2940 in clay soil. It pulled it well.
My I give you a suggestion? Get two 8x8 wood blocks. On for the front wheel one for the back. With the plow mounted pull the up land wheels on to the blocks on level ground. Do a preset with the plows level with the ground.
Give it a try and see if it makes a difference.
Too you may want to add colters. Good to slice through residue.
Great job with the camera angles Steve. This was fun to watch.
That plow is working nice and going through that stubble like nothing. Your soil there is amazing.
I think your plow days will be a big success.
Take care,
Annette🌺
Thank you Annette.
The combination did work well together but I believe Oliver said their plows perform perfect using any tractor.
I’m very happy with the dirt I have just wished I owned more😂
Thanks for sharing and good luck at plow day!
Thanks for watching, hope your Labor Day weekend has been a good one sir!
I always like the job that those moldboard plows do. Nice video my Friend. Take care
Thank you, something about turning furrows is fun
That is some good ground to give the 3020 a work out, very nice Steve, looking forward to videos of the plow day
Thanks Jan
If I’m able to attend I will certainly make a video. Right now I think it’s a go.
You will do great at the plow day. You seem to be blessed with some great looking dirt. Green and green makes a good combination.
I agree, this is a good green combination that will work just fine!
Looks like you passed the test! While I've never done this, it looks good. You won't be embarrassed! Cheers Steve!
Thanks Rich.
It’ll pass, I’ve seen much worse. Dad was a stickler for getting a plow right, I should have brought him over to tell me where I was screwing up 😂
That's some nice looking ground. Enjoyed hope you can get us some video from the plow day also Thanks have a great day
Thanks, I appreciate you riding along!
If nothing pressing comes up and I can attend, I will certainly have a video of the event
You have a great day as well!
Nice camera work. You probably took a gamble, placing the camera near the moldboards. Ha ha! Good luck during the plow days, if you make it, and have fun!
Yeah I was a bit nervous about plowing it under. I kept a close eye on the camera just in case.
Thanks for watching
Nice job and nice soil. I generally plow 7-8 year old sod and I can’t get results anywhere near that smooth. Always learning 😉
I’m at an advantage Dave with ground that’s worked every year. Sod is a bit tougher to get good results.
Looks like you've got the Ol' Oliver plow setup about right for the most part. 👍🏻 Surprised that your Dad wasn't out there showing you how to setup the plow correctly. 😃 Yep, coating the mold boards of the plow with grease or paint is a must once the plowing is done. 👍🏻 Thanks for the ride along. Take care.
Thanks Ron. My wife asked me why I didn’t go get dad to help me.....he has forgot more than I’ll ever know and was a real stickler when it came to us plowing. He would have enjoyed it and looking back it would have been fun to hear him chew my ass out that I wasn’t doing it right 😂.....at least the viewers might have thought so.
Thanks again sir
@@AnglesideFarm Oh I'm sure he'd been telling you how you were doing it wrong. Yes, I'd been chuckling the whole time too. 😂 Setting up the tractor & plow probably would've been like riding a bicycle for him. 😁
Probably a good idea to practice a little and check on the adjustment of the plow before plow days. It was interesting to watch the fully mounted plow working. I have no experience with them. The last 25 years I've used only semi-mounted plows and before that I had a drag type plow. Nice combination of the 3020 and the Oliver plow. Thanks for taking us along.
Glad you came along for the ride Charlie!
Practice makes perfect I’ve heard!
where are the coulters on each furrow. Would leave a much cleaner wall on last furrow. Saves the wear on front of moldboards.
You won't be embarrassed by a Oliver plow.
I say that the Oliver plow made me look like I know what I am doing.
Thank you Steve.
Oh the plow won’t embarrass me I just don’t want to embarrass myself from operator screw ups 😂
@@AnglesideFarm I think you will be alright. Keep in mind most of the other guys will never have mold board plows.
A bit of experience goes a long way.
When I plow with other guys my only goal is to follow the furrow, and try to lift the plow in line with the plow I follow.
@@brycewiborg8095 thanks Bryce, good advice sir!
Man yeah Mr Steve 😁😁😁 Now we talking been waiting to see this one!! Man that soil is amazing!! Sure different than the red clay here! Looks like you got it tuned in pretty well!! Sure hope we get to see the plow day if you go!! Thank you my friend, have to say I wish I was doing the same here...but the time will come!! Look fwd to more Mr Steve!! 😁😁😁😉😉👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thanks Nelson
Yes your time will come!
I am blessed with some good soil, must wish I had more of it but thankful and grateful for what I do have. Thanks for watching, I know you’ve anxiously waiting for it to finally happen.
As always, I appreciate your dedicated support in the craziness we do.
@@AnglesideFarm 😁😁yes sir always!!
Nice ground you have there. The 3020 seems to handle the plow pretty good. I used to pull a 3/16 with a 4020, it had enough power, but it could easily spin out.
It seems to be a good match. Years ago when we were full time farmers I plowed with a 3020 and a 3-16 IH plow which also was a good match
Thanks for watching
Another good video sir, I’ve had guys tell me that my JD 50 will pull 3x14 mounted plows and I have seen guys do it but here at my place there’s times that 2x16 work the guys out of it. My uncle had 3 bottoms for his 3010 and 3020 and pulled 4x16 with the 4010
Thanks Craig
I’ve pulled a 2x14 behind my 50 but I’m not sure it could pull a 3 in this soil. I have a 4x16 semi mounted I bought for the 3020 and haven’t really tried it out yet but they say it would work fine....
Thanks for watching and commenting sir!
Plowing looks good. That is some beautiful black dirt.
Thanks Jerry
Yeah we got some pretty good dirt on this chunk of ground
Wow, there's quite the difference between your soil and mine. Mine is great for scouring bottoms. I've had enough plow days at my place to know that not everyone is worried as to what kind of plowing job their plow is doing. Part of it is a guy with a 12 inch bottom trying to fill the furrow of the 18 inch bottom in front of him. It's still neat to see all that soil getting turned at once. I wish I could make it over there, but it's one of those days with 10 things going on.
I sure wish you could make it Chris, but there will be more plow days in the future I hope.
Thanks for stopping by
Looks good to me but what do I know, we don’t plow dirt anymore. Take care Steve and good luck at plow days.
Thanks Tony, we will try our best
You got a hellava good plow there .... I would love to find a 360-365 Oliver 3 bottom.... Nice match for the 3020.... Thanks Steve.....
Thanks Brent
I stumbled on this plow entirely by accident and I’m glad I did.
We don't have any plow days around here- I think it would be fun. Looks like you're getting that plow dialed in!!
Chris I think you should start a plow day in your area at your farm, be the guy that starts the neighborhood tradition!
@@AnglesideFarm not very many folks around here have antique tractors so I don't think anyone would come. If I could get some TH-cam friends to come, that would be fun!
I am surprised that plow doesn’t have any coulters.
For shows I liked the rear coulter so the furrow looked crisp.
The coulters that was on the plow were junk and I haven’t found replacements yet.
@@brycewiborg8095 I hope to find coulters for it, so far no luck.
Looks good. If I tried anything else it might be to let the left lift arm down some so the plow sets flatter in the ground
Thanks
Also that is nice looking black dirt.
Thanks Bryce
It’s good soil for sure.
Beautiful fertile looking soil!
Thank you
Always nice to have it dialed in 👍
Not sure it’s dialed in as good as it could be....but it’ll turn dirt👍
@@AnglesideFarm every field is different, just get it close.
It's an Oliver, IH followed their lead, they turn dirt nicely and easily 👍
Unlike JD, they're like putting a big dozer blade in the ground...
@@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin That's true. I had a JD plow I couldn't get the draft right.
For some reason I can't understand it wanted to shift away from the furrow.
@@brycewiborg8095 we ran an old IH 4-16" semi mount and a JD, same thing..
We could pull the IH faster, same depth, same horsepower tractor.. we even traded plows on the tractors.. the IH was still faster.. and the tractor pulling it used less fuel in a day..
Parked side by side, the IH cut and rolled the ground, the JD looked more like a dozer blade on a little bit of an angle..
Very nice setup! But could you send some of that soil down to Kentucky? That soil looks amazing!
Thanks
I could mail you some in an envelope 😂😂😂
@@AnglesideFarm 😅
I wonder if the furrow wheel should be adjusted in about 6 inches to level out the finished hill
My 3020 is setup the same with 3 bottom plow. My grandfather bought this tractor new.
Glad you were able to keep the 3020 in the family
I used to use, used motor oil on the on my plow. it seemed to work well.
That is a great way to put used oil to use! Thanks for watching and commenting sir!
Good plow tutorial kind of a lost art I had an Oliver red ex three bottom plow that I used to pull on the three-point hitch behind my John Deere 60 the 60 could barely pull it looks like you’ve got some nice heavy black dirt there what kind of yields do you get off of that ground?
This year the wheat went 80.1 bu/Ac
Corn is in the 160-170 range and I can’t remember our last years bean yield but it was good.
Love it
Thank you
Nice looking dirt good dark color
Thanks Andy
Wish I had more of it.
Happy Labor Day
looking good!!!! I hope I can make it with you!!! I've got a stack of front weights if you think it may need them?
Man I hope you can make it, yet I hope you guys have that healthy baby by then too.
Thanks Frank
😊
L👀ks good to me Steve 👍🏻🇺🇸✌️👋
Thanks Scott, I think we’ll be just fine sir. 👍
You are get the plow close to being set. I wouldn't worry about embarrassing myself if I was you.
Thanks Monty
I’ve embarrassed myself in other ways in the past😂.
I think we will be fine. Thanks for watching sir, and have a great day.
@@AnglesideFarm We all embarrass ourselves from time to time.
@@VintageFarm1086 yes sir!
Some nice black dirt. We don’t have that here. Do you not plant soybeans after wheat there?
Thanks Russ. For over 25 years this ground has been corn or beans. First year for wheat, it could get planted back to corn or beans but I suspect with the clover second favorite farmer put in the ground it will be beans next year.
Now go down to your farm store and buy about 5 pounds of brassica seed and broadcast on what ya have plowed. I'll figure out how to control the deer!
Oh Jesus Mark, I don’t need that into a food plot, most of the field is already thick plow down clover. I just found a non clover spot and turned dirt.
My only question is, how come we didn’t get to see you man handle that quick hitch ????
Cause that damn hitch is heavy and I didn’t want y’all to see my struggles and cussing 😂😂😂
@@AnglesideFarm 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Back in my younger days I could barely get one on and off by myself. Now we always use the loader to hold it up to take on or off. Non of that beast mode is left in me. Lol
@@onehappyfarmer3461 I should heed your advice. I guess there’s either some beast mode left in my tank or else it’s just being hard headed.
That is some BLACK dirt right there.
It sure is, not all of it is that black but it’s all good dirt.
Thanks for swinging on in sir!
Why only a 3 bottom I pull a 4 bottom with my 64 3020
I also have a 4-16 F-145

I wanted to use my Oliver 3-16....because we were going to a FFA plow day event, and I hadn’t used it yet.

You have fertile soil there.
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
