- The match plough training days have proved to be very popular. The organisers have managed to find some more land to run another event this spring. We manage to capture and explain some more important aspect of match ploughing.

If I had the knowledge I'd give scores but as it is I'm just in awe of the skill. I'm amazed at the amount of adjustment involved. Another great vid
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks.
These videos are invaluable. I went to a ploughing match this January as observer just to watch the different stages. Thanks from Ireland.
Glad we are able to make ploughing matches more interesting for you.
Wish I could be there, thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks.
Thanks I’ve really enjoyed seeing how much effort these guys put into plowing I found a couple of two bottom plows in the next town over . People don’t do this around here but I would like to give it a try
You should try it. Can you find someone to help you get started?
Another excellent video! What these chaps achieve is brilliant in most cases! I'm not qualified to mark a score, just wonderful to watch!
Many thanks!
Trailing Ploo makes the best job..
Ah yes wine glass ends. Took a bit to work out how to avoid them when I first started my ploughing career with a TW20 and a 7 F semi mounted Dowdeswell reversible plough in the 1980’s near Dover. Later I moved on through TW35 plus a Rabe slatted furrow push pull set up and ended up contract ploughing in Bedfordshire/Northants first with 2 Cat D8’s plus 10/11 F Dowdeswell trailed ploughs and then finally a Challenger 75D & Dowdeswell 11 F DD high clearance plough. Very different sort of ploughing to turn in a lot of chopped straw fast into clay soils with crude semi digger setups leaving a rough surface ready to work down nothing like the video.
I’m no match ploughman so don’t know the technical side of conventional match ploughing but I’ll have a go.
Aside from the obvious technical points you highlighted I would mark most of those efforts in the high teens as below:
Straight-Most were very good
Matching furrow shape & sizes- Most did this very well
Evenness of furrow height and form across the plots- Most were nice and even producing a level surface.
Surface plant/trash material fully turned in a buried effectively.- All very good
Ends- Mostly even & tidy with no bends. Furrows well formed and soil fully turned at the trip mark.
Starts and finishes- too technical for me but they mostly matched up very well leaving even finishes with all surface litter properly buried
Overall I would have struggled to sort a winner - there was a lot of extremely good work which looked a real picture👍👌
Thanks for the video
Thanks for sharing your ploughing history. You have worked some very impressive setups! Thanks also for commenting on the match ploughing.
Another great video ! Not easy ploughing with a crowd of people watching things some times go wrong ! But they are doing a good job ! I'll give them all 10 out 10 !
Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for the support.
Really enjoyed the training day wouldn't presume to leave a score on folk who would rings around me ploughing. Keep up the videos, look forward to them
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks 👍
Just a great video. I certainly can’t make any comment on points. It all looks good to me. But I’ve been in that problem with the finish.
That was wonderful ground to be ploughing. I seen thing in this video that are firmlar, but don’t understand some of it. But. I only plow once a year sadly. And it’s more of a fun thing for me. But would be nice to understand more. And I just have a Ferguson tractor and plow. So adjustments are limited. But a nice working basic Ferguson plough can do a very nice job at ploughing.
A question. Are the furrows not judged the first 6 feet and the last 6 feet. I’ve heard of that, but the judges here judge it all.
Thanks again for this video. I quite enjoyed it. I may watch it again. 👋👋
Pleased to hear that there was useful info in the video for you. The judging process includes all aspects of the ploughing including the following items - Opening split, Start, Seed bed, Firmness, Uniformity, Finish, Ins and outs, Straightness and finally, General appearance. I think our UK system is similar, if not identical to, the world system.
@@Casterton-Vintage I think you’re right.
Excellent video picked up a few pointers along the way 👌 as for points for the various rigs throughout the day afraid i dont feel qualified to comment on what for the most part was excellent ploughing 💪💪👍
Glad to hear the video was useful.👍
7:45 looks like somat I’d do
Hi would you do one of these videos with horses ploughing
I would if I could find a field full of horses ploughing. Have you seen this video? th-cam.com/video/ExI6DxS8XWU/w-d-xo.html
