What size disc?

[Gatormark]

I have a 3800 HST and want to do some food plots next year,we have sandy soil in C Fla,what is the best disc for my area?

Hummm.... check with Bcbull378, I know he has an L3800 and is pulling a disc. A 6 footer I do believe.

I have an L3750 4wd and pull a 7foot tanden in sandy loam. if you bog down just raise it a little and get moving first. Just for food plots a 6 foot disk should be fine. If you plow something much bigger hire someone with a big tractor and an offset disk.

Howdy I have a L3830 and use a 3 Pt 6'9" disc made by John Deere Killefer tractor handles it great . I also had a Gearmore 6' disc but just wasnt heavy enough for my soil (adobe clay) but in your sandy loam it would work great. Look on craigslist I have found most all of my used equipment there.....Dan

I bought a tandem four footer that looks like new for 200 bucks

I have a IH trail type that is either 9 or 10 ft. My L3000 pulls it fine in 4wd.
