I've run single gang GT size disk's, 6-8ft 3pt disks, and 40'+ on big boy machines, none of which had the gangs "straight". Just saying.

Also just saying do what works for you, but that doesn't mean it'll work for the rest of the world. It also doesn't mean it's the accepted and practiced way to do things.

Ok, now back into the shadows I go.
When I was a kid I worked at the farm up the road, and at the time they farmed around 3,500 acres, had 120 dairy cows, around 200 beef cows, and a couple thousand hogs. I pulled their disc, v ripper, and tilloll with an old Steiger and with the big Cummins and 20 speed transmission it was a real blast for a 14 year to drive lol. That's what I'm used to, and this mini-size equipment isn't any where the close to the same.
