[QUOTE="1982vett, post: 735133, member: 7795"] How many acres a year are you planning to use it on? Neighbor and I went in together 4-5 years ago on a used Tye, 3-point Pasture Dream or is it a Pasture Pleaser? Forget right now, anyway it takes a little time to get the experience to get it set up for what you are doing for the type of soil. I'd recommend a pull-behind for easier depth placement but the little 3-point is working OK in our heavy soil. It is easy to get planting dept to deep in lighter soil (especially sandy) with the 3-point. I imagine any brand will work OK, but the Tye we have has some plastic parts that aren't easily changed out so I'd avoid anything with plastic seed metering parts (plastic anything for that matter) if you are going to use it a lot. I think price is going to play a large part of what you end up with. My Tye does a good job planting 2 lbs of Ball clover/acre accurately. [/QUOTE]
