I know it's a very sensitive topic. I've got some clay based pastures that have been pastured for at least 60 years. I'd like to bust up any hard pan this fall. I've looked at a hay king renovator. I'm wondering, I already have a 5 shank v-ripper (basically a 5 shank subsoiler). Could I just remove #2 and #4 rippers to make it 3 shanks. I don't think it'd pull hunks/clods up with the shanks that far apart, but I'd probably pull a drag behind it anyway. Will this idea work or am I wasting my time?
