new planter

It is a Taylor Pasture Dream 5' drill made in Miss by the same company that makes the Taylor Big Red Forklifts. Still family run. The dad started with a log dog based on a surplus 6x6 truck to drag logs out of the swamps to the Dummyline RR. He then made 3 versions of the Pasture dream- 10",15" 20", in 3pt and a kit for a tongue. settle on the 20" for overall max production in pastures Stopped making them sometime in the 60's when the forklift mfg.part took off. It works good but is limited to food plots and overseeding at only 20". It had a mechanical shutoff that operated when raising and lowering that was worn too bad to adjust seed and fertilizer rates. I got it cheap and took all that stuff off and rigged a small cylinder. Works great. Yin-Yout- On and Off!
