That Marten Harrow looks nice. Any other comments on it?

Mark R., appreciate it, my info was out of date.

Tine harrow is an option worth considering - pretty aggressive I would think.

No probem. I steel tine can indeed be aggressive. I think that is where the adjustability comes into play. You can run it with the teeth in the fully foward position (very aggresive) to break up hard park soil and manure. Or you can move the teeth to full rear position (least aggressive) which barely scratches the surfaces.

I have problems with the martens maintaining good contact with the ground where I have clumps of sod such as Dallis grass. Only the front two rows do the job in those cases. Other than that issue, it works well.

To be honest, Scott did mention this in another thread prior to me purchasing my Marten's harrow. There is definitely more pressure placed on the front three rows of teeth than the rear two. I made some adjustments to my top link and it helpout a lot but you never will get a pefect or should I say equal amount pressure on all 5 rows. Nevertheless, I am happy with the results especially with the cutting and spreading of manure.
