Henry and Glen, you haven't seen this land. The deer and elk don't like it much- it kinda sucks.
I just wanted you guys' opinions on which tractor you would use to prepare the land.If you had two good working tractors side by side, would you choose the JD AW or a 420 or 430 and why. I hope I'm not getting this too complicated. The rest of you guys also jump into this anytime you want. I really do want your input.

Ok, I'm not sure what kind of grass deer and elk there would like? I just posted before because we once had some land in New Mexico mountains at about 8600 ft. that needed more cover and we interseeded a cool season grass mix and the crested wheat grass in mix done really well in rains. Here in dry Texas panhandle hardly any of those cool season grasses will grow except in the shade with some roof runoff if we have any. Part of last year was wet here before it got dry again and we had crested wheat grass shooting up everywhere I had planted 6 or 8 years ago but then the summer heat burnt it off quick. We are getting more deer and antelope here now (and mountain lions) but have mixes of grass in CRP rangeland or native grasses that won't grow at higher elevations. Check with a county agent in your area and see if they can recommend something. Can probably buy a JD A for less than the 420 and 430 but those are handy nimble little tractors with nice 3 points and I believe they had draft control also? You won't have as nice a 3 point on the A like the 420,430 or 520,530,620,630. I've never had a 420 or 430 as every one I find here is done worn out. lol.
