I want to find a plow to add as an accessory implement for my 720 Row Crop with 3-pt. Would a disk plow or a moldboard plow have a better collector appeal. By the way, my 720 is in orignial condition and I plan to use it on my farm for several years then restore it. I would plan to use the plow also. I've heard that disk plows pull easier. I'm curious as to whether I should look for a 3 or 4 disk plow...that is if I decide on a disk plow. I think that a 3-pt plow would be my preference. But, will my 3-pt on my 720 hold up to the weight of a fully mounted 3 or 4 bottom 2-way roll over disk plow? I know this post is sort of confusing, so here's the meat...
I just want some opinion as to what to buy as far as useability and collectability goes? Tyler in MO

Hi Tyler, Just bought a 825 John Deere roll-over three bottom, mostly for show. I'll be putting it on my 630. It has factory wide front, factory front weights with the additional front slab. This plow dates back to the late 50's and early 60's. Always liked the looks of them. It took several years to find this one. On the subject of mounted disc plows, I've never been lucky enough to even get to see one of them.

Without commenting on what your 3 point can lift and carry comfortably it would boil down to what type of ground you have to workwith. With my hardscrabble ground I try to plow as little as possible. When I do I cant say enough for an auto-reseting moldboard plow. What little Ive heard about disc plows is that they work best in stone and sod free conditions. I hope someone with more knowledge can add more to your question.
