Ric, I was wondering if this was your first experience with plowing? If so there is more to it than just hooking up the plow and taking off. Your tractor will love you for learning to set the plow properly.

Let her float. The soil pressures will keep the plwo going straight. You need to let the tractor move as needed. Just the three points. No stabilizer bars.

MF Poor is right. No stableizer bars when plowing. The plow needs to have some movement sideways.

Otherwise, it's like having a fixed rudder on a boat. You can't steer.
