The group that uses the swinging drawbar loose as needed, and pinned when needed is on track. The point of pull will actually favor the turn by pulling toward the side of the drawbar displacement because it is in front of the rear wheels.

Pulling a 4 section spike tooth drag with an Farmall H, using a ring and link chain style hitch to a 2" pipe main tube was a 20 hrs/yr task. The only time I ran the drag up on a tire was when my cousin pinned the drawbar, and the point of pull was forced to be centered behind the tractor. With it pinned the turning radius was 135'. With it free, the radius was about 45' (I could make a circke about 20 ' in diameter with the inside edge of the drag. (wheels were set mid axle dish out)
