What about a Hay King Pasture Renovator first pass after you get the hay off, or cut and bale undesirable forage and use if for erosion control? If really heavy compaction, like some I am helping with, hasn't seen steel for 40+ years, make an X with 2 passes over the field. Then a heavy weighted One Way dragging a spike toothed, chain harrow behind. Then regular disc again dragging the harrow, ready to plant.
I like to use freeze-thaw to pulverize sod and soil and soil I worked up in the summer, can be easily smoothed after such, after it dries, with light tillage equipment....I have a little Ford 2000, unweighted for that task.

The Pasture Renovator gets you by that problem.
