Yeah, WINTER is one of my favorite implements for busting gumbo clumps, but it takes so darn long to finish. Also, you have to time your plowing when using WINTER. Last year I used WINTER too soon and couldn't get my plow in the ground until spring.
When you can't use WINTER, THUNDERSTORM has a great new product called HEAVY RAIN that works wonders on those clumps. In some of my fields, you can't even consider them seeded until I use HEAVY RAIN on them, because there is no seed-to-soil contact. It's a great product and works well, but sometimes it takes a while before it's delivered when you order it.
Also, I don't think you can disk it too low if you try. I have tractor rear wheel weights strapped on my disk, and it still just skims the surface. You can bust the clumps by disking a LOT. You might not see a noticible difference every pass, but there is a huge difference between one or two passes and five.
