Changing from a Claydon hybrid to Weaving Sabretine?

[Rob Holmes]

After wet autumn last year I’m pondering the concept of changing my 3m hybrid to a wider Sabre tine? Anyone else done this?
Is loosing the leading tine and advantage or disadvantage?

if it was a 4 I’d swap. I’m thinking of going the other way because a claydon with a twin tine could be quite a universal tool can choose between front tine or leading discs.

@Flintstone I think?

Personally I’d change to a 4m hybrid. Went from 3 to 4m a couple of years ago and the increase in output was well worth it. Wouldn’t want to loose the leading tine aspect of the drill. 35ha is easily achievable with a 4m drilling @200kgs/ha (may not be the shortest day but can do it)

What do you pull 4m with?
