[QUOTE="Tractor Boy, post: 7754123, member: 2326"] I had a V drill for about 9 years. You needed short stubble, well chopped straw and to drill in the dry or it was a pain. Beans give you a bit more leeway as I used the narrow seed points instead of A shares which had more clearance. 5 years ago I bought a 750a. This requires the complete opposite, namely longer stubble meaning less chopped straw. At first I kept the V drill but it was pointless because whilst combining you were having to cut long stubble in the hope of using the JD which meant the V drill would’ve had no chance or if you cut really short stubble hoping to use the V drill you’ve basically made sure the JD wouldn’t do a good job due to hairpinning.
