High cut ploughing

[Wilbur_Chinn]

Thinking about having a go at high cut ploughing. Can't find much information online. Does anyone know any books on the job? Or where I can get information from?
Cheers

There is a good instructional video, "High Cut Ploughing" with David Bonning.It may be hard to find now but it was filmed and produced by Roger Newbery, The Chase, Ringwood, Hants,BH24 2AN. Tractor noise does interfere with the dialogue which is a shame.

I am privileged to have known both these ploughmen and I believe David Bonning had the edge.There is no comparison between the videos, Davids is a professionally produced instructional item, for High Cut only, and is recorded in much better conditions.

Think I got the very last one. In the box is a sheet of paper with 10 pointers which apply to all ploughing. Well worth a look. A practical video from one of the all time ploughing greats. A true gentleman. A lovely lovely man and as you say Harry - a privilege to have known him.

Quite so. I was also honoured to be offered his share making kit and business, I turned it down, feeling it would be more sense for a younger man to take it on, sadly it seems no one has.

Is that the "one foot " press?
