Looking for experience with the plotmaster, land pride, RTP genesis, or the woods food plot planters?
Pros?

Haven't run any of the above, but LP and Great Plains are one in the same.

What are you wanting out of a drill?

One to two pass planting with blends.

I run a GP 3P606NT. And it’s probably the best drill I’ve ever used. I no tilled jap millet with it this year with great success.

The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.
Man, y'all have some deep pockets on this site. Y'all buy the stuff that I can only dream about. Right now the hype is obviously the Genesis for true no-till. A friend's neighbor has a Tar River no-till drill. He plants food plots for people on the side and says he likes it. It's considered more of a "light-duty" drill, but I think it's also priced accordingly.
As for seeders, the Firminator is supposed to be a good one. Their RT model has a tiller up front.

There's a Woods PSS60 and a Bush Hog brand seeder on FB right now. The PSS is priced right, but since it's the PSS and not the FPS, it has the spiked wheels up front instead of discs. The Woods will plant up to three different seeds at two different depths.
I have a Tar River drill as well. It is a light duty drill but plants most seeds very well. I have the 6’ model. I planted sunflowers in a dove field as well as planted magic carpet in deer plots. About to plant fall plots with it. There is a place in Greer that sells the drills for a couple few thousand less than all other places.
I have been very pleased with it but I’m only planting about 15 acres twice a year.
I appreciate y’all help.
Have you looked at Kasco? Plants eveything and is priced reasonably.
After talking to a few people and doing a lot of research I have decided that I am gonna go with the Tar River SAYA505.
Going to start calling around this week and see where one is.

We have a woods planter.
https://www.woodsequipment.com/produ...ls.aspx?id=470.
We use it a lot! I chose it becasue the frame is bulkyer and it had less moving parts. It is not a true grain drill and it is not a true no till drill (even though according to the irs it is condiered no-till so we got a tax break).
We looked at a lot and this seemed to be the sturdyist. I am not knocking any of the others but this has worked very well to plant everything except corn.
Sorghum, chufa, clover, oats, wheat, rye, turnips, buckwheat, millet, fescue, burmuda, sunflowers.
We have planted that and even found out it plants native grasses and wildflowers. We did that for a client and the USDA said we are the only ones in the upstate that produced any results.
