    Default 3pt hitch rotary tillers

    Thinking about purchasing a 60" rotary tiller for my tractor. Will use for garden (small), dove field and food plots. Currently use disc harrows or spring plow, someone told me you have to plow really slow. Anybody use one? What brand? Recommend or not?

    I use a 6 ft from tractor supply and love it. I use it for what you want to do with one. You do have to run it slow and if you have rocky soil it will beat it to death.

    I had a Kuhn and it was VERY nice. Had it behind a Kubota B2920 and it worked like a champ.

    Ran one all last week in duck impoundments at about 12-13mph but I was running over dirt that had already been disced and was incorporating fertilizer and trying to get a good seed bed....btw it was a kuhn 60" I believe

    I use one.

    I run a bottom plow and turn everything over good but it will be rough, then go back with the tiller and smooths and fluffs the ground up real pretty
