Anyone ever used a disc behind a 4 wheeler that actually worked? I have tried a couple different discs that were too light and wouldn't work the ground. I tried adding weight, but it just didn't work. The plots that I am trying to work aren't accessible with a tractor, so I need something that is heavy enough to dig in, but can be pulled with a 4 wheeler.
The two plots have been worked before, so I don't need a plow. I see a variety of ATV discs out there that cost 2K and up, but I was hoping for some actual reviews from some folks on here on something they have seen work.

Have you look at the GroundMAxxx ATV disc. They get good reviews for smaller plots

Have you considered renting a sub compact tractor and tiller? The setup I have will get just about anywhere a ATV or utv will go.
Can probably rent one for $300 or $400 a day? Maybe less
In decent soil I can do an acre in approx.1 & 3/4 hours, and end up with a good seed bed in one pass.

I use a groundhog max with my atv and it works pretty good.

I used an old 8' single gang with cinder blocks on top, angled pretty good, and it worked well on previously worked ground.
I suppose it depends on soil type and compaction and moisture in the ground. pulled with utv, but could have pulled with my atv no question.

I've actually been looking at the Groundhog Max. I'm glad to hear of someone that has used it and worked well. That may be the best way to go.

We have tried a smaller tractor but got it stuck crossing a ditch/creek. That is the big issue with this plot, a 4 wheeler is about the only way to do it.
Thing is, I've never killed a deer on this plot but it sure gives us a good inventory on the deer that are around.

Yeah, I have read lots of good things about the GroundHog Maxx on various forums. I was really looking hard at them, then I fell into a great deal on a tractor

yes indeed, I had male tubes welded on and added weights. Worked great, but it takes time and many passes. Unfortunately it was stolen.

I have used this for the past couple years and haven't had any issues.

I would think a small cultivator and drag harrow would be best. It's hard to get a disc heavy enough for a 4 wheeler to pull.

I would agree with this statement. A disc plow works better on ground already broken up. A tine cultivator would be best. I break up around 3 acres a year with my atv cultivator and I would have to say, the tines do a great job.

If it's a ditch you can use a chain saw and cut poles to fill the thing with . Just be prepared to do it again next year.
