Subject: Great Plains Solid Stand Drill


central texas
I have a great plains solid stand drill and i am trying to drill winter wheat into heavy corn residue. We are bone dry, this is tilled land for a little background have been over with a disk and field cultivator to smooth out. When i have the drill down it tries to act like a bulldozer and push dirt have adjsuted the drill up and down still cannot go. In two solid days i have drilled sixty acres with a 24 foot drill, not fun. I am constantly having to get off the tractor and clean and level out debris from in front. all bearings and disk seem to be in average condition. any tips. or suggestions. Wrong tool for the job?? do i have it set wrong ? I have some smaller clods and ample corn residue that seems to be the culprit. It seems that one corn stock feeding through wrong will create the bulldozer effect. can i remedy this

extremely frustrated, thanks
The gold is looking a little brown
