Agree that a planter has better seed spacing, but there is no other drill that will come close to the Deere on consistent penetration, depth, and seed-soil contact. Seeding rate is pretty good once you get it adjusted.
New blades, boots, placement and closing wheel bearings, maybe gauge wheel tires, and a used Deere will be good for many years. I woul look for a late 750 or a 1590. The early 750's had way too many grease zerks, the 1560's had too few, and a two-piece boot that didn't work out so well. The 1590's finally had all the bugs worked out, and with the slanted top, you can actually fill them up without pushing seed by hand. | |
