This video is from the third in a series of Classic and Vintage match plough training days.
After the success of the first two events the organisers have come up with new ideas and arranged for two demonstration plots to be ploughed in stages before the rest of the ploughmen had a go on their own plot.
I have tried to show and comment on some of the basic aspects in the hope of helping people that are trying to learn the art of match ploughing.
We would like to know if you found the video and the event useful. Please leave a comment below and don't forget to click the "thumbs up" button to give it a like.
On behalf of the ploughmen, I would like to thank the organisers of the training days for the valuable service they are providing for the art of match ploughing.

it's great to see people of all ages learning to plough.

Cracking vid, as a complete novice the only extra I would like is a bit of commentary on why the ploughmen make seemingly constant adjustments to the ploughs from one end to the other, compared to setting the plough at the start of the furrow and then just driving to the other side. Cheers!

Glad you enjoyed the video. To answer your question, if the furrows don't match properly you need to make some adjustment and when you know one part of the plot ploughs differently to the other, you make sure you adjust to compensate before you see the error 😊😊

Without doubt the best instructional video I have found on here, learnt alot from it.... Your commentary is very helpful and I suggest that if you do another video like this maybe you could go into even more detail.... Thanks

@@Casterton-Vintage I have recently bought a Furguson Tef20 and Furguson plough ready to have a go at some ploughing matches this year. I cant wait to get the plough in the ground and try it out. I work as a tractor driver and have done a lot of ploughing over the years but never had a go at conventional ploughing so the info on the start and finish has really got me thinking👍

Thanks. It was a good day. I'm not sure how Richard managed to concentrate that well with all those people crowding round and talking to him.

Another good one. Take me back to my dad teaching me. First with a trailed plough with the old Fordson . Then a few years later me showing him with our first 3 point linkage 3 furrow plough 😊

Thanks. I don't think my Dad would have taken any notice of me when it came to ploughing! 🤣

I've always felt i should go match ploughing but finding the time is another thing, but i do use all my old tractor's ploughing at home so i sort of get my fix and I'm happy at that. Good video, making my own videos does soke up a lot of time though ❤

Thank you for the video. Although I had to utilise all my English skills to comprehend it, I appreciate the effort. The subject matter appears to be quite intricate, with varying ground and weather conditions. However, the riders seem to have an in-depth knowledge of their machines, down to the last screw. They plow more effectively than what is shown in the video. Greetings from Germany

Thanks for the comment. Your English is very good. Sadly I cant manage more than single words in any other language and I struggle with English sometimes 🤣

If there is a suitable event I will try to be there with the camera but the basics are all the same. Probably the biggest difference would be the correct finishing width.
