I'll probably buy one of the ATV pull-behind flip-over types by next spring. They're not as heavy as the three-point hitch tractor cultipackers, but I've heard they work fine for food plotting.I'd love to have a cultipacker around the 4-5 ft range. The plotmaster would be too much for what I need.
You need some weight and I have my wheels not even touching the ground .I would guess it all has to do with your soil. I tried just a disc on my Forman 500 around here with no luck. I had it adjusted so the back tires were barely touching the ground and rode around in circles for a long time and still had grass on top mostly. Too much rock around here.
Are you going solid or the type you fill with sand or water?I'll probably buy one of the ATV pull-behind flip-over types by next spring. They're not as heavy as the three-point hitch tractor cultipackers, but I've heard they work fine for food plotting.
Tried it with me and a 200lb friend on the back. Just too hard of ground where I tried it.You need some weight and I have my wheels not even touching the ground .

That would work for me. But I was also looking at this one.This type:
I won't be using it to cultipack tilled ground, just to "shake" seed down through mowed duff.
This is something similar to what I have . But mine only has disks . It cuts decently but to get deeper you need a tractor or tiller .That would work for me. But I was also looking at this one.

It has an optional wheel kit also.
If I were cultipacking tilled ground, I would want a big, heavy three-point hitch version. But I'm just looking for something that will increase seed to soil contact when broadcast seed into mowed and sprayed areas.This is something similar to what I have . But mine only has disks .

I have a tractor and Tiller so I need it for the same. Just don't want.anything that is to heavy or wide. Would be using it at home and at the club.If I were cultipacking tilled ground, I would want a big, heavy three-point hitch version.

You should see what it does to a truck pulling a disk!Breaking new ground with atv is really hard on the atv.
