[QUOTE="DoubleRidge, post: 5147795, member: 20594"] Great question...found this online: "A regular disk has two gangs of disks, front and rear. The front gang throws the soil out, and the rear gang pulls the soil back in place leaving it level. The Bog only has one gang of disks. The disks are normally larger on the bog than on the regular disk. The larger disks allow the bog to plow deeper than the regular disk. The bog normally will leave your soils with ridges and unlevel. The ridges can be corrected by double cutting. As you plow the field, run in the center of the previous trip over. The bog is built so as to allow weight to be added when plowing hard ground" Also read another article that said basically a bog was designed to plow in new ground that may have roots or small stumps....it will go over them or rip them up verses getting hung up on them like a traditional plow. The smaller bog disk I've seen always have larger disk...built heavier....with most having weight added So I guess being heavier...with bigger disk...and single gang....this allows it to dig or plow deeper.
