Hunting buddy had a old 8’ offset.
It cut good. Would bust up new ground.
Part of the frame broke, he took it to a welding shop and had it rebuilt. “To make it better” they said.
They fugged with the offset angles. Never was the same.
It was as if the fromt amd rear gangs fought each other. Would bounce more than it cut.
He probably needs to restore the front back to the original position. The back is more adjustable, and forgiving with those adjustments. (From what I remember of running one years ago...)
