Default Snow Plow

I have a Sportsman 500. How good does a snow plow work with it. I have a paved driveway about a 200ft long up a slight hill and its flat at the top. Should i buy a plow or a snowblower. Thanks

That's a no brainer IMO.
Get the plow and have fun clearing the drive way.
If you have kids, they'll be fighting over who gets to plow the thing.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Plow! Jonny8... are you who I think you are??? (. )( .)... assuming your from Cadillac, MI

Anyway I have a 300' driveway that I cleared with my Magnum 500 and it worked great and had inclines as well. I just picked up a Sportsman 600 the other night.

I have a snow plow and I plow the street in front of my house at about 30mph. No problem.

Thanks for the info on the plow for the 500 Sportsman. I think im going to go with the New Polaris Glacier setup. Does anybody have any input on that.

I have to reinforce the above I've plowed snow with my 335 sportsman that I couldn'd move with my snowblower. The only advice I could give is to push the snow as far as you can to make room for the next storm and its fun.

Just alittle more advice; I would get the rubber spacers for the front struts.

I have a Glacier on my 600 and would recommend highly. Once you have the mounting plate on [8 bolts on mine] it you just drive intoit, hook the winch on, lift and it snaps into place. Blade lifts about 13" which is much better than the other Polaris mount.
