Default Plow question?

I would like to sell my snowblower and buy a plower for my sportsman. Does anyon have experience with the plows for the polaris? What would you recommend? I was thinking about a 48" flat blade.

personally i would keep the snowblower which does a cleaner job. i know a couple of guys that have the moose and the other had the country. seems to do ok but w/alot of snow takes forever cleaning the driveway and need chains for the tires.

i push 60inch cycle country plow with my (little) 400 sportsman and i love it..i plow a 1/4 pvt drive so a snow blower would take a while .. i like the quad because in is a lot more nimble than some oil pos truck that might not start... the quads fun,quick and the kids love it and by the way you get to ride!!!!!!

I have Glacier plow on my 06 500 sp. It works great. I can clean the driveway in about 1/2 the time it takes to snowblow. The only complaint is that the mount which I put on in the fall and remove in the spring reduces ground clearance. My driveway is plowed and I am always careful to remove all the snow to the pavement to avoid ice which will require chains the next time.

I have the Glacier plow and use them in a commercial business and love it I do not understand the clearance issue it only takes about 1 inch away. In deep snow the last couple of runs I sit on the front with my feet on the plow and hands behind me that gets it down to the pavement

I have a 48" straightblade with the electric lift (whole set up was $525 delivered)which also swings right and left 45 degrees for faster plowing on my scrambler 500 4x4 and I absolutely love it. My driveway is 10 feet wide and 100 feet long.I plow it in less than 3 minutes.Snowblower takes 20,shovel takes 40.Plus the latter isn't any fun!
Buy it right now or I slap you square in the face!

Nice,
I was getting some bad feedback about them, but I really want one.

I have a 72" cycle country plow on my 500 Sportsman, It works very good. I'll never snow blow or shovel again if i can help it.
You can't move as much as a truck but you can get in smaller spots.
I'm just waiting on some snow.

I have a 60" Polaris plow that I use on my Magnum 425. It works twice as good as my snowblower did and is much quicker. I also bought a set of chains just for the rear (only about $35) and I never have to turn the 4x4 on no matter how steep the drive.

Great, I am going to get one for sure now. Now I just have to decide what kind and who wants my new snowblower.
