Default a shot of snow is over due

good after noon all,
how about a little snow plowing technics, everyone does things a little diff, and we just got a covering and am chomping to test the 07 700 sportsman on some snow thats actually moveable.

so lets list some tips and tricks to move snow.

here's one i call "channeling"
pushing to south out to the center of the street, makeing a row a bit wider then your area.
now, pushing to the east to pile, the first push is just west of the pile and only about 15 % of the total length of the row. this makes the longest pushes easier and starts your channel.

now, way to the west, pushing straight east through the whole row all the way to the pile.
now ,you have your CHANNEL(a row on either side of you) to bring everything east through.
now, reverse and to the left grab a load off the end of the left row and steer into the channel and east about 3/4 of the way.
now, reverse and to the right grab a load off the end of the right row and steer into the channel grabbing the last load also and deposit to fill area.
now, of course repeat until rounds are short and bulk is clear.
now, if its an area that you want to look good pivot blade and work toward fill area until all is clear.

If you have a lot of snow wind row till good sized ,then push cross ways to you wind row ,skipping a blade length ,that way your giving your self less snow to push when you've done that along your whole windrow ,then you can resume pushing your row again .
