Now that you have my brain in gear, we didn't do every acre of corn 
either. We had a bunch of clay that needed busted up if plowed too wet.  
The muck bottoms we did not culti-pack. We did wheat and oats ground 
also, but that was usually less than 50 acres. I could turn on a dime 
with a spring tooth harrow, only took ONCE of getting the harrow up on 
the rear wheeel and lesson learned :)
