I was tempted to have one of my kids or the boss lady video it. But i figured that would be kinda rude to the poor guy, You could see he was not very happy that his pride and joy let him down.

I have a GT235 It is a good mowing tractor, wife uses it.  No way would I try it in the snow.

In the summer he does his mowing but he purchased a snowblower for it and he hoped it would perform as nice. But he said he cant get traction with any setup he tries. I do believe the coating of ice under the snow is what allowed for his incident to happen.

Ditto. 40+ years ago, neighbors watched my 8 hp Horse clear snow, turn earth, and mow. 

Couldn’t believe their eyes. ;)

Love it, just love it.  I can plow snow in any gear, at idle with my 6.5hp Yanmar diesel powered Commando 8.   Only reason I throttle up is the get the cylinder temp up so she stops smoking and doesn't start wet stacking from running cold to much.  Need to find the small slot hitch moldboard plow this coming spring.  Thanks for posting!

Many years ago took a single moldboard plow off a multi bottom plow. The gang wasn't being used, farmer didn't have a problem. Gave him a few bucks.

Welded  a length of 1/2" x 2" flatbar to the setup, drilled a 1/2" dia pin hole.

Worked great in the old Horse's sleeve hitch. :handgestures-thumbupright:
