GPS guidance in irregular fields

[Blisteredknuckles]

When planting in a field with strange angles and curves found that GPS was helpful in keeping me on track but definitely needed some fine-tuning. How do you approach guidance in fields that have irregular shapes?

I usually use a mix of GPS, visual markers, and a little tweaking by hand to keep things on point especially since fields can be weird shapes.

Totally normal! The issue is the GPS trying to force a straight line where one doesn't belong.
try to look for your system's Field Boundary or Smart Path guidance mode. Use that mode to simply follow the irregular field boundary precisely, and let the system use that boundary as the master line for all subsequent passes. It's the only way to get a clean finish on the edges!

A solid tip, using Field Boundary or Smart Path is the best way to ensure those edges stay neat.
