I have a 600 and want to get a plow for it.  My driveway is about 300 ft long but it's gravel so I was originally thinking I'd just have it sit a little off the ground when I plowed.  However when I'm looking at plow attachments, I'm seeing they have skid feet on a lot of them.  Do all of them have that?  I'm just wondering if I won't be able to plow this way after all?  Thanks.

You still can. They will just leave small marks where they slide over the gravel. Get one with the largest feet or pads possible. Some also enlarge them a little too. Count on catching a little gravel no matter what but in the spring the plow and some skill can help you put it back on the road.

Thanks.  Can you recommend a good plow for the 600?

I can't but I'm sure someone here can.

I'm not going to be a lot of help and it's going to sound like a plug for a business but it's not.  I just bought this one based on reviews and while I was waiting on a response for a different one.  I am not affiliated with them or even know anyone that is nor do I know anyone that has used a Black Boar product.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0753GZX4X/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Black Boar has a large assortment of accessories for ATVs and they've all got great reviews.  I picked up the snowplow and a disc harrow.  My plan is to try out the disc harrow to turn our garden before the snow hits and the snowplow for the rest of the winter.


This is the one I was waiting on a response from:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B083345NT7?pf_rd_r=R8JNRCC9QCXTV88S5YF8&pf_rd_p=edaba0ee-c2fe-4124-9f5d-b31d6b1bfbee
..and they did verify that their product will attach to a CForce 600

Question, did you ever get the 
Kaufew Plow Blade Universal Kit Steel Adjustable 48" Complete Universal Kit for your ATV?
I HAVE A CFORCE 600 2up with a skid plate on it already so I'll be trying to put it on, any tips appreciated.
