GroundHog Connections started in 2004. It exists to provide its customers with the highest quality wildlife farming implement made. As the name implies, GroundHog Connections is the best place anywhere to buy the GroundHog by Tufline.

As you probably already know by now, the GroundHog by Tufline is a disc plow for ATV’s. It is lightweight, easy to transport, maneuverable, easy to store, very durable, and maintenance free. You can even plow in reverse. This ATV disc plow is designed to be compact and easy to use. It really lives up to the demanding expectations of outdoorsmen, landscaping contractors, gardeners, and farmers.

Keith Frachiseur, the GroundHog’s inventor, isn’t about flash. He is about Faith, family, his country and loving the outdoors. Keith also loves to solve problems. Problems like how to put in a food plot in the backcountry where the “big uns” are. Keith got his bent toward problem solving from his Dad, Papa Dewey. Papa Dewey had a garden. He couldn’t afford a tractor, and the old tiller beat him nearly to death. This was a problem so he went about trying to solve it. Papa Dewey made a plow to pull-behind his lawn mower. It didn’t work very well. He said it was, “Like grabbing a rooster by the tail-feathers and dragging him backwards.” Why? Not enough down pressure, which is another way to say weight. Keith was intrigued by Papa Dewey’s original pull-behind. He got it from him and he and his boys, Zack and Derek tried to make it work with their 3-wheeler ATV. One of the boys would drive and Keith would hold on to their shoulders and stand on the plow. As you can imagine there was copious bloodletting. There had to be a better way. Well, one thing led to another and another led to the GroundHog. Keith quit his highfalutin corporate job, perfected Papa Dewey’s idea and enlisted his own family and friends to make a dream come true. An idea that started out in the country backyard garden spot of Keith’s boyhood home is now a reality: The GroundHog by Tufline.

Once the idea began to take shape he needed a company to make the GroundHog for him. Now there are a lot of companies that manufacture farm implements. Keith didn’t want just any company. He wanted a company that shared his values of hard work and American pride. That company, Monroe-Tufline, is a family owned business. They’ve been making farming equipment since 1958. Their plant is in Columbus, Mississippi. Tufline, as the company is commonly known, is the perfect match. It is a company run by a family. It is run as a family, for the families that work there and the customers they serve. Tufline’s motto is Well Built, Performance-Driven Implements, and that is what the GroundHog is.
