I built a V-plow a couple winters ago for the team to clear work paths. I can keep work paths open between the house and barn now very easily. It clears a lot of snow very quickly, although there is not too much control. It can get a little squirrely, and once there is an established snow bank it's hard to change the path. But you can't beat it for quickly opening up a path.
Work photos are below. Sorry if I'm a little hazy about some of the details.
The plow under construction. I think those are 2x10's. I have a small gait that I want to get through, so this plow is not particularly large. It cuts a path around 6' wide. The angle is 90 degrees. In discussion with others I learned that a "pointier" design might possibly make the plow track better.
