No contridiction at all. My point was that you need to choke the strap, not simply throw it over a ball.

But obviously that's too much work for some of you all. I guess to you, it's easier and safer to lay down in some mud, get under an off camber Jeep, and wrap a chain around an axle.

To each his own :?

No shots, merely stating that if that is your method of recovery, and we are on the trail together at some point, your all by yourself. I would not be part of something like that. Sorry if you take offense to that.

thanks. Need to get it dirty more often but it's a PITA to find legal wheeling spots and even hidden discreet spots.
