I've never been pulled out by mine.... just winches...

but I have yanked some buried trucks out with it.... I yanked a blazer on 35's and he had no reverse... he was buried past the doors... he was impressed with the Deuce... all smiles... it came down to the weight advantage honestly... but I left some deep trenches where I was...

I pulled an F-350 4x4 out up at Hungry Valley with the yellow tow straps. They don't have the snap that these do.

I generally don't believe in using the snap feature of the recovery straps... I usually just move until I feel them get tight and then give it some throttle....

MuddyDawg, Oh hell yeah we are taking it off road. Nothing too much though as I am sort of new to the off roading. Until I get comfortable we will mainly just hit the beaches here in Oregon, and some of the Kiddy hills.

It is "snatch strap" even though trap might be even more fun.
