They look to be pretty strong.
Most of the time for me the only choice is to pull through and continue on. Also I’ve seen enough winch cables break with the type of winching we have to do down here in the clay. For me a tiger tail makes sense.I also like the idea of a winch a lot better.
You have to think that if you get stuck do you want to have to be pulled through the mess or pulled out of it?
Most people once stuck just want to get out of it and turn around. But then there are the others that want to get pulled out and continue on. Hoping that they don't have to drive back through the mess where they got stuck at in the first place.
