I am glad to see someone use that method. I have never tried it but it sounds fair if you take the time to do it right.
Now what i meant about the jerk method. I have a drag for use in the garden. it is nothing but 2 three foot metal pipes with a foot of chain between them. I was using it with the four wheeler in fresh dirt. it overloaded and it would not pull it. now I either had to leave it where it was, dig out the dirt, or try and jerk it out to the side. Thats what I did. It wasn't but about 10 feet to the side and I had a 4" wide strap on it. It took about 4 jerks but I finally got it off to the side. Thats where I unhooked the strap and it is still there today. Sorry if I angered anyone with my idea. I meant for it to be used on smaller stuff, not 4 ton rocks! Besides where I live the only rocks are on the county roads.
Last year we sold a 8000 gallon propane tank to a guy for use as a culvert. Now we had a 876 Versatile thats good for about 250 horses. After watching a man pull it foward about 5 times, he decides to give up and let me try. I hook onto the front but pull it sideways and broke it aloose. 1 try was all it took and I sent that guy fuming mad. We had put a heavy tarp on the cable so it would not richochet back. We did everything we could to be safe and nobody got hurt.
I hope I redeemed myself with you all. I have gotten some good advise here and always enjoy reading it. It feels bad when they are talking about you though.

Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
