Talking with Jim Perry, Managing Partner of Trac-Grabber, LLC today he said, “ You can see why we are so happy to release this new product which will hopefully be a part of nearly every hunter’s gear. At the end of the day, I know I will get to where I need to be in order to put deer in the freezer. It’s comforting to know that between my small vehicle snow shovel and the Trac-Grabbers I have the tools necessary to handle these kinds of situations. I am almost giddy about my late season hunts because I know I will get the chance to test these out in some serious snow. The Trac-Grabbers did their job – they dug in, kicked mud out, and lifted the truck out of the hole I was in. The tires blew right back, throwing mud out of the way. I gained about two feet forward and shifted into reverse and the truck just dug in. I put the truck in four-wheel drive and proceeded forward, turning the tires straight on. I took out the camera, filmed a bit about the Trac-Grabbers, put them on the tires and climbed back in the truck. I really did bury the truck and it was seriously stuck with water up well over three-quarters of the way up my left tires. I didn’t realize that the location I chose to bury my truck was a whole lot deeper than I had realized. Now truthfully I wanted to get stuck just to see if I could get myself free using the Trac-Grabbers. I got the chance to test them this week in a real world situation after burying my truck in a mud hole. Wanting to be prepared, I did a little research and reached out to the guys at Trac-Grabber and asked them to send out a set for review. This year, I planned to head out to the same area to hunt. This time I was able to dig my way out on my own with good gloves and my trusty Gerber. The next morning, I buried the truck again on another part of the farm. Ultimately, I had to rely on the assistance of the good-natured rancher whose property I was hunting to pull us out. I didn’t have a shovel with me so I dug the truck out as best as I could with a Gerber knife. I felt the truck begin to bog down in the snow and I buried it. The road was in a depression and snow had drifted over it. I had three kids in the car with me and we were hunting for mule deer in November. Two years ago, I buried my truck out on a farm in western Nebraska. After testing them this week, I am sold on how well they work. Trac-Grabbers is a system that allows you to get your vehicle free from mud, sand and snow.
