thought it would break first time, pleasantly surprised when I used it to pull 100ft of cotton while deer were pulling anything a 4000lb tractor could pull, lost footing, so i went back and sat on it a couple of times with 10ft of slack, never broke the line, im impressed a different eyelet ring could have been used but am happy with it, don't think the cord is the same size would be stronger and if it were a bolt wouldn't weigh enough to cause play damage after 50 years of steel wire tensionβ¦
