I was pushing a downed tree with my grapple when it snapped back. The only thing that save me was it was stopped by the steering wheel

Lesson learned

They can really get away from you in a hurry. Every time I don't treat them with respect, they about knock me off the tractor, or puncture some 1k item

Glad you're ok. It sure makes me appreciate the mid mounted ROPS on my tractor even more.
