Charlie, as Denny put it, if you get a strange feeling, you are probably getting to that point you know somethings not right. I was pulling out a large white oak log one time with a 460 and chains on.

Yes weighting the front end helps, but remember when that weight comes around on you, it's another thing to contend with.
