By Erica Mueller Published: 2023-10-24T17:08:19+00:00 Updated: 2025-07-23T15:11:28+00:00 ![Featured image]() If you’re in the market for the best recovery rope you can buy you need to check out [this video]() featuring the Bubba Rope Recovery Gear set vs a regular tow strap. Publisher Tim Esterdahl demonstrates the Bubba Rope and shows how you can literally stop jerking people around. ## Still towing with chains, rope, or flat straps? They might get the job done, but these items are rarely ideal for towing and if you’ve used them before you know that actually connecting these materials to the vehicles requires knots or hooks, and overall they’re just clunky. In this video Esterdahl is going to show off some [Bubba Gear Recovery Gear Sets]() that he was given and show just how easy it is to tow with gear that’s made specifically for this purpose. ## Bubba Rope Recovery Gear is made in the U.S.A. These recovery gear kits are made with military grade rope and the connectors completely remove any need for hooks or special knots. All you have to do is make sure you’ve got the kit rated for what you want to tow, and Bubba Gear has multiple kits to choose from. ## Stop jerking people around. Literally. Watch [the video]() below and I think you’ll be impressed at the difference between pulling with a tow strap and pulling with one of these Bubba Gear Recovery Kits. [Which kit]() would you need for your towing adventures?
