Maybe on a winch comp it may make a slight difference..........but if the winch is on freespool then pulling ti out is not a great hardship.

I used to use baling twine, but it kept melting, I tried barbed wire but it hurt my wee handies, So now I use a cable tie or two....

joking aside
is indeed always better to ensure the winch cable is secured , if u have rope on the front whilst doing 40-50 mph the thought is it coming loose doesnt bear thinking about
plus u know someone will just come along and nick the rope anyway

I had an old Hilux that had the steering drawbar held together with baker twine for a few days - reasonable amount of play in the steering

Pointless. UV and constant exposure to water and ****e will rot that rope and make it useless in no time....

Nah, looks like a hemp rope,...........the local druggies will have tried to smoke it way before it rots.
