Looks like a sturdy Towing hitch, Im fairly new to this, but why not use a hole'd Draw Bar with a Ball on it to tow your Trailers ?

its cheaper and easier is i not ?

Are the items your towing that Heavy ?

I love the work and the sturdy nature of this, im just curious.

Go back and reread the post. There are attachments available for the 2" receiver, plus many folks build their own custom attachments that slide into the receiver for use with their tractor. I listed some in my post: boompole, subsoiler, middlebuster, & logskidder. Some people have built a pallet fork and even a platform type of carryall to haul firewood etc, that slides into the reese hitch. That's not the end all list of attachments that can be made to work with a handy hitch, there are others.

You can't do all that with the old drawbar style that has nothing more than a 2" ball bolted onto it. That is the advantage with a handy hitch! Now do you see why everybody should have one?
