for those of you with steel canopies that are catching things in the woods, you just need to add limb risers. I added FOPS and limb risers a few years ago. not sure how I ever got by without them. They are the diagonal bars running from the front of the tractor up to the FOPS. Limbs get pushed up and over as you drive into them.
The FOPS itself has expanded metal screen for a covering. I like the good visibility of what is going on overhead that the expanded metal screen gives. I don't really care that it lets snow and rain through, since I dress for that anyway. It is a bit of a bummer in the summer when I'm wearing a T-shirt and drive under a cedar tree and all the little crumbs drop down my back. I may change it to have the back half or 2/3 solid metal, and keep the front part as expanded metal for visibility above
