Why did a semi driver think it was a good idea to go on a beach in the first place? Kinda not smart.

And that's why you don't use the ball. Would have been better off taking the receiver out and sliding the hitch pin through the looped end of the ****** rope. Might be a good time to pick up a receiver with a D ring or a solid hook.

EDIT:
I know this applies to lighter Jeeps, but it's a good reference point for anyone that needs to perform any recovery at all:
