If I thought I would ever use this chain for hauling anything again I
would get a couple "clevis" grab hooks and make a real tow chain out

A sling hook rather than a grab hook would be better for the end that
goes around the log.

Allows the chain loop to tighten around the log.

The standard method is "sling" on one end, "grab" on the other.
