    Do you use a hitch clamp

    I have a EAZ recurve6 WDH pulling a Rockwood Roo 233s. Ther is some definite play when I put the hitch in the receiver. It hangs a little low. I was thinking of using a hitch clamp to tighten it all. Is this a good idea or does it create stress on the hitch receiver when towing?
