Default Attach a tree saver strap to both front bumper tow hook?

If I need someone to tow my JKU, would it be a good idea to attach a tree-saver strap to both front bumper tow hooks, so that the pressure can be shared and equalized between the two hooks? Then, the tow strap would be attached to the tree-saver strap using a soft shackle. Someone tell me if this is a good set-up or not.

According to the factory manual, yes- they recommend that you use both tow hooks in tandem.
