I can't hand catch if I'm alone. I've tried it and it's very clumsy... for me anyway. If I'm with someone else, and if it's sandy or dusty on the ground, I'll opt for the hand catch.My Standard has 190 flights and 2,098,288' . Never any issues . Hand catch always but that's just from habit .
My P2V has hit so many times I can't remember . My fault except for 2 times .
I just like to fly it like I stole it .

Catch mine 99% of the time...Hoover it couple feet above me..walk up to unit...grasp land gear right hand..throttle off left hand...ps I wear safety glasses during the snatch and grab..ALWAYS!
I hope you were a gentleman and carried the young lady out into the scrub. That certainly isn't heel friendly terrain.
