Almost destroyed the Super701. Sketchy landing in a storm with terrible wind gusts and visibility!

A summer thunderstorm in Tennessee quickly turned a very nice sunset flight into a landing nightmare. Crazy wind gusts on final approach with very poor visibility through the windshield made for a very close call of becoming a total disaster. Thanks to a lot of luck and a little bit of pilot skill, both myself and the airplane made it home safely. ***Update: Check out this video to see this runway with my standard approach, T/O, & landings and some aerial views.    • Shortest regularly used runway in the...   I know that I will catch a lot of judgement and kickback on this one and I probably deserve it. "Would have, should have, could have" done things differently. I had plenty of fuel, so I should have flown to another local airport, tied down, and waited it out. My one-way, uphill, no go-around grass strip with trees and obstacles all the way around, plus the weather and poor visibility made this a very sketchy landing. Luckily, it is was caught on camera for you all to see, judge, and hopefully learn something from. I am very thankful for the robustness and the nosewheel design of the Zenith airplanes! I'm not sure this could have turned out the as well in a tailwheel STOL airplane in the terrible gusts and tailwind that was experienced in this video!
