What about the gambrel, could choker style be used?

Thanks guys, to answer a few questions, It works great even on cold coyotes. Cold coons are just as easy as warm ones. Yes, I've done a few hundred coons on it but within 10 I had the complete hang of it. On the choker style gambrel it would work but the winch pulls hard so it best be heavy duty. I use a loop of 3/32 snare cable if a tendon breaks. That hooked knife has done 400+ critters this season and is still on side one of the first blade. It doesn't rip the hide. I weld 3 pieces of 1/2" rebar about 3" long to the grips. The winch is from harbor freight...

Here's the direct link to how its made...

I just noticed when the video comes up you can click "full screen" then maximize the window. It makes it alot bigger and easier to see just what I'm doing.

Yeah but you're kinda ugly and your mom dresses you funny. Close ups just make it worse.

Nice videos though \:\)

That's all I use Is cable slip nooses. I open 10 or so coon I place a cable loop on them before I hang them It's fast and very effient. I use a bigger loop and slide it up over the tail and as much skirt fur as I can, I attach the other end of the loop to a single hook on the mast and pull. I have never torn a hide.
