Shock springs definitely help when an animal is toe caught. In the right circumstances they are good insurance just like an extra swivel is.

I used them for two years. I found for me, not worth the cost of the set up and extra bedding issues. I did not find I lost any less of toe caught coyotes with them. I did find a short chain and three swivels was very effective at reducing losing toe caught animals.

Praise the Lord and Pass the ammunition.
