Knew the winch was strong enough but will the hide tear easier being the fat is cold? Do not go where the path may lead,go instead where there is no path,and leave a trail. Ralph Emerson

Using the utility knife with the hook blades, I use these on beaver but have never thought of using them on coons making the cut across the body. Thanks The statistics say 1 of every 4 persons are suffering from mental illness. Think of your 3 best friends, if they're OK then it's you!

Rich P. trapper Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 273 Mukwonago Wi.	The trick is to fold the leg skin or twist it before clamping it. That way it is real hard to tear even when cold. This year was my first year using it and I never tore one.
