That coon is still hot. Does it still work that good when cold?

Got one of you units last fall and it works great. Even big old boars are easy to skin with it. No more hard pulling by hand. Did 35 grinners with it and only ripped one.

Cold or hot it doesn't matter the winch has enough power to do it.

Thank you very much for such a excellent video

Nice job. How long did it take to reach this level of proficiency with the machine?

Knew the winch was strong enough but will the hide tear easier being the fat is cold?

Excellent video! Picked up another trick also. 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 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.
