Last night, coming home from eating out… I spotted a big ole fresh roadkill coon… being in my wife’s vehicle, I never even uttered a word about stopping, but I knew it would still be there this morning…. Something in the back of my head kept telling me just leave it, but I couldn’t do it… so I make the 10 mile round trip and gather my coon.. he’s a nice one.. biggest this year! I clamp his foot in my skinning machine.. make All the necessary cuts and on the first pull… his leg comes detached… switch legs and start the second pull.. it also comes detached.. so now I have a rope tied around the base of the tail, finally get the legs skint.. clamp the hide in my vice grips and gently hit the winch button.. yep.. the backbone gives way and down it comes.. along with all the intestines… he was full of acorns if any of you were wondering… finally get him tied back up.. winch bottoms out.. re tied.. had to adjust the vice grips and tear a hole in him.. finally get him skint , fleshed and on a board.. I would not doubt it took me 45 minutes from start to finish… maybe he will bring $4!!!
