Receiver mounted game hoist

[Hogmauler]

What are you doing buying them when you used to build nice ones?

I got old and couldn’t build cheaper than I could buy em. I made a few of em and mine were a lot lighter than most today.

I have been wondering about the Everlast with the electric winch?

[cashcropper]

Ive got a Foreverlast that has a small hand crank winch on it that ive been using for years. It works great

For a 4 wheeler, or a vehicle without a trailer hitch, a solo hunter can load a deer using a ground based contraption called an L E Vator that comes in a box you assemble from the parts inside. There are some You Tube videos that demonstrate it. I put mine together before Christmas, but still waiting for a chance to use it.

Sambo, did you ever get a winch?

Dale, I was at that Bonanza(4 or 5) auction where you had that receiver hitch. It was a hoot watching you auction it off. A tad bit of adult beverages were involved. And yes... the beer holder was a topic of discussion.

Thanx for the link ... had a picture of my son's axis that I hadn't seen in a while. A hoist that Ol_thumper made for me.

well... he was front and center as well. A good time was had by all.

I bought one from Scheels. It’s a 400lb version & has been flawless. I ordered it & assembled it.

I bought one of these, took it out of the box, but have never used if anyone is interested in it. Houston area pickup. It weighs a bunch, so shipping wouldn’t be an option.

I think we sold Clint's wife Diane a double bull for about a grand. Mitch Krivo was bidding her up, and while that was my 1st time auctioneering, it was not my 1st live auction...so I may have taken a couple phantom bids to push it some more. Sorry Clint, but not really.😂

Tink bought that hoist for about 800 (IF he payed), so I couldn't fake it much. That makes it the only thing I ever built, that I hope BROKE...😡

How much? I’ll be in Houston in a couple weeks.

If you can find one of those old-school monarch hoists that were being made around 1999, they were really great. I had one for many years but it got lost in the brush (long story.)
I bought one of those HME brand ones that Amazon sells and I didn’t care for it. It was way too flimsy for our purposes. But we need one to load deer over 200 lbs on an almost daily basis during deer season. I bought an Outback hoist at the beginning of last season and I love it. It’s very heavy duty and so far has withstood all kinds of abuse.

My only complaint is that is that is a little longer than necessary and I know they designed it that way so you can get large animals completely off the ground but it doesn’t lay down flat in a short bed truck.

I am still using my monarch! These were built well.
