Claw

[sweept]

Anyone have any experience with the deer skinning claw from Cabela's.

sorry couldn't resist.........come on, who else thought this was the what he meant

Seriously, I haven't used one before but I really try to get the hides off within the first hour. I can do that since I hunt solo, so I usually pull that hide off with my hands. I would think it could work, but I wonder how much force that thing will handle.

Good one. I have read the reviews on the Cabela's HSOforum and they are pretty mixed. Was hoping to get some reviews from some fellow FM'ers.

dont know what it is we just make acut behind the neck pull enough hide down so you can get a baseball rolled up in the hide wrap a small rope or length of chain around the ball and hook to the winch on the four wheeler and zip all done.. if you dont have a four wheeler u can just pull with your vehicle..

I have seen that done with come alongs and coyote hides, never dawned on my to do that with a deer, that's awesome....I am assuming you make a slice on the legs then? Might have to try that for pops and giggles this year, to keep my wife's uncle in high spirits....

I have heard of that with a golf ball too, anything to get a rope around.
