How to load a 300lb pig by yourself.
« on: July 06, 2016, 02:00:00 PM »
There was another post about how to load up a kill by yourself and I wanted to share with all what I have been using. I bought the hoist/lift from Harbour Freight for around 75.00 on sale and I really like it. I wanted mainly to be able to hang and gut/clean before I take home. I also installed a RV water pump in my tool box with a new (never used) boat gas tank that holds 6 gallons of water, so I can also clean/wash the animal. Take a look. I shot this monster the other day and I had zero problems loading it up. Enjoy.

Never loaded pigs, but have put tons of elk into pick up beds.  Any more I skin and quarter them before they ever go in the truck.

Thanks Kip, Its my first 300lb er. I really like the water set up. It comes in handy in so many ways.

Shed, do u mean my bow set up? I will have to look for pics. But Im shooting a bob lee 60@28 with a full length 340 shaft tipped with a 200 grain grizzly, 125 grain bh adapter and 100 grain brass insert. About 725 grains total arrow weight.

Congrats on your hog, It sounds like your hoist/water set up is pretty slick.

Sorry I was referring to your hoist and watering set up. I should have specified. Dang that's a heavy arrow. I bet that Bob Lee spits them arrows down range in a hurry. Plus we wanna see so of your,Bob Lee pics also.
