I use a large capstan boat winch with rope bolted to the side of the garage and a rafter in the garage with pulleys. Speaking of pulleys, we were hanging three deer at the cottage and the guys were using a single roller pulley off the rafter and struggling. I’m no mechanical engineer, but I taught the guys that using two multiple roller pulleys makes lifting a deer way easier. I dropped a 12 point way back and hung him high off a tree limb to quarter him with the two multiple roller sailing pulleys and 50’ of rope that I keep in my pack. Look at any industrial crane and they always use a pulley on the hook end, never a single line pull.
Used a snatch block with a truck winch.
