It also works really well for lifting the deer off the ground and swiveling around into the truck for those of you needing an easier way to load them. It has a pin, so you can swivel or use it in fixed position for cleaning. I haven't used it for lifting other heavy objects, but I'm sure it would work just dandy. Very handy piece of hunting equipment and hard to beat for only $90.

I made one of those. Mine will lift 2k easy as its much heavier built. The 1st one I made was similar to that one and it snapped at the base with an Antelope hanging on it. I redid it with 2" pipe and welded a support piece to the base area. Made it so I can have it at 12' tall or 7' with a removeable section. I hunt mostly alone and I can lift anything I need to....as long as I can get my trcuk to it otherwise its quarter & pack.

Did I make you cry......boooo hooo, life goes on.
