Oh, it quit twice...with this buck of course. First, when I was off loading to gut him. I was so mad I went to beating on it with a shovel and whatdayaknow, it went to working. Quit again today when my back was killing me from filling feeders for two days and messing with this deer. Beat on it again. Went to working again. This method is only gonna last so long. I'd upgrade to a decent winch in a heartbeat, but I can't get the mounting bolts to break loose and I don't think I can get a sawzall in anywhere. Quite the dilemma. 'Might have to get a guy to come out with a hot wrench. Another problem from China.
