An animal hoisting and skinning apparatus and method that facilitates skinning and processing of large game animals such as deer, as well as smaller furbearing animals, while the animal can be lifted either by the hind legs or the head. The hoisting and skinning apparatus, self-contained and not dependent on a tree or vehicle, has a stationary base with a winch attached at the ground and a crown at the top supported by multiple legs. A winch cable from the winch is passed through a pulley at the crown and back to the ground where an animal is attached and lifted. The disclosed hide grabbing devices are attached to loosened hide, secured to the base, and the carcass is pulled from the hide.
A customizable multiple adjustment and multiple position seating apparatus or chair with independently adjustable front and rear seat height or elevation and front to rear seat slope; adjustable seat length or distance from the front of the seat to the rise of the backrest; and 180 pivoting/reclining backrest. Height of the front of the seat is adjustable from flat near the ground to armrest elevation. The rear of the seat, independent from front adjustments, is adjustable from near ground level to just below armrest level. Independent adjustability allows the seat to be positioned at multiple elevations and incline angles. Numerous backrest recline angle settings are obtainable throughout the 180 pivotability as well as numerous seat lengths. The backrest pivots to a forward position to become a handle for wheelbarrow-like mobility and the apparatus can be further rotated vertically and rested on the backend for a smaller storage profile.
