"Skinner" Makes Small Game Easy To Handle MISCELLANEOUS EQUIPMENT Miscellaneous 23-5-13 "A few years ago, my son and I began squirrel hunting, which is real popular in Louisiana. Sometimes I found myself trying to skin and clean squirrels by myself. That's when I came up with this new invention," says Tom Lochbrunner about his new B&L Game Skinner.
The problem with skinning small game is finding a way to hold one end of the animal in place. Lochbrunner's invention consists of a set of spring-loaded jaws that clamp onto the back feet or head.
"It's so simple everyone wonders why they didn't think of it. It seems impossible but there's nothing on the market like it," says Lochbrunner.
Besides squirrels, you can use the skinner on rabbits, ducks, pheasants, grouse, or any other small game that needs to be skinned.
It mounts on a wall or tree at about shoulder height and consists of a flat piece of 3-in. wide, 10-ga. metal with three V-shaped notches. The center notch is almost twice as large as the outside two. The points between the three V's are bent outward. A narrow 1-in. wide strip of 3/16-in. thick bar pivots down across the three V's. It has a spring on one end that holds it down on the feet of whatever you're skinning.
You can either put the animal's rear feet into the V's and pull the skin down toward the head, or put the front feet and head into the V's and pull down toward the tail. The spring on the hold-down bar can be adjusted to fit as tight as you need for different-size game.
Sells for $20 plus $5 S&H.
