Re: How do those winch-loaded shooters work?

I should have mentioned earlier that our dog gear release was only based on the supershifters. For the dogs we used lovejoy connectors found in the kit a few years back. The rest was improvised from what we had around. It was messy though, and I think a pneumatically actuated rachet might be a better way to go.
