Yeah , Tirfor I have is 5 Ton ... the Gibbs really saves time when pulling several stems same day , if it's just one or two heavy pulls I'll often just hitch the hook to the rope as running out of cable isn't generally a problem , more often used with the small and medium pullers ... agree on...
Tirfor is the big dog but have a couple of others as well , small and medium size hand winches ... when needed the Tirfor is always worth the effort to set up. Tend to use Gibbs Ascender from the hook to the the pull line , quick and easy to take out the sag and make the most of cable length ...
