I experimented with a trailer and tried the snatch block idea. It actually worked pretty good with the  9 and 10 foot logs and the small 3000 lb capacity trailer I was working with.



 

I pull at an 90-ish angle using the lower pulley on my JP501 winch once in a while. Not at all a general practice. Last resort type of thing only. You just have to be reasonable about what you pull and keep an eye on what is happening. The top pulley is a definite no-no on my rig though.
