Shock and fall has always worked..... never used one of those style pullers.. but the pickle fork style ones..... i can throw those almost 60 yards :-)  Two tools required, gravity and a BFH!!!! lol  got a bunch of pics yesterday but Napa gave us the wrong rod end so it's going to be a few days before she can put it back together  I'm real proud of her.
