Absolutely! Way more convenient. Just carry the 5' snare portion with you as opposed to a snare/extension combo. I just put the loop from the snare through the wolf swivel and pull the snare through the loop. I caught a coyote with the barrel swivel snare that I made at the snaring workshop and then what? I had top replace the whole thing.
I use a longer extension because some of the trees that I anchor to are large in circumference and probably use +2' of extension. It then becomes a 5' extension. Something to think about I guess......extension length when anchoring on the ground vs in a tree.
