A winch system 10 coupled to a processor energy source 12 having one or more processor driving rollers 14. The processor 12 provides energy to the winch system 10. Multiple driven winch drive rollers 32 are supported by the body 18. A horizontally-oriented winch drum 36 is attached to the body 18. A drum gear 38 in communication with the driven rollers 32 and the winch drum 38 transfers rotational energy about the vertical axis from the processor driving rollers 14 to rotational energy about the axis of rotation of the winch drum 38. Attached to the winch drum is a cable 40 having a proximal end 42 region and a distal end region that is detachably attachable to an object 46 to be retrieved by the winch system.
