Abstract
An apparatus for miming production tubing string into a wellbore without rotating the production tubing string is disclosed. The apparatus is a muleshoe guide assembly utilizing a short coil spring to tilt a lower muleshoe guide into alignment with a packer bore or liner top. When the guide encounters an obstruction in the wellbore, the short coil spring will compress causing a lug to be driven into an angled milled slot causing the lower muleshoe guide to tilt inward.
