• Excitement is in the air as your deer is down
  and you have completed a successful hunt. You'll
  be able to fill your freezer and provide for your
  family. The only problem is you need to get your
  deer from point A, the field, to point B, your
  vehicle.

• If you're thinking of dragging it, we're just
  gonna stop you right there. Trust us we're doing
  you a favor. You don't want to destroy the animal
  and expose your hard-earned meat to dirt and mud.
  There are better ways to do it that won't destroy
  your back. Don't get us wrong, there are times
  where it makes sense, such as downhill snow, but
  you won't always have these conditions to work
  with. So what's the alternative to transporting
  your deer?

Use a deer cart

• There are light-weight packable deer carts
  that are easily transported. With the use of a
  single wheel, carry your gear through thick
  foliage and steep terrain with ease. Once you
  hunted your deer, use the cart to safely and
  effectively transport your trophy to your vehicle
  without straining your back or knees.

• There are two common methods for using a
  packable deer cart that has a carrier. The
  primary method is for carrying smaller trophies
  up to 150 pounds. This method typically requires
  some form of an adapter that will install into
  the frame. This adapter will allow you to flip
  the deer carrier upside down and place it over
  the animal. After strapping the trophy to the
  frame, you'll be able to flip the deer cart right
  side up.

• The second method of using a deer cart is for
  carrying larger animals that weigh 150 pounds.
  This method allows for entire larger animals such
  as elk or moose to be taken out of the
  backcountry. Big game can be deboned or
  quartered. The quarters of meat can be either
  tied directly onto the frame, on the top or sides
  or, placed in saddlebags or panniers.

• Either transport method works well but is
  determined by your trophy's size you are removing
  from the backcountry. No matter how you use your
  packable light-weight deer cart, you'll be able
  to remove your big game and arrive at your truck
  without having destroyed or exposed your meat and
  hide. Dragging a deer does have its place on a
  snow-covered downhill trail, but otherwise, a
  cart is a great go-to option.
