deer cart vs. deadsled

[wildchild04]

I was wondering what is the best way to drag your deer out? Should I get a game cart, dead sled, or other? I mostly hunt grassland, with a few thicket patches (usually able to avoid). Sometime in the woods.

bubba its called a gym membership. maybe if you spend some time lifting some weights instead of shopping on ebay you could pull your deer out.

You should stop shooting those baby deer then you would know that you need a deer cart. I HATE people like you! and your condescending remarks! [:'(]

If I ever need something to take deer out I'll probably just bodge something together. I've got an idea to just make something out of a couple bike forks and front wheels with some metal bars or 2x4s holding them together.

If you hunt when snow is on the ground then a sleigh will be easier. I have used crazy carpets toplastic sleighs nothing fancy but they work well. I had to drag out a 300 + mule deer myself last week over a mile of up and down with 6-8" snow, even with a sleigh it was anything but a picnic and I ain't a small fella either[8D]!

If you hunt where snow is rare a cart be a better solution.

Also for loading deer into your truck bed I built an aid a number of years ago when guiding that works slick as snot and cost peanuts. 2 x 4 @6' then 2x2's every 12"(cut at 18" long) and screwed them on like a ladder. I then tie on the rack(or head)and rope around to the rear legs to secure the deer onto the ladder(we'll call it). Pick up the front and place on the tail gate then move around to the rear pick it up and slide the deer & ladder into your truck...done. I have loaded 300lbs deer byself with it thatpreviously would have been a long ordeal. I use it all the time as it takes the strain out of loading a deer, as no worries about the shoulder or legs getting hooked and worse bent over which can give you back troubles.

We don't get a lot of snow down in this end of the state , so the few times it does I use a cheap flat bottomed kid's sled . The rest of the time I either drag with an ATV or 18 hp lawn tractor . I'd like to buy a deer cart someday for when I'm not hunting at home , I could always rig it with small skis if it snowed .
