Default how to move killed hog (no 4 wheeler)

I am looking for ideas for something to move hogs after they are shot in order to transport them back to the truck.Right now I am not in the position to buy a nice four wheeler to do the task.

Draging a 200+ hog for very far is a pain in the butt I recently found out.the place I will be hunting will be 1 1/2 miles to 3 miles away from the truck. There are some pathways interwoven through out that I use to get back and fourth to the genreal areas where I want to hunt.

I was thinking of some kind of cart with bycicle type wheels that I could pull. Light weight with tall tires to make it easy to pull. has any one done this kind of thing. I know I sound cheap, but there are times when you eithor do it cheap or cannot do it at all.

I would rather not quarter the animal in the field and make trips back and fourth and cannot afford a four wheeler right now, so I thought this seemed feasable. I can weld so mabey a light weight framed cart with a plywood bottem, single axle, with alarge bike tire on each end. Tell me what you think. No laughing please...o.k. laugh!

thanks
