RE: 3 days to the opener here.......am I ready
another thing that i carry with me is a piece of 1/2 pvc pipe about 8 to 10 inches with about 10 feet of rope tied to it. It stores easily because when it is not in use, you just wrap the rope around the pvc. I use this in case i have to drag a deer out of an area that i cannot get a vehichle or a 4 wheeler. Just tie the end of the rope to the deers antlers or neck and use the pvc as a handle. It's a lot easier on your back than bending down grabbing legs and taking little short steps. Hope this helps.
