For the last 3 years I haven't drug a deer out of the woods even though I have shot 15. This method is great for the liberal doe tag states. I hunt way back in the woods at times where no 4 wheeler, truck, or tractor can get to.When I shoot a deer, I go back to my truck, leave my bow behind, and grab a backpack with a hoist, gambrel, rope, rubber gloves, and a trash bag. Where the deer lies I gut it, tie the hoist to a nearby tree with the rope, lift it, skin it, and bone it, put the meat in a trash bag, and place it in my backpack.

Here in IA they just enacted a law that we have to check a deer in by phone or computer before it can be processed for consumption
