A few years ago I also walked. Then heel spurs and old age made that difficult. I bought a Kawasaki 650 Brute Force. Bigger then I needed but the price was right. Since then I have used it to deer hunt. I ride it to an area I want to hunt and park it. I haul the deer out on it-sometimes over a mile. Deer do not seem to be afraid of the ATV, they are used to tractors. I think I prefer an ATV over a side by side. They are fun to ride and will go most anywhere. They are cheaper and easier to haul on a small trailer. I can use the small trailer behind the ATV when I get it to the farm. I would like fuel injection, which mine does not have. I could not hunt without one.
