"Hey Hardcast, what do you use that third knife for? It looks like something that an Isis terrorist would carry."


if you drop an elk, youll generally find hes inevitably not dropped under an ideal over hanging tree branch suitable for hoisting his very heavy carcass up,
for easy field dressing, this results in you having two choices, process his butt, on the ground or fabricate a tripod for your block and tackle,
some para cord


a GOOD QUALITY kukri ,
plus block and tackle
plus...some para cord, a couple dozen 2 gallon zip loc bags and a decent back-pack,
typical elk lodge pole country. rapidly allows any experienced elk hunter access too a tri pod to easily lift any elk, for cleaner meat processing.
I may be older and slower at 70, but , Ive learned how to make life a bit easier and get the meat out of some canyon in great condition over the decades

while $85 for an elk hoist, seems high priced ,
its a damn bargain and youll understand why ,
once its used a few times
