RE: Stupid question .....but I don`t know
I have hunted elk in the mountains and used packhorses to haul out meat,but have been hunting elk on a friends ranch for the last five years.We use a front end loader to haul animals back to the yard and then hang them from the baleforks to skin them.Myself and my partner killed two big bull moose this year on a lakeshore and were able to drive the truck to within 10' of one bull and 100' of the other.Normally we use quads to haul moose out.
