On someone elses back

Check your state laws. Some have already addressed drones and hunting.

I've used drags like described in the first couple posts and also a two wheeled cart to get my deer out. But for the terrain you described I'd likely go with a sled like this.

I have used a rolled up plastic sheet about the same, but heavier. I wore several holes in it due to rocks an briers, etc. I don't see the above sled doing any better on such rough ground probably Ok on leaves/grass tho...

I hunt smaller areas and strips of timber. When I get a deer, will drag or load it on the 4 wheeler rack and homeward bound. A larger 2 wheels dump type yard cart would work too.

I hunt atop of bluffs. All I need do is get the critter to the ridge-top and start down. With the leaves and slope the animal generally beats me down.

Bone it where it its the ground and bring it out in a packframe. I wouldn't drag a deer 10 feet.

Here in Vermont we have to present the field dressed deer carcass to an official check station within 48 hours of a kill. Our whitetail bucks generally average 120 to 200 pounds or more. ATV's aren't allowed on state lands during hunting season so dragging is the option we have. I tie the front legs up over the antlers and then run a rope to a drag bar or connect to a commercial deer drag harness which goes across my chest. This eliminates a lot of the snags. Slow and steady or go out and get help. Often when there is snow I use a kids plastic sled.
