RE: How do you drag your deer out?
Some of these were pretty funny.......
I grab em by the "horns"..... That'sjust theway I roll..... I'm notgoing touse a 4 wheeler or game cart.... Maybe one day when I am a little older though? I work hard to kill my deer and I am going to work hard getting them out, that's how I look at it.

I'm with Buckeye. I usually jog to my stand......do jumping jacks on stand......shoot them and sprint the blood trail. Once there.....I drag him back to the tree I was in......and lay out all my gear in a line and do suicides back and forth to my vehicle to put my gear up. I then drag my deer out while subconsciously humming the theme from "Rocky".....and I've been known to add weight to the deer to make it tougher.
Seriously.....if I can drive the 4 wheeler right up to the deer.....I'm gonna.

Since me and my buddy hunt a few miles from the trucks we ride camo bicycles close to our stands and walk the rest. When either of us kill one we field dress him and put it on the bike. The seat goes in the open cavity. Tie his head to the handle bars and legs to the frame and just push him out. Sounds a little weird, but it works.

I was self taught hunter thatdidn't come from a whole lot of money as a young man and this is how I learned to do it......Unlike when I was growing up I can afford a 4 wheeler, game carts etc etc now...... I will still drag them out by hand until the day I feel incapable of doing so safely.
Ask my buddy Frank. He shot his buck down at camp last year on the 30th.... He used the 4 wheeler to get it out. I shot mine on the 31st and we drug it out by hand...It was a honest to god mile drag as well. I enjoyed every moment of it...... Telling the story of the hunt and reminiscing back on the hunt you just had.... Don't get much better than that IMO

Scott I was just poking fun.
I drag mine, too. I DID drive the ATV to get that doe the other morning. I was exhausted by the time I found her....and I needed to get her butchered, quick.
No problem dragging....and I use my harness and the hooks on the side....and attach my tether rope to the deer's neck.....(unless the head has antlers).
