Anyone ever try this?
 
I was just given a golf hand cart. I'm thinking that with a couple of bungee cords I'll be able to get my climbing stand and all of my gear in and out of the woods without wearing out my back. I want to see if I can attach it to my harness so that I can just pull it behind me while leaving my hands free.

I have never tried it. However, I have known people that hunt public land that hike a long ways back in who use one and it seems to work pretty well for them. I would say it is always worth a shot, if you don't try it you will never know if it will work for you or not.

Just how much gear do you take in the woods? When I read the first sentence I thought you were going to use the cart to get your deer out......not take stuff in........I must be thinking of something else[&:]

I'm still out of work on disability after having back surgery, they replaced two disks and fused three vertabrae. My days of hiking in with a stand strapped to my back or dragging a deer out are over. I'm just trying to stay in the game, just wait 'till you guys get old.

Ohhhh, I gotcha now. Makes sense and yeah I think it would work. Whatever you got to do to stay in the game.

Good luck!

I was going to post that a P&Y has been crossing by the 15th green but you guys don't know me that well and I didn't want to get off on the wrong foot.

There's plenty of time for getting off on the wrong foot later.

Thank you Jeff, I feel better now. My feeling is no longer hurt. Lucky for me my wife only allows me to have just one. :)

I was going to mention that after I made the wheel-barrow remark, but I felt guilty after he mentioned his back situation. That is a great idea, in fact I just started using one myself last year. It helps big time if you have a long way to go on afairly even trail, dirt road, ect. I got mine at Cabela's for around $100. Money very well spent!

You're making fun of me and you use a cart yourself, I think somebody owes this Florida boy a Pennsylvania bow hunting trip.

Worth a shot. Let us kmow how it works. Sounds like it might work but what about the racket? My brother and I bike in where atv's can't with a converted kids trailer. It's a killer, but gets it done.

I'm hoping that with some foam padding it should be pretty quiet.

Too sick to work... but not too sick to walk into the woods, climb a tree, and draw a bow.

I had a bunch of those days when I was in school. And I suspect if the the ducks show up strong and the weather gets right I'll have a bunch more this fall!

I've used a dolly before to cart all my duck decoys and related junk into and out of walk-in spots. I'm thinking I may be a light-weight deer cart. I'm 25, healthy and able, but I'm also lazy and don't feel like carrying something if I can just drag it on wheels behind me.

No i'm not out walking in the woods, i'm just happy if I can get off a couple of arrows here and there. I'm just thinking ahead and hopefully I'll be able to get out this fall.

That wasn't an attack at you centaur. Everybody knows full good and well that you aren't playing possum. At least I'm sure of it, and I meant it all in good friendly fun.... internet is so hard to be sarcastic on sometimes because you can't see someones face or smile or hear the jest in their voice. I guess I need to use these things more ---> :D[&:]:):D;)[:@][:'(]

Yes, but I use the cart for bringing out my deer, not bringing in my gear.;):D:D:D

Come on now Andy don't be a softy, first rule of bashing is to never say your sorry, I can take it. Hell, Jeff's not letting up.

All in good fun Michael. Laughter is good medicine my friend. I believe in that whole heartedly!:D:D:DDamn, I didn't even say anything about the disability people following you through the woods.;):D:D

All kidding aside, I purposely don't push myself too hard because I'm sure that at some point there'll be someone with a camera trying to "catch" me. I could probably walk behind my self propelled lawn mower for half an hour at a shot and then go in and ice my back, but I'm not ready for eight hour days yet. The photo's sure wouldn't look good though.
