1. Truck
2. 4-Wheeler
3. 2 wheel cart
4. Man power

Whatever the situation calls for!

Deer Sleigher or Dead Sled, works well on dry leaves or dirt/gravel trails.

I have also found that a plastic sled works as well as anything short of a 4 wheeler.

I skin, quarter, and debone throw it in the backpack and hike out. Sometimes I do not debone, it just depends on how much time I have and how far I have to hike.

I'm kind of confused as to why you drag the deer out of the woods. Is it illegal to leave the remains in the woods where you live? Is it what other people door you were taught to do, so thats what you do? Not trying to start an argument but it takes me about 45 minutes to cape and block my deer out. I then load it all up in my pack and carry it out. What little of the remains that are left behind, are gone in a few day's, with some happy scavengers running around.
It is not illegal to leave remains behind in any of the states I have hunted. It is however illegal to do anything to the carcass except field dress it so quartering and cutting the head or antlers off is very illegal, at least back east it is.

drag them to the logging road, then either the 4 wheeler or truck.

on other farms we drag em to a field, then drive up to em in there with the truck.
