Awesome, I've been looking for info like this for awhile. Are those the holders you can get at Wal-Mart? And did you have to make any modifications?

That's cool.

Bought them at Bass Pro in St Charles. No mods at all they work great.

Thanks, I'll be out that way Sunday. I've got a quad, but I won't use it for hunting. The property I lease, is not big enough where I need it.

Sharkey,
That's a pretty awesome looking cart. I'd like to have something like that myself. Real cool.

Awesome bike/trailer combo Sharkey! A man after my own heart.

This post reminds me of a project I had going for a short time last year.

Have any of you Summit treestand owners figured out a way to modify the stand so that it becomes the deer cart? I envision adding a set of wheels to either side of the stand and a hitch for the bike. You could bungee your bow, backpack, and eventually your deer to the stand.

It sure would be nice to ride across the 7 mile state game land road near me where NOONE likes to walk to. The deer back there are unmolested and ripe!

On the binocular note, I use those fancy binocular straps that they sell to alleviate nech ache and they work great. I have a big goony pair of binos that I use (cause I can't afford to buy a nice small set) and they stay well out of the way when I'm shooting. I've tried them on the 3D course many times.

That's a nice cart akaSharkey.....maybe I should concentrate my efforts of attaching the hitch and wheels to a similar bed like yours.

About your binos.... I use the chest strap. It's made from elastic webbing and keeps the binos right in front. I wasn't too sure about it when I first started using it- thought it was another gadget. But this gadget really works. Since your binos are always right next to your body it avoids that big swing when you stand up. I know Eagle Optics sells them but probably so will Cabelas and Bass Pro. Cool bike set up.

I have also thought about using my bike this year. It can make my half mile trip faster, maybe even a little quieter and it won't leave near as much scent on the ground!!
