RE: Need Info!: Packing out a deer?
I bone out the deer in that situation, pack the meat into game bags, put the game bags in my Badlands 2200 pack, tie the cape/antlers to my pack and walk out.

I know in Texas they have an odd regulation that requires the bone to stay in the quarters.
A quartered carcass is: [*]not more than two forequarters, leg portion (down to the knee) attached to the shoulder blade;[*]two hindquarters (leg bones down to the hock must remain attached); and[*]two backstraps/trimmings from neck and rib cage (the boned-out neck and rib cage may be discarded). |

ORIGINAL: johnnybravoo77 It depends. One solution is to first gut the deer. Then tie the right front leg to the right rear leg with rope. Tie the left front leg to the left rear leg. Prop the deer up against something. Sit down and slip your right arm through the loop formed by the two right legs; slip your left arm through the loop formed bythe two left legs. Stand up and lift the deer like a backpack. This works if the deer is not too heavy. Where I hunt in Oklahoma gutted deer may weigh just 100 LBS or less, and this technique works. someone gonna pop ya! |

ORIGINAL: RenaissanceBiker I'm surprized that no one has mentioned those two wheeled deer carts. I have never used one, but it seems a lot easier than dragging. Just carry out your climber and rifle, then go back in with the cart. If I was going to go back into the WMA, I would look into getting one of those. |
