I keep 50' of rope and 2 double wheeled pullies to pull a deer up into a tree . I have not done it yet but if I get a deer way back in the brush I will never drag one out again unless it is close, like 1/4 mile. I will skin it ,debone and put it in my boundary waters back pack.
I have boned them out by getting on the downhill side of a small tree.
Start skinning a leg the it up on that tree. The hill is your friend.
You can stand on the down hill side, and not have to bend over very far.
Even though only the leg is elevated. A loop that tightens in the leg makes
it easy. Do the legs, flop it on the belly, skin down the sides and take the straps. Or, work under a blow down.
Only takes an hour or less to have ruined, boned out, meat in a backpack.
Hell of a deal if you consider how long, and how much effort to get a deer out.
Then, to skin it. Then bone it.
