While deer hunting this weekend, I ran into to this cool old "No Vehicles Allowed" sign in an overgrown CRP field on some KDWPT land.

I suspect no vehicles have been that way in decades. smile

Anyways, I was able to tag a buck and luckily two of my sons (one human and one of my shepherds smile ) were in the area and showed up with a game cart like the cavalry to take over on getting him out of there.

Thank god for young men, German Shepherds, and game carts. laugh

Congrats on a Good Buck. Yes, game carts are nice. I sometimes hunt an area where no vehicles are allowed also. It is on the back side of a swamp. the only way to get to and from the stand is to walk about a quarter of a mile down some old rail road train tracks that have not been used in many years. The game cart sure comes in handy. but pulling it down a 1/4 mile of railroad ties makes for a bumpy trip.

Nice, game carts beat the heck out of a long drag for sure.

Congrats

Always been a drag or quarter it kind of guy, but this year changed my mind. I was hunting a large piece of public ground here in East TN, thought of it more of a scouting trip and didn’t bring my pack. Well, as luck would have it, killed a pretty big one far back in. After that drag out, I promptly bought a game cart, which my kids now use to ferry themselves around in. Hopefully it will get used for its intended purpose next year.

Congrats on a nice buck!

Congrats....he looks like he was carrying some extra weight....

Not sure how that cart would work on a mountain side hill here in Pa...combined with a downed tree or large branch in the path....

Nice buck!
Never thought I would get to the point in this game where I would call for help! When it comes to making a call or quit Deer hunting, well that is what cell phones are for!

Great implements on level ground. Had a buddy that did not want to do the backpacking deal anymore and hauled a cart into this ground. The next season when I climbed the hill, his cart was still there. No way can one sidehill in that terrain.

Yeah, man, that terrain is a little more "side-hilly" than I hunt. smile

This is about as wild and crazy as my hunting terrain is...to be fair though, I've twisted an ankle more then once on limestone. laugh

But if you've got a buck down in the Flint Hills, 1/2 to 2 miles back, that game cart makes a world of difference versus the ol' drag'n rope.

1911, my friend, that is a Cabela's Super Mag Hauler.

Man, it's hauled out a bunch of Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma bucks.

Unfortunately, Cabela's doesn't sell 'em anymore. But here is one similar, maybe the same cart branded differently, on Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/Leader-Accessories-Hauler-Hunting-Capacity/dp/B00LIHHBYC

Caught poacher wheeling a 8pt out in a wheelbarrow and his mom when she came back to pick him up. DA wouldn't press charges against his mom.
