How do you get the 20st Deer home that you have just shot half a mile into the woods? wtf
Theres probably a simple answer to this but I cant think of it :D

BTW I've never shot a Deer, in the woods or otherwise.

Drag it, however it is easier to have something to put it on and drive out with.

I thought dragging it would be too obvious and assumed there may be a very clever way of doing it :oops:
Best to not go Deer shooting without a vehical then!

You lose a lot of the weight from it in the gralloch.
Then drag/carry, depending on terrain.

New Zealand technique is to only take out the haunches if in mountainous terrain.
If a few are shot for the meat trade they're helicoptered out.

No mechanical machine has bettered the Gearran pony for retrieving deer.
