I have a heck on loan from a buddy on here - coupled with a plasterers bath & bungee fixed cover it’s a cracking solution to keep blood mud & ticks out the car & is easier to load fallow into than lifting them in the boot. The cover is tight once fixed & keeps water, mud & exhaust from contaminating the carcasses.Home - Heck-Pack

I use a liner in mine to stop contamination and keep everthing clean and dry. Works great if I dont want carcases in the new wagon and for when the Disco 2 is off the road!

As I'd love to sell mine at an inflated price 
Piece of cake, takes seconds once it is adjusted to fit the hitch - lift it on & there’s a bar you push through 90 degrees & it locks on. It has hole for a padlock so it can’t be removed.
Also you can adjust it so to the ball size and tension it up so it really don’t move at all. Multi purpose too. Use mine for other carrying jobs as well.

Here is the jobbie. After Brexit I would not hold your breath on getting one delivered though. Ask my missus to be nice as she is coming over to Dover in mid January as a tenant has left and she has to sort out the house.

I also have had a Heck-Pack for several years, very easy to use and more convenient than a trailer for small numbers of deer. It will hold two fallow comfortably. There are a fallow doe and follower under the cover in the picture. Local Environmental Health happy to ok it for transporting carcasses.

BUZZ RACK Buzzpro P10 multi-purpose tow ball platform no. BRMP01
A great alternative to a trailer, takes a maximum load of 75kg (tow bar nose weight dependent).It's ideal if you have a small boot or just want to keep the interior of your car clean. It's got a multitude of uses, including transporting rubbish and garden waste, building materials, flat-pack...

I did find this which I thought look quite good. As a plumber I could get 2 hot water cylinders on this as well.
Looking at this picture makes me wonder how well it would fare if the extraction involved some serious off roading. I could see the frame being bent or filled with mud and crap. For level, easy ground I would imagine that they are ok.
I needed one to extract stags and multiple hinds from rough off-road areas using my 90 and ended up building one myself. Nothing I found commercially was strong enough in my opinion It's a heavy lift but I designed it to take 200kg with a DAF of 2 and still not overstress the main members.

I have a Westfalia detachable tow bar the A40V version on my Subaru Impreza, another unit reworked to put in but to have a 2 inch receiver hitch socket facing rearward would be a nice to have then it can be stepped up behind the car to remove the clearance problem. A project imo for the future.

These of racks are really popular with German hunters. Most seem to run Skoda Scouts / Yeti’s, VW Tiguan’s / Passats or Fiat Panda’s with winter or snow/ mud tyres on steel rims, with a rack on the tow bar. And in winter they often don’t bother gralloching at 3am in the dark, just load the boar the whole onto the rack and then drive home. Give the whole carcass a good wash first then gralloch and process.
