Just a quick question. A new, entirely unsuitable vehicle, has me looking for ways to transport a deer carcass within it (up to fallow buck size) in the boot without getting blood & ticks etc everywhere. Deer would have head and fore/four legs removed first. Was originally looking at the Trace Game Tub which looks like it will fit in the boot, just, but I don't really have the need to drag anything as such (now Ive said that I will though!). Have ordered a boot liner anyway to stop my lab wrecking it, then came across the Decathlon 100L Game Bag which looks ideal for roe, but does anyone use them for fallow? Just to be clear, it won't be used for carrying, just loading into the back of a Mk7 Golf! Many thanks...
 
Yes have one and used for fallow.

No in use photo, but remember getting this pricket in there to keep the flies off. Grab handles at each end make it easy for two man extraction. 👍

I haven’t tried to get a fallow in, but I think you’d. struggle. 3ft long and that’s a size 7,1/2 loafer.

Thank you. I was just looking at a North Face duffel bag I found in the cupboard (90L I believe) thinking, how the hell could that work! But Im always amazed at how smaller deer, roe etc, pack down. Maybe the same is true for fallow? Actually just googled and NF do a 150L one,,,but at £170 its a bit too nice for deer extraction.

Fold the back seats flat, wind the passenger seat fwd and I bet a 4x2 (that is feet ) plasterers bath and cover will fit.

Cheers for the link. Look just the job and have the advantage over the plasterers bath in that they have a lid. I terms of sturdiness, are they up to being lifted with deer carcass inside?

The p bath is 2ft across but remember a good Fallow buck is 50-60kg then the real ones are in the 70/80

Yes. I've had a hind in these lift it into the back of the car.

In fact I've had a stag in 1 too
