A cheap submarine might have been an advantage with 70-90 yd ruts 4ft deep. It is indeed a chore but when its your part of your livelyhood you do what you can. I've carried 2 bucks half a mile uphill in the evenong, gralloched and hung 2 more up, and gone back next morning for them.
Truck free stalking?

This works pretty well to me. If I cannot reach by car the anshutz I park it as near as possible and drag the quarry with a cheap chinese sled..then I can lift it on the trailer with a minimal effort as you can see in the video. Legal to drive with it at home as soon as you have a triling hook fitted on the car and plate and ligts are not obscurated. No ticks keds around in the veicle. click the link for the video

I used a Skoda Octavia scout for stalking, fishing, shooting and ferrying the dogs about for a number of years and it coped well on all but the roughest of tracks where ground clearance became an issue. Last year I bought my first pick up and I wish I had done it years ago. I can keep the cab nice and clean and not stinking of dogs and anything dead that may have been in the back. I have built a set of drawers with false floor and a divider so I can separate dogs from any kit and or game or can separate the dogs from each other if need be. Would I drive a pick as an everyday vehicle if it was all I had? probably not as even the best ones are quite crude when it comes to ride quality not to mention slow as f**k and get a bit thirsty if you try and go quick.
Not all grounds are suited to vehicles anyway...

Both of my permissions are at the bottom of hills. I've a sled and I'm thinking of a Sika sack
I recognise that field
That's a nifty bit of kit and one you've clearly learnt how best to effortlessly load. Well done!

That should be frozen ground. No excuse
It was a very apologetic call to the landowner, and then I had to return to fill in the ground.
Got two fallow for my troubles though

What website is that?
Temu i think from what the ad says
Blimey! I’m impressed - my wife is less so!
Heckpack or pickup is definitely the way to go if funds allow. My pal had a discovery 2 a couple of seasons ago that regularly brought home a handful of fallow including some stinky bucks each weekend. The discovery developed a very sweet scent by mid December, discovery carpets really hold the blood.
