Deer cart

[Andy seatrout]

Andy I've extracted with all methods over the years, until 12 months ago my favoured method if a quad couldn't get to a red deer was my cart, and it worked well in most situations, but then I bought my £1k winch (after a nightmare extraction), all I can say is in the photo you look young, I am in my 60's, wait until you get there, you can buy my winch off me, hunt smart as you get older

I’m not that young, the one photo in the snow is the ‘stock photo posed by a model’ I’m 50 so I’ll save up for the winch!

Hi, does that fold away for transportation?

Yes it does, handle over and the tail….. if you look it up on eBay there’s a photo with it folder

Whatever is chosen ,wide tyres as an addition would benefit any extraction .

Exactly, with tracks not wheels but we've been around this circle before

I can reliably report that the Bushwear Deer Cart is not only a doddle to extract a fallow buck with (although you need to supply your own straps), but can comfortably extract two fallow does at the same time!!

Should have bought this years ago.

My winch being used for what it was originally designed for, tree's!
There was a huge blockage on a channel on our local river impeding the Salmon and Sea Trout running.
A few hours later and it was cleared, tons of downed timber removed.

I wish someone would import these, I tries to get the guys at Bushcraft to do it as they have an account with the manufacturer.

That’s the one I got, it’s very good but I needed to add some pins to lock up the handle more effectively

@1894 How are you getting on?

I am VERY impressed. Fits in the estate boot folded up. Have managed a 65kg fallow buck over 1km and 100m ascent. Probably my limit. 2x sub 30 kg does or single prickets are very manageable.
Had thought I would use for Reds but a big stag and mud/slope would be too hard by myself.

In the wetter months when I cannot get a pickup in reds I quad bike out, fallow I backpack out. Depends on the terrain if it’s flat I’d imagine a cart does well on fallow but just adds too much extra weight on hills.

Large sac truck with big fat wheels is what I use to move big boar out of a location where even quads get stuck for the winter. Lie it down flat and heavy beast can be pushed up the handle in a tray. Then I use two small ratchet straps to secure everything. Even with a heavy boar loaded it can be lifted and pulled one handed on flat ground.

On rough ground it’s a two handed job but 100% better than dragging.

I have even used it on ground where you would be using your hands to climb. By having a 15m hand winch that you would use to pull a boat onto a trailer you can literally wind the thing from tree to tree if needed.

Last bonus is that once at the truck you can use it as a ramp to push the tray up into the back of the vehicle.

Winch removed in the photo as I used it to move logs recently.
