A 183 pound hind quarter has got to be close to moose size. I've always figured a mature bull will have 80-100lb hind quarters, bone in. That's pretty incredible I would have to make two trips per hind quarter on an animal like that.

Are you guys weighing these quarters with bone in and hide on? Not sure why some one would pack all of that but I packed my 6 points boned out hind and then some and there aint no way I could pack more than 100lbs at a time, unless im way stronger than I thought. Id say the pack was closer to 90lb and the body size wasnt much different than stws bulls he posted.
It is quite possible that im much stronger than I thought though
