It's a landscape tree cart.  We used it on the job for moving large trees and boulders for landscaping projects.  This one has 1100 lb. capacity.  I was able to load the buck and haul him out without help.  Works great as long as there aren't too many downed trees.  If you get the load balanced down low, there's very little weight on the handle bars.  By far the best game cart I've ever used.  I see they now have them painted orange.  Maybe other hunters are catching on.

I recommend the carts with the rounded cradle lift.  You drop the buck's ass in the bottom, and lash him down with his belly up.  If an old dooger like me can wheel a buck out, anybody can!   :chuckle:
