Pretty sure I wouldn't want to.
Can't we all just get along?

I think that guys were just way tougher back then... We like to think that we're tough these days but we don't have anything on those oldtimers.
I hunt, therefore I am.... I fish, therefore I lie.

Having all the weight on one side gives me a backache just looking at it.

:yeah:   Exactly what I was thinking. I know I couldn't carry one that way. It might be better to have two, one for each side, and balance the load.   :o

in new zealand allot of the outfitters make backpacks out of them like rasbo was saying split the front feet then tuck the fronts threw a cut on the back legs and instant back pack easy on the goats and rams and smaller game not as easy on a stag :chuckle:

Never mind how he's carrying that doe.  Look at the buck. :yike:  At can't see his right side antler but his left side sure is nice.

What do you think the guy by the fire is telling the guy with the doe?
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

When I was in highschool I carried a little basket rack buck this way about a mile to my truck.  Only because I was by myself and late for Thanksgiving at my grandparents.  I wouldn't reccommend it.  :bdid:
