Getting your deer home

[Borngeechee]

After you've harvested your deer, how do you get it home. Who transports theirs by car and who has a truck?

[Elmo]

I drove a Camry before and stuffed the deer in garbage bags and into the trunk. Even though I drive a compact SUV now, I'm thinking of quartering it on the field this year and putting it into a plastic tub in the trunk.

Real men drive trucks...<<grin>>....

However, if you are a girly man and don't own a truck, throw the critter in the trunk.

Do us and yourself a favor and don't tie it on the outside of the vehicle..

Mine goes in a truck. Usually gutted only but sometimes quartered and in a cooler.

Even though I drive a truck, I put mine on the trailer with the 4 wheeler.  Toneau cover on the truck so I put my gear in the back under cover.

I haul mine in a utility trailer . I either have the ATV , a sled or wheel barrow to get it to the trailer .

Since I only have a car right now, I saw legs off and stuff the deer in a body bag, heavy duty ones off ebay works the best and you can just wash then reuse it.

Well then there's that too lol.

 

In all seriousness though I don't think I know any men that drive a car.

Ive done the car thing, it works. Ive done the SUV thing, works a little better, and now I do the truck thing, works the best honestly. Trailers work great too.

In the bed of the truck. or the back of the suv. Just don't be like this guy.

I drive a mustang lol but want a jeep wrangler bad. I wonder if it'll fit in my trunk.

I've stuffed a few deer in a trunk. Nothin wrong with it. Now I have a trailer hitch cargo rack on my JEEP. Works pretty good. I wrap the deer in a tarp first to keep road crud and exhaust fumes off of it.

I'm friends with enough Brooklyn Italians and Russians to become good at stuffing carcasses into a car's trunk.

Thankfully, I can process my deer right at camp. By the time it's transported, it's packaged in freezer bags, wrapped in freezer paper, and stacked in a cooler! Some have even been known to be stuffed into jars too!

Years ago we transported the deer from camp to Long Island. Got dirty looks even the whole family including preteen children giving me the bird!! This was on rt 17 not the Island. Had a guy make a shape with his hand like a gun and pretended to shoot my brother and I on the GWB. It all wasn't worth it. We ended up finding a meat processor at my camp and leave the deer behind. My neighbor will pick them up and store them until I come back up. It's a good excuse to get in a late season hunt. lol

[HOUNDS77]

Throw it on the 4 wheeler and head to the garage.

[thphm]

For many years we would carry them on the roof of Chevy. blazers at times up to 4 in one trip.

Now that I hunt just my own property I just put them in the bucket of my JD and take it down to my block and tackle and let it hang for a day or two. weather permitting.

I typically prop mine up in the passenger seat to make it look like he/she is riding shotgun. Back of the truck is where it really goes.

Since I have a carpeted bed sissy truck that I don't want to dirty, I throw my deer in Phade's truck. I enjoy the benefit of a clean truck and Phade can pretend that he actually killed a deer. Symbiotic relationship at its finest.

Back of the truck.

 

I remember,back in the day, when most people only drove cars. During deer season you would see all kinds of deer strapped to the hoods and roofs of cars. PETA would love that  LOL!!!
