Congrats on your harvest!! Looks like you will have some good eating.
You can take the man out of the woods but you can't take the woods out of the man.

With a bad right shoulder I have to do things much different than most folks. This takes more time.
I have a hand crank boat winch attached to a piece of deck board. I attach the deck board (and winch) to the trunk of a tree and reel her in 150 feet at a time like a big fish. Then I pull the rope back out move the winch to the next tree and start over. When I get the deer to the nearest logging road I use a
come along to get the deer into my truck.
I have to use tools every inch of the way.
I am impressed with your tenacity regarding your deer retrieval methods. Necessity is indeed the mother of invention.

Way to go bstout! By the way, I like the "earn a buck" idea.
I'd rather wear out than rust out.

Congrat's ! .... nice looking opening day doe !
Yep , the work starts after the shot for sure ! We have had some long hauls over the years !
Just curious ... How long from shot , to recovery , to back at home for processing ?

Can't wait for my turn.
