    Well you seem to think nobody can drag a deer out on their own.

I've dragged many deer out of the woods, a few monster deer are not of average size and weight and sure don't drag as easy as an average deer. Read Fenelons post #42, he speaks truth about what it's like to deal with a monster buck on your own.

    I didn't realize that we had soo many tough , macho guys on this forum, guy's that just drag all these deer out long distances all by themselves.
    Just ask around and you would be surprised at the number of these macho tough guys that wind up with hernias and heart attacks trying to prove and show off how tough they are .

    I am not just talking " hearsay " as a firefighter, first responder , I have been to calls where I / we actually saw what happened as we usually arrived first at the scene under a mutual aid agreement with the townships that surrounded our city.

    Never said I can still do it it anymore I'm 50 now. But when I was young I could yes lift and drag a lot of weight. I still keep somewhat fit cutting trees in the bush, but when I was very young I worked in the bush and use to lobster fish tossing 100 pound traps like they were nothing and I'm not a big guy. My captain held a thousand pound trawl while I got untangle saving my life and yeah he could drag a 200 pound deer like it was filled with helium.

    I think most of us could drag a really big deer when we were in our teens and twenties. I know I have dragged big deer for several miles as I liked hunting away from people. It would take me up to 6 hours, but you shot it you had to get it out. Now I have a hard time dragging a good deer 20yds, but I'm also 40 years older. I wouldn't even thing to hunt the areas I used to, because I couldn't get the quad in if I shot something.

    A quick Google search on lobster trap weight is 45-60lbs..lmao The world record dead lift that was just achieved in the past year or so was just barely over 1000lbs by a 400lb beast considered the world's strongest man, and of course your boss can hold that much weight no problem..lmfao. I guess that explains how you can drag a monster buck no problem a km or 2....bahahaha

    One way to settle this.

    When I shoot my big buck(in the next month n a half) you guys can come drag it out for me. I know I couldn't drag a big buck, by myself, Threw the hills and ravines I hunt in. Took 3 of us last week almost an hour to drag this buck just to the bike that was maybe 200 yards away. We are all farmers/construction guys under 40 lol
