Drag your moose!!!
Lots of threads over the years as to what the best quad is, quad capabilities, manufacturer vs manufacturer, big vs small, best tires for quads ect ect ect
Well, moose season isn't that far away. Unfortunately not a whole lot of tags to go around this year but plenty of time to prep.
So this thread is for all the guys who are proud of your machines, show us what they can do, big or small.... post a video of your machine in action this moose season. Give some details and lets see the video roll. I imagine there could be something learned by all, new techniques, maybe put faces with names, perhaps help guys determine what machine might best suit their particular needs.
I'm personally looking forward to seeing some quads in hunting action.
Later this week I'll post some video from past moose hunts to get things started.

we throw our moose on a Stone boat. ratchet strap the moose on tight. Can-am Outlander 800 pulls the moose threw the bush. Kawasaki Brute force 700 with 27" mudzillas hooked to the front of Can-am for a bit of help going up really steep hills or across swamp.
These are usually the two biggest bikes at camp so we use them. Seem to throw the most mud too. But I'm sure a couple 500cc quads could do the same if they had good drivers.
No videos as I'm either running the chainsaw at the front making a path or clearing the way.

Tie the head up on the back rack. Run your winch cable underneath your bike and through a clevis where the trailer ball would go. Run a rope around the moose behind the shoulder. Pull taught with the winch cable and away you go. My little 300 Kawi Bayou has no problems pulling a moose this way.

To be honest I have never though of recording the way out. Perhaps some of the hunt.
How is it one careless cigarette can cause a forest fire, but it takes a whole box of matches to light a campfire?

One word ...... Argo. I made a steel rack that slips into the hitch receiver. We put the head on the rack, chain it down and drive off. I've pulled 14 or so, with no problems. The best thing about the Argo, is I can cross rivers, small lakes, and swamps to get at the moose.
Pulling moose out of winter cuts is made easy with the Argo.
