Whatcha think of my new gamecart?

Postby Buglemaster » 09 06, 2012 •  [Post 1]

We just got back from a short laborday weekend scouting/ hunting foray.Loaded up the cart & took the trail back in approx 1.5 miles.The hunting was disapointing, but the cart was worth its weight in gold.I took in way more gear than I ever could have on my back. We probably only had it loaded with around 50# of gear, but it seems my "stuff" is way to bulky to get in my freighter pack.I'm pretty confident you could put half an elk (boned) on the cart & as long as you had a decent trail & not extreme up hill /down hill take it out nicely.I copied the design from another bowhunter here in Colo & if your interested, I would be happy to share the plans with you. I've only got about $50 in it, so you can build one without spending an arm & a leg. Now all I have to do is put a bull on the ground to really break it in! Wish me luck. We leave the 14th to close out the season.

The cart looks great. I like the large wheels. Will the engine hold up on a long haul? LOL

It would look a heck of alot better with a load of elk on it! What's the deal? You come all the way over to my country and don't even give me a jingle. Just in case, I have a 4-wheeler that would love to pack out another one this year. You are more than welcome to it if the need arises. Come on over if you get some spare time.
