A deer cart can open up a lot of chances when you think about it.
If you’ve ever dragged big game a good distance, you know. Sleds are great for short, downhill distances, but if you have rough terrain and steep inclines ahead of you, a deer cart will make your life much easier.
Game carriers have floated around the outdoor market for a long time, but not everyone has been entirely sold on the idea. For those who are less familiar but still interested, we’ll give you a quick rundown.
Some things to look for in deer carts are weight capacity, solid rubber wheels, buckle straps, and sturdy steel frames. Heavy-duty steel deer carts are the most popular, almost entirely based on the high quality.
And the cool thing is you don’t have to search far and wide. Amazon has a wide selection of deer carts for your next hunting trip. HEre’s a good selection to get you started.
