GON dial a trailing dog list.
I keep a 4 foot piece of mule tape under the elastic shell holder on my rifle. I break off a limb somewhere for a handle. I been known to run a cedar limb thru their nose to drag them with too.Probably not too many have this homemade deer drag.
What I know is 99% of you drive to where you hunt, the same day, plan on eating lunch and getting back to the same truck. All while, never going 1/2 mile from the truck? And smell like local BBQ before you hit the stand in the afternoon.
But, pack like you are on an AT Hike for 50 miles through the White mtns..
Ya never know when you might need that fire striking tool within sight of your truck!
Nothing lazy about that. I ride in but it may be miles of winding logging road from my truck. I carry enough to have water, light, fire starter etc. I can walk out if the ATV goes down, call for help, or worst case hunker down and wait for help. Don’t overload my pack, don’t want to carry extra weight but carry what I need.I keep extra stuff in my pack so i dont have to walk back to truck or camp....striking paper 2 ply and a GOOD flashlight....im lazy....
