New Deer Dragging Tool - Is It Any Good?

[@LondonPestControl]

A proper back Harness that evenly distributes the weight across both shoulders is needed especially when you have a long drag as this will mess your lower back, you can see this in action on the video as the successful hunter is favoring his left shoulder, Its not the weight but how its distributed evenly, I drag out and often drag up hill 40-60 deer a year so consistency without injury is key

Thanks for bringing this up. The idea for The A.N.T. is to prevent rope burn, rolling ankles, and back pain from being hunched over. As soon as we can, we’ll gather feedback from chiropractors and verify that The A.N.T. is a safer solution than just manhandling a 200 lb buck!

@@theanttool just adding a harness will really help the product in my humble opinion, good luck

Try dragging through the brush and over big down trees I’d be more impressed than dragging it on a smooth trail. Thanks

Challenge accepted! Keep an eye out for an update where we'll try this with a real deer!

Get some Nordic walking poles if you're in open country. Not much good in the bush. They give you 4 points of contact and you can use your arms for extra drive when you hit an obstacle. Mine are carbon fibre and weigh next to nothing.

This would work better with a bear. They drag like a wet rag. Scoot the leaves with them unlike a deer.

Great suggestion! We'd love to see someone give it a try!

[@steveguse5802]

keeps the hide good anyway

[@theanttool]

That's one benefit!

That's not what Lucas said!
