It's pretty flat except for the river running through it. I should be able to drag or throw him over a shoulder no sweat. At least 21 years ago it was no sweat. LOLIf it’s heavily trafficked public land then, going in deeper than others go may help. Acorn trees, water, trails, scrapes. Hopefully you find the big buck that’s smarter than those “hunt near the truck” fellas. Do you have a cart or a harness for getting him out?
