Got bored and found a possible use for an old stroller we had sitting around. Used a camo tailgate net for the basket. Hit it with some rattle can camo. Should at least be able to haul gear and deer in and out until it gets thick.

I have the exact same buggy, currently used to cart the littleman around, but nicely done. Its actually a fairly rugged piece of equipment considering the cost and intended use.

I like the idea! You may want to test it weighted on the surface (grass, gravel, etc) you plan to use on. I have one similar and I don't know if it would take the weight of a full size buck on any bit of rough terrain. We have had our 30lb 3 yr old in it and on a dirt trail and with any elevation or roots it was just OK. Multiply that weight out by 2-4+ times and it might be in trouble. Good DIY-ing and ingenuity! Keep us posted on how it works.

I'll push my wife around this evening, she's about 120lbs . Im just gonna use it to hold my pack and gear which is light anyway ( I am a Saddle Hunter) on open paths or fields, the places I hunt I usually travel .25-.5 miles on open ground or logging road before I enter the woods. Will save me some calories. I know I drug a 125lb dressed 10pt last year half a mile in the swamp and then 500 yards across corn stubble field... It was not fun, coulda skipped my morning workout. I'm also gonna hunt a military base this year during gun season that has lots of open access.

I agree. Dragging sucks. I had a doe a couple years ago that I almost left in a standing bean field cause she kept getting hung up and would cause me to fall down. Just kidding, I would never leave a deer to rot, but it was very tempting. I packed a deer out last year with a buddy and now (if it's legal) it is my go to method.
 
Good Job. I made one like that FOR A RANGE CART TO HAUL GUNS, GEAR TO THE RANGE. wORKS GREAT..

Would to see the look on your wife's face when you tell her, "get in the cart Iwant to push you around"! I know what my wife would say!

“ Hey I upgraded the old stroller, hop in.” Yeah, she didn’t go for it lol.. for whatever reason, she wasn’t as excited. At least my 4yo thinks it’s cool.
