Crawler Deer Cart

Hawk makes a deer cart that they call "The Crawler", due to it having tandem wheels allowing it to "crawl" over obstacles in the woods. I've watched a couple of videos on how it works and I like the tandem wheel design. (y)

I currently have a Muddy Pro deer cart and like the 20" tall hard rubber tires, for no concerns about flat tires. What I'm considering doing is making an axle and adding a second set of wheels to make it into a crawler. :sneaky:

Does anyone own one of the Hawk Crawler deer carts? How do you like it? :unsure:

Get a sled and be done with it. Sled outperforms any deer cart I’ve used or seen in use.
Ah.... A jet sled... I along with many others gotta agree with "J" , Once you use a sled you'll never look back.. So many uses and no moving parts to fail... I ordered one about 5 years ago and had it picked up at Cabela's by my friend before we headed to Illinois... He was like doubting it's value... I ended up not going out to Illinois, however he used it out there to get a deer out... Now every truck has one in it... Need I say more...

I have a Jet Sled and have used it, but only if the ground is wet or snow covered and loved it. (y)
Personally, I think it pulls harder across dirt fields and muddy fields than a wheeled cart.

I have a competitor to the Jet sled, beavertail, and I love it.

I've never used a wheeled cart but irregardless of the conditions it makes dragging deer to a 4 wheeler or side by side easy. Even over logs is study enough to lift deer up and over with. I listed my daughter's buck into my side by side by myself and it was not hard.

My kids also love it when we get enough snow over the "normal" sleds.

Got it and love it, need to put Slime in thr tires but it really does go over trees, across holes and bumps very well.

I put the setup in the ebike thread.

This setup is my complete turkey hunting gear, blind, 3 decs, chair, stakes. Hauled dead hogs and deer on it without tipping like my 2 wheeled cart.
