It's even easier if you carry two ropes. Tie both ropes to the deer and throw them both over a tree limb. Pull deer up with your truck with one rope. Tie the second rope off to keep the deer hanging. Release the first rope from your truck and drive your truck right under the deer.  Your grandma can load a deer with this technique.

Dang I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem.
Friend, I wouldn't harm thee for all the world, but thou art standing where I am about to shoot.

 Prop your newly purchased plywood sheet against the truck bed and let the winch do the work.

Get a big ratchet strap or a couple of them for under $50. I find all kinds of uses for them and they help bigtime when doing just what you are talking about solo.

Don't put a lift on your truck... There are some great suggestions here...except for Bowtech. I need the "coolfactor" to make me look like a real deer hunter.

Release the first rope from your truck and drive your truck right under the deer. Your grandma can load a deer with this technique. My new method. Cheap,easy,and Grandma can do it. Now to get me another rope.... 
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

I am surprised nobody mentioned that they use a come-along. No need for a tree with one of these.
