If I don’t buy a Mule before hunting season, this is the “bed” space I’m working with and it’s over 4 feet high. No trailer hitch, so I’ll need some kind of drag bag for the deer, pigs will just get drug on the ground. [Linked Image]

Good luck on finding the Mules Pros in stock none of the dealers in the Houston area have any in stock. I also also told that Kawasaki was not taking any more orders at this time. Sucks because mine was stolen about 2 months ago and I need to replace it.

hahahaha
Man, I could sling em all over the place on a 20' old roping rope tied to the hitch on my cj5.
I got good enough that I could fly around the corner at the dump and jam on the brakes and it would tumble right into it. grin roflmao


High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

I use a Harrington 1/4 ton Chain Fall on my hitch mounted skinning pole. Works very good, doesn’t weigh much, stows in a really small space.

I got like, $40.00 in this. There's gotta be a place to mount the channel some where with the right sized U-bolt on your machine. [Linked Image]

I drag pigs, but want bucks on the rack. Just start his head on the opposite side, crank his head towards the mast and it's over. I can take this on and off with a wrench is about a minute.


An unethical shot is one you take, that you know you shouldn't.

I put a $100 2500lb winch from Harbor Freight on my old Toyota 4 runner, it would easily suck up a big pig onto the back of the truck.
It was an 87 gen 1 and I had removed the roof and had it mounted to the roll bar, worked awesome. We did all sort of stuff with that winch too..


I need to add one to my 95 and plan to this year

I made a little hand operated hoist that I just put in the opening at the corner of the bed on my pickup. I've loaded hundreds of hogs with it and deer as well. It gets the body high enough you can swing the rear legs up with no problem. Basically a one man operation....

Now it's here, works just as well. Tail gate comes off easily if need be. [Linked Image]

I guess you couldn't find a bigger box?
