I also hunt on my own place.
I have a designated buzzard dining area.
I just drag unwanted buzzard bacon to it.

If you are gonna eat 'em, 1860.colt has great solution:
@ your place, throw cooler in truck bed.
Cut up hog. Throw meat in cooler.

Around here, between the coyotes and buzzards, even big pigs disappear in a day or two.

This is my favorite retriever.
If in rough area or need to crash through Forest there is a Bobcat skid steer

With a grapple instead of a bucket.

Easy Peazy.

Just throw them in the tractor bucket.

Loaded up four that I shot tonight.

Great idea! And great pics. Looks like a successful night!

Hopefully you can see enough in the top pic to see how I did mine. It goes to the corner of the bed, that helps swing the pigs into the center of the bed while loading. The hitch type swing the animal into the corner of the bed. I have loaded a 314 lb boar and several other 250-290 lb pigs with it. Used it 2 days ago to load up the batch of pigs in the middle pic, the big sow in that one weighed 286, and her sister 228. Bottom pic is the 314 lb boar I (barely) loaded with it. The picture is actually him hanging from the chain hoist in my shop.

Drug this one out yesterday, easiest method I've come up with:

Amen. I do the same. Cable around their nose and my ball hitch on atv and off they go to be coyote/turkey buzzard bait!

My dad has one of these and it is pretty damn handy. It breaks down and you can store it in the toolbox of in the cab when you’re not using it. I’ve lifted generators with it and it swivels them very easily so a deer or big hog are nothing for it.

Watched some guys load a elk whole in the back of a truck using carabiners and climbing rope. A carabiner in the tie downs, one near the cab the other near the tailgate. Rope through both like a block and tackle and slid it up a board to the truck bed.
Maybe a come along for your truck and a board or a block and tackle.
