Title: New deer cart
Post by: kennym on June 28, 2015, 11:55:00 AM
For my battered 3D target that is, much better than pulling up stakes and moving!    :biglaugh:  

Note the tow rope on front, tied up in case I decide to just mow around the target.   :cool:

Come the rut - I wonder how far that thing will skid when a buck tries to mount it    :)

Thats a great idea. Now you just need a pully system to also use it as a moving target.

The gouge in the neck is from a buck attack, he dismantled the whole target, only the legs were standing! May break his neck now! LOL

Already thought of another set of wheels and a longer pull rope. Wonder if my wife would mind pulling it around the yard??   :D

Good idea Kenny, I like it.  :thumbsup:   I'm sure your wife wouldn't mind pulling it around the yard for you any more than mine would.  :D

Thanks guys! Easy too, made wheels from 2 pcs of 1/2 cdx plywood and just put a couple washers between wheel and end of 2x4 with a 4" lag for the axle. Didn't figure the wife could pull it over 20 mph for the running shots.   :bigsmyl:
