Get rid of the pins if you buy one. I lost mine too. Put cotter pins in mine and never had a problem. A little top heavy. Good cart for the money though. I've had one for about 7 years and no problems. The cabelas cart is better balanced and more stable. My buddy has had his for about 10 years and we've drug countless deer and duck decoys with it. Its well worth the money. That being said if money is tight $49 is hard to beat. Either one is much better than dragging.

I made my own using 1" conduit and a motor cycle tire.  I have taken out a whole elk at one time, although it works better making 2 trips.  If you are interested email me for instructions.

Thanks for all the ideas and imput, guys.  Some really good ideas out there!

I would probably get a Cabelas Super Mag due to all the positive things I've heard; but I want one that will fold flat and not fill up the back of my truck.  The Ameristep Grizzly will fold flat.

I'd appreciate any more comments or suggestions, Pro or Con.

Thanks to all, Paul

Oops, don't know how I did that.

Are you talking about the pins that hold the wheels on?

Paul, the pins that hold the wheels on catch on twigs and brush, flip open and then you lose them. I had to put the wire end of a bungee cord through mine so I could roll it out. I never take the wheels off anyway.

Paul,
   The model is an Ameristep Non Typical. I got it from Bass Pro or Cabalas.

The Versacart is darn good.  Very stable because of the angled wheels and V-shaped trough to center the load.  Only negative is it doesn't fold flat.  I keep it strapped to the roof of the shell on the truck during hunting season.  My daughter could drag her own deer out as a teenager.

Worth a look.

Do yourself a favor and call Rogers Sporting Goods in Liberty and buy the big one.  Its under 100 bucks and you can haul 3 deer at a time on it by yourself until you come to a big hill lol.  It has the big tires that is a must. It doesnt fold down is the only drawback. Kill enough deer and youll never fold it down anyway!!  Ive had mine going on 12 years now.

I've got this one...   web page

Don't know much about it but I think its made by Big Game

Momma bout for me a couple Christams back and it's done it's job... Hoever I had to replace one of the thumb loose knobs as it fell off somewhere while walking back to my deer... I replaced two of them on one end with the nuts with the "nylock" from the hardware store...

Works well, it's balanced and when i am on the flat roads, I just cinch the waist belt and balance the cart with my hands... Actually it has done well packing in lots of lime, fertilizer, and such to a lil food plot I put down in a nasty bottom...
Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.

I have the "cabelas" $99 cart, it has plastic wheels that I thought would break the first time I used it(they didn't). I have hauled out at least 10 deer(Florida deer) on it and a couple of hogs, I used it yesterday afternoon on a deer and have taken it on several out of state hunts, it folds up nicely and is compact. If you haul heavy weights over rough terain you may want to convert to steel wheels

Only problem with Nontypical/Ameristep is. I think it's made more for southern deer. I bought one and tried to use it, it was like a one pound burger on a WhiteCastle bun!
