Abstract:

A carrier for transporting large game is provided having a bed formed from a smooth semi-circular cross-sectional shaped polymeric material which is mounted on a wheeled frame. A reversible handle allows the bed to be easily loaded and a rail is positioned beneath the bed for cooperatively engaging rail guides affixed to a vehicle support. The game carrier can be loaded, for example, in the woods and can then be pulled manually to a vehicle parking site. The wheels of the carrier can be removed and the carrier then urged along guides attached to the vehicle support which is retained by conventional vehicle trailer hitch apparatus. Locking pins maintain the carrier on the vehicle support, thus allowing a single hunter to easily transport and load heavy game without undue effort or inconvenience.
