We use both, have the roll up large sleds and one and two wheeled carts. I made the single wheel ones like a wheel barrow frame (aluminum square tubing) for use on trails and such. Just picked up a two wheel cart earlier this week. Grabbed my kids and we just used it and the sleds to pack in elk quarters this morning. Just a bit of snow out there so at times the cart was easier other times the sleds. Either way when you're on foot and have heavy loads of meat they are handy.

I use a jogging stroller. They are expensive if you buy them new, but $5 to $40 so far at yard sales and flea markets. They are relatively light but will carry over 200 pounds. The large wheels can go over rough terrain and are a breeze on any road or open trail. Their weak area is going around a steep side slope because the tricycle wheel arrangement tends to tip over. In any area you can use one they are surprisingly tough.

I roll my gear and rifle in on a gated service road to 100 yards from stand location and stash it . Drag deer downhill to the road, load in the stroller, roll the deer to the truck. They are good for rolling in trapping gear and hauling out the catch too.

Once you try one of these you'll never go back to anything else.

I got a deer cart from Cabela's about 20 years ago .It saves a lot of work .It really is at it best if you have someone that is at either end .We use it often to haul treestands and other gear to our hunting spots .It is a back saver and a time saver

I use a cheap walmart plastic kids sled. I don't have much to haul around though, just 2-3 five gallon buckets. I only use it on ice and snow. It does make it easier to bring kids along. I just put a longer rope on and hook myself up like a sled dog.

Game cart. Built from 2 lawnmower handles, all thread, conduit, high boy mower wheels and some webbing. Will go up and over most logs and what not in the woods. I leave it under my stand so I have it when I need it.

I made a cart a couple of years ago. Makes it easier to get them out of the woods.
