Any Hunters?

I also have a game hoist that I used to hang up larger game such as the buck in the photo above. This hitch hoist works awesome for lots of stuff, depending on the situation.

I'm not a hunter. I think I'm the only one in my family who is not. I have went a few times. It is just not my thing. That looks like a beautiful place to go hunting or just camping. That is a nice looking buck on your hitch haul. My brother-in-law is an avid hunter and taxidermist. He always has some serious deer mounts to do after the season ends. Good luck out there, to you and all the other hunters on here .

I went hunting with a friend once and ten minutes into the hunt he feel and broke his site. So much for that trip!

I went with my dad a few times as a pre - teen / teenager but not since. Its not my thing. Too early and too cold. I do love to go out waste ammo though. I almost hit a buck at about 75mph 30 minutes ago. Lets just say it was VERY close to my Altima's left front.

First of all, nice photos. Not that I am suprised after seeing your Camp Commander stuff.

I am very much a hunter. That was the primary purpose for buying my XK. I needed a hunting vehicle that would take the beating, and hold car seats.

Deer season is over here in CA. Spent two weeks hunting as normal, got a very nice 2X3 muley/blacktail mix. Do you use your Commander to skin the deer? This year I put a new twist on it and used the winch for pulling instead of just moving the Jeep. Worked very well.

It is quail season now. The country I go quail hunting in is very rugged and beats the you know what out of most vehicles. I broke the frame cross member on my S-10 twice wheeling in this area. The XK is a god send. It doesnt even blink when going through the worst of the areas. Having a Jeep instead of truck is night and day.

I am just getting internet installed at the house (which means I can post photos/etc. - blocked from doing that at work.) I will try and post some pics soon.

you and I are in the same boat for getting the XK. I need something that is my hunting truck when it needs to be, but a family car the rest of the time. I pick up just wouldnt fit that profile.

I have used vehicle for skining and have used a winch before too, but i usualy just use a knife anymore, it seems to go very quickly if the knife is sharp.

I have never hunted, which is odd with the amount of firepower at my disposal.

I think I should do it so I can find out first hand what it is all about; and learn how should I ever need to in the future. The problem is I don't like killing things. I have shot animals before - a bird with a .22 just to see if I could and a skunk with my .45 - that one was self-defense! I felt bad about killing either one, and don't like the thought of killing animals in general (though I would never tell someone else they shouldn't do it...), but I do LOVE meat.

Funny, I kept looking for my recent post and wondered what happened to it. Until I realized I posted on the "other" forum. Anyway, like your hitch haul and the area that you hunt in.
