Using Small Car For Hunting

I once drove from Whitecourt to Mission with a whitetail in the trunk of an 87 Nissan Sentra. Fuel pump broke but it was carbureted so we punched a hole in the hood and rigged up a water bottle as a gravity feed fuel tank.

I had a Sentra sedan. I put the field-dressed deer sitting up in the front passenger seat with the seat belt on. Antlerless, of course, and not a big one. It wasn't easy to get it sitting up but worth it to do it once.
 
I’ve crammed blacktails into my buddies Honda Civic hatch back a few times, also thrown them on the roof before, crammed a big Mulie in the back of my ex’s matrix,had a friend shoot a spike bull elk and crammed it into a Pontiac firefly.... came to work on Monday and his car stunk so bad. Using what you got is what you gotta do, love hearing these stories

My Jetta had the craptastic-est paint job! Looked like a licorice allsort, layers of black paint and grey primer, likely went through the factory paint line about 4 or 5 times. But it flaked off where the sun shone on the door panels, and over the engine area of the hood, making it THE rolling moose decoy!

I actually shot my one moose, within 50 yards of that car, too. Poor dumb, love-struck dude! LOL!
 
I took a bull moose home in the back seat of a 72 Datsun 510...........legs sticking out both rolled down windows.
 
47 posts and only one pic....SAD! I would have thought if you were gonna stuff a beastie into a civic you'd be crying with laughter over how ridiculous it looked!

A buddy who was truckless for years used to go to a mattress store and get a queen sized plastic bag for his deer. Once, a manager was in the back of the store looking for a plastic bag for the same purpose for his hunting car at the same time my buddy was.

It is. Gallen is a more upscale Albert County resident that's all. Could be worse, in Kent county it's a half rotted out Honda Civic with a light bar mounted on the hood. For the record, however before my little Ranger came home a 1999 Saturn SL1 got me back and forth to my grouse covert for a number of years.

One of the funniest things I ever saw in Charlotte County was a crappy import SUV (Rav4 or something like that) parked at the wharf. It had a winch on the front, mounted to the hood ....
 
Well, I put a bull moose in a Smart car and drove from FSJ to Kamloops.

That was nothing compared to my buddy who strapped an elk to his CT90 and drove from the Yukon to Cranbrook.
 
I use to have a VW Golf. I picked up a fish box from one of the fisherman in the passage and just cut the head and legs off the deer. I lined the trunk with a tarp and the fish box fit right in. I managed to jam them in and keep the blood from getting in the carpet. easy as pie.
