Default Game carts

We’ve been using a commercial cart for a few years and killed a couple sets of wheels too. I’m thinking of using some dirt bike front wheels for a cart... what’s your thoughts? Side by side wheels ? in line wheels? One wheel? Two wheels?

Depends on the typical terrain you hunt on - do you need to go over logs, lots of sidehilling, etc?

I'm curious... What killed your existing wheels? What design were they? Inflatable? Metal-Spoked? Injection-Molded Plastic?

The first set were spiked and lasted awhile, the second set were injection moulded plastic-solid rubber wheels. They didn’t last 3 feet with 4 elk quarters. Lots of side hills and lots of logs where we use it the most.

4 Elk quarters? You need a trailer! You could spend $500 on one for your truck that wouldn't haul that. A game cart is something you pull by hand isn't it?

I don’t know how I typed 4 quarters.... it was late at night I guess.

We had 2 on and it collapsed without even moving it. The spoked wheels we had lasted longer but gave out last year.

This is what got me thinking about using dirt bike front wheels.
