OUR STORY
Built in a garage. Proven in the field. Designed so no hunter has to suffer through the pack-out alone.
How It Started
THREE MOOSE. ONE VERY SORE HUNTER.
It started after a very successful moose season. Three moose harvested — and even after getting them loaded, the muscles were screaming. There had to be a better way.
A search online turned up plenty of options for deer and hogs — but nothing built for elk or moose. The animals Western Canadian hunters actually pursue. That gap became the mission.
The Build
WHAT I NEEDED WAS A FRONT-END LOADER FOR MY SIDE BY SIDE
I couldn't find anything designed for elk or moose online, only deer and hog equipment. So I started thinking about what might work with some modifications. I came up with a few ideas but none I was really happy with. Then it hit me — what I needed was a front-end loader, but for the back of my side by side.
It didn't take long to come up with the concept. With some trial and error I built the Elk Hauler in my garage and had it ready by spring. The only problem was the season wasn't open yet to test it. So it sat and waited for elk camp.
Proven In The Field
4 BULLS. THEN EVERYTHING CHANGED.
That first camp harvested 4 bulls. Every one came out with the Elk Hauler with minimal effort and no one laid up for days. The hunting partners kept saying the same thing: patent it, get it to market.
Three years and a few modifications later, 10 elk, one moose, no back pain. It lets hunters go further, hunt alone, and recover game faster before the meat spoils in warm weather.
A Note From The Founder
"I hope everyone that tries this, whether in a group or by themselves, has as much pain-free success as I have. Not only has this saved my joints and muscles, but when the weather is warm it has saved meat from being spoiled. The retrieval time is just that much faster."
