How heavy are they when A. Killed? B. Strapped to your back?


Cow - 500-700 lbs
Bull - 800-1100 lbs

Our packs were about 150lbs give or take. I carried a hind quarter, front quarter, both straps, both loins, both neck roasts. He carried two other quarters. My pack was just a frame so we compensated by letting me haul more weight. Im younger too . I have no idea how we would have gotten that bull out, as he was a beast. It would have been a multi-trip hike.
