I was returning from a hunt when I killed a Turkey so close to my jeep that my 1100 slung the empty hull inside the jeep!Ive witnessed one time a buck snort at a machine and stroll on past it.

We have an electric golf cart that we use on the farm. I have gotten to the point where I prefer it over my ATV as a hunting buggy.
It is smooth and very quiet.
I think the bike would b perfect
Or anywhere else motorized vehicles are prohibited. From what I've researched about the subject, E-bikes are pretty much useless on public ground in the west. They don't have the range to be used where motorized vehicles are allowed and they aren't allowed anywhere that any other motorized vehicle isn't allowed. The other problem is how would you recharge them on a multi day wilderness hunt? I think they'd be great on a hunting lease or private ground for quiet transport if you have a place to plug them in at night.In CO, no, they can not be used in a wilderness area.
You don't have a SxS UTV like a Polaris?I am 1.25 miles from my back door to my blind.
....too far to walk, too close to drive.
Actually I am thinking that the electric bike would work out good on the farm too.

I take one of these. Typically the Big Reds. View attachment 842607
Honestly, never had to get parts. Even on my oldest one, aside from a headlight or a battery here and there. Plenty of aftermarket parts out there though. Mine are all original for the most part. These Honda Atc's are bullet proof. To keep this gun related, both Big Reds have a nice trunk for your traveling gun needs .Wow. Haven't seen any of those is a long time. Especially in that good of condition. Where do you even get parts to keep them running?
I love it. I'm a die hard atc fan.That’s more likely than folks knowing how much easier and more maneuverable they are in the woods than a 4wheeler.

This bicycle has tires on it almost as big as the motorcycle I was doing off road riding on this past weekend, a Yamaha XT225.
Wonder if they make knobbies for it?
There is an electric motorcycle, Zero, that would definitely haul a deer out. https://www.zeromotorcycles.com/zero-fx/

When I was in high school, me and some of my buddies modified one of those kids push scooters in a similar way in order to haul beer up into the canyons. Wasn't until years later I learned we unconsciously imitated those guys. We just tacked together a crude wooden shelf onto the foot bed and lashed it in place with paracord. When we were done, we'd just coast back down on our now unladen scooter. Yes, we packed out our cans, too. It worked, that's all that mattered to us reprobates. We could haul a case and a half on each one of we did our part right.On the other hand, our enemies in viet nam were known to haul out considerable payloads on bicycles while walking them. So based on that, I suppose it is doable.

Except when you're going down a steep hill and have to make a turn. Head over heels.
Two guys in my old hunt club got broken bones trying to do it. They sold their Big Reds and bought 4-wheelers.
