I recently aquired some property only accessible by fourwheeler or walking. With a very good amount of hogs.  Grin
Walking after my dogs sounds like a nightmare so I have decided fourwheeler is the way to go.

Just curious how many people hunt off them?
Would love to hear input on name brands, models, what to stay away from and your set up.

Most of my friends hunt off Rangers or Buggies. I would like to see your SET UP!!!!
DOG BOXES
TRAILERS
RIGS.

Anything and everything that you can mount on a fourwheeler or pull behind.

I am trying to get some ideas. My ideal situation would be a small box with a rig rack or chain on top.
That could hold and store 4/5 (50lbs dogs) easily.

THANKS FROM FLORIDA!!!!!!

I hunt off a ranger too, but if I was to go back to a 4-wheeler I'd go with a honda. You see way more old honda's than any other brand out there. With the box as long as it ain't wider than the wheeler it's up to. If it's just a little wider you'll tear it off...I know, atleast I did

I use a big red sxs but lots of my friends use 4 wheelers. They all have a platform on the rear with clips for hooking dogs. Most Cary 3 to 4 dogs on the back plus a rack on front for bulldogs. These racks are normally square tubing with plywood. They tend to bolt on the factory racks .

everybody over this way hunts off fourwheelers are rangers. i have a four wheeler and a ranger and like the fourwheeler better for the terrain i hunt in mainly because its hard to get a ranger through a pine thicket its a little easier getting a fourwheeler between trees. most people over this way use hondas they get put to test and seem to be the best. i have a 450 formena and a 650 rincon i like the 450 the best, it has a basket rack on the back with a box built on it i can haul about 5/6 dogs in it but i have to ride by myself, if i hunted open land and didnt mind walkng a little i would definetly hunt off the ranger more, you can haul more dogs and other things and its way more comfortable to ride than a fourwheeler.
