It appeared from the picture of the elk that the man had not gutted it before trying to pull it uphill with his ATV. That would have greatly reduced the weight of the elk. Also appeared he did not tie back the antlers toward the elk's rear, which would have precluded the antlers from getting hung up in the brush and ground, etc.
Shoulda-woulda-coulda, huh?
Hope the man recovers and enjoys his fresh elk backstrap for Thanksgiving!

Big animals, 400 to 700# to work on by your self.......Gutting helps....removing head...also helps.
