If you already have a mountain bike, why not buy one of these and attach it to the back?

Whilst riding the bike make sure that you are wearing a brown coat and have antlers on your head. You know, to lure the deer.

Never done it, but I have heard these guys make great hunting fat bikes

EDIT: Oops, didnt realize they closed their doors.

Some of the older fat bikes, like the original Pugsley and the ones by Framed & Charge, absolutely suck for trail riding because of self-steer, weight, and their sluggishness. However, since some of them have rack & fender mounts and your goal is to haul stuff and they have the ability to do that & have room for the beefy tires and can be found at a deal, it's something that should be great for your purposes, particularly since a better-steering fat bike will be more sluggish when you load it up anyway. I.E. Those bikes sucked if your comparison was trail bike to fat bike or racing fat bike to those, but for your purposes there should be little difference between the Felt and one of the ones I mentioned. Just know that any fat bike can be challenging in particularly deep, loose snow, so consider that.

In a couple of years when my youngest is in school and easier to take care of, I'm planning to get back into trout/steelhead fishing & camping trips and will likely grab a fat bike for that purpose since the prime spots I fish are generally quite a hike and I'll use it deer hunting as well.

you might want to look at mountaineering/ice climbing uses - i know there are climbers who are kitting out fat bikes essentially as 'approach vehicles' to get through the back country to base camp faster. their needs would be fairly similar to yours, i guess.

for trailers, i've used a bob yak for years and am constantly amazed at how much abuse it takes. the off-road version (the ibex) has suspension. not sure about disc/fatty compatibility but . . . there you go.

good luck,
-mike

There a few videos on YT with bike mods for bows & guns. Haven't looked at it for a while since most of the land I hunt is rough as shit and it's 10x easier to just walk.

First, you need a semi-auto rifle to hunt poor, defenseless turkeys. Now, you need a fat bike. Where will it end with you people?!
