Does anyone have any experince with hunting with eletric hunting bikes? I hunt in southwest Miss and I am not sure these bikes can handle making it up the steep bottoms.

Dad has one and he rides that thing all over. He says it doesn't seem to spook wildlife, see' lots of deer from it.

I've taken it on the gravel roads along the camp. UT was pretty impressive. If there is traction, it'll likely climb it.

He has a Rambo I believe.

Don't take them where they ought not be or the OB's ex officio green jeans will drop a dime on you.

They’re great for riding old logging roads that have grown up on public land.

I don't care for them simply because guys use them illegally on public land. They are only supposed to be used on ATV trials and of course no one listens that that.

They're awesome. It's too easy and quiet to just ride all the way to the stand, so now I've gotten lazy.

A good mid-drive will handle hills no problem but will drain the battery alot faster.

I got one this year and really like it. Made a number of hunts and it’s just so much easier to get down the logging road, even gets through the swampy stuff.

Did almost eat it bad when I recently fallen limb nailed my foot, but my light went out that trip.

Many dimes have been dropped is all I am going to say on this subject.

I ride mine on public land in MS. My only regret is I didn’t get a step through. This is a Himiway.

Sounds like E-bikes catching up to Mudboat status …

I was hunting in Missouri this year on public, group of idiots came riding up on me in the middle of the woods and stopped and told me I should buy one. I said yeah I would have parked it on the trail head like you’re supposed to do. They rode by everyone in our group. They are awesome though but they are being used illegally is the problem.

I wish they had been available in the mid/late 90s. That 2 mile walk at Cocodrie got old.
