Speezer87 and MT_mulies thanks for the info and sharing your experiences. I am definitely increasing my workout routine; I've been thinking about wearing a weighted pack everytime I walk the dogs as a supplement to my workouts, similar to what you mentioned MT_mulies haha... And yea, it definitely seems like a task to do with multiple people, both for adding muscle and keeping the spirits up.
Regarding packouts, what kind of backpacks do you guys use? I have a Gregory Baltoro 75 liter (4,577 cubic inches) pack I have used for many backpacking trips. It is an internal frame pack with a large main compartment. I have considered getting a new one specifically for hunting if this one won't cut it; I've found some that are external frames where you can remove the pack and strap the meat to the frame itself. Is this necessary? Do you generally put the meat in the compartments or strap to the pack? Also, not a big deal, but my current pack doesn't have a rifle sling/holder, so I would have to figure that out.
