Yeti cooler's

[Commando]

Trying to decide which size cooler to get and thought I'd see what everyone else runs. I'm gonna use it for pretty much everything but it's main purpose is for bird hunting and fishing. When I go bird hunting it's gonna be used all weekend and the fishing trips will vary. I'm thinking the 65 might be to small so that leaves the 75,105 or 110. What sizes do you guys run and or recommend?

Id go big as possible.

I'd check out https://www.rticcoolers.com also

They're big coolers are on back order at the moment. But I ordered one. I got one of their 30 oz Tumblers and love it.

Check the reviews and watch some videos on em'!

I bought the RTIC 65 and it was the right choice.  It is a tad bigger then the Yeti and does just what we need.  I plan on buying another as money permits, but I would rather have two medium sized coolers that are easy to lift and move then one monster.  Plus, with the 65, I use it for camping and other uses where my old 120 just sits in the garage until hunting season.  A 120 loaded is impossible for one guy to move and difficult for two.

Thanks for artic link. I will put them on my list to look at.
And the two coolers is a good point. The big ones can be a pain, I didn't think of that.

Especially these heavy duty ones. My loaded 65 is a chore for one man. There is times where I wish it was bigger but the times I've had to move it on my own I'm glad it was only a 65.

Canyon coolers are worth looking at also. High quality.

RTIC may be cheaper than yeti, but they are made in CHINA, like most other crap nowadays.  The yeti tundra's at least are manufactured in Iowa and Wisconsin, along with the Philippines.  I would rather spend more on American made, but that's just me.

If using late season I'd just go with a Coleman - no need to give up half the inside storage for insulation when its only 40 outside - a Coleman will hold a block of ice for a week in fall temperatures.   But yeti's are cool and I dig the thermal cups - hot coffee inside and outside isn't even warm.

I have the 65 yeti and love it.  My cousin bought the 110 and it's a beast.  He subsequently went and bought a 65, so now the 110 sits in the garage for most trips.

I bet no one knew that Igloo has been making a couple Yeti style coolers since 2013. https://www.igloocoolers.com/coolers-collection/coolers-sportsman Saw the 55 for $199 at Costco in Federal Way.

I had no idea. I'll look next time I'm at costco
I've tried the Colman's before but I always end up breaking them pretty fast.

I was stunned to when I walked into the store.  I was taking a double take to make sure what I was seeing was right.  Looks really sturdy and well built and also American made.

From the small amount of research I've done most everyone seems to like the Coleman extreme models over Igloo's comparable models.

We have a few Grizzly 60s and I would not want to move anything larger by myself when they are full.  KEEP THEM LOCKED DOWN W A HARDENED CHAIN AND GOOD PADLOCK.  Methamphetamine addicts don't have any trouble running off w/a full 150.

Here is Coleman's cooler (Esky) that's built like and comparable to Yeti, Grizzly, Rtic, etc..  They are just as heavy built.
