Game Bags
« on: June 06, 2017, 01:39:36 PM »
OK, upping my game this year on game bags.  What's your favorite?  Kifaru?  Kuiu?  T.A.G.?

TIA for any advice!

Whatever walmart or the local hunting store is selling.   

Are the kuiu bags a tighter more athletic fit and $200 per bag?  Lol

More than anything I'd like to get something that takes up a little less space, is a tad lighter (less important), and reusable.

Ive used the kuiu bags quarter and bone out bags on one deer. They worked well and seemed to hold up well but that is just 1 animal.

My family and i have been using Caribou Gear game bags for a couple years and they hold up really well. Been fortunate to use mine on 6 or 8 animals and they are still in great shape. My only problem with them is unless you set up your backpack correctly they are rectangles that hold a lot of meat and can be an issue for weight distribution in the pack.

Are you planning on boning out or quartering?

I have used heavy almost canvas type bags for years and loved them.  Last year I tried some Black Ovis bags.  Super lightweight and cleaned up nice.  Time will tell if they last as long as the old heavy ones I used to use.  I still have the old ones.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

I like the Caribou Gear bags the best.  Strong and easy to clean for re-use.

I use my NAFA beaver sacks that they give away for free. Woven poly like a feed sack only bigger. I guess if you are not a trapper though you are out of luck.
