All in good fun.....I did pack out a bull once, leap frog method and instead of undoing my load from the frame every time I just arranged the meat in the game bag to fit over my shoulders and it was super comfy having that weight distribution up front....granted it was only 55-60 pounds but it was a good ways in

It’s been said already but the first thing I thought of when I saw these was the butt out tool. Looks super gimicky and honestly can’t even think of a single activity where I would want this

Humans have evolved from eating meat were they found or killed it to packing in hide bags to the back board (Frame)! Kind of like reinventing the wheel IMO.

Only 15 I thought the new standard was 20 miles with 10K ft elevation gain.

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

I can't think of a situation where I would use those. If I am close enough to the truck to use those then I am close enough to carry it by hand.

Dude, I was looking at those bags, thinking they remind me of something I used to carry like that, and you said it!! That Sunday paper used to kill me. I think I was 12 or 13 and was probably 75-80 pounds trying to haul that heavy ass bag around, good times right there!!

Looks stupid to me.
When im packing elk quarters or anything else that has some weight, the last thing I want is the weight to be on my shoulders. Use your pack frame, get your waist belt set properly to hold the majority of the weight on your hips and start hiking out.

I’ll admit, they look dumb.   If anything, I can see how the equal weight distribution would be an advantage.  Pack frame weight distribution on your hips works better milder incline/decline, not so much the lovely vertical stuff.

Tell that to sheep and goat hunters.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

I recall the old news paper carrying bags, and like others have said, exactly what I thought of.
I also recalled slipping a time or two with them on, and trying to catch my balance. Once the weight shifted, over you went.
