I got some Allen game bags that are washable/reusable from big 5 for 9$. Hope they’re ok  :dunno:

we used 8 of the allen, and 4 of the "realtree" brand from Walmart, which I am sure are the same thing this year.
only complaint was the small tabs they include for hanging are weak, be broke 2 sets with loaded bags, not super heavy loaded either, probably 30-40# in them.

my plan is to cut paracord, and leave in the bags. then we have cordage to hang from that is much better quality.
they were a bloody mess when they hit the washing machine, came out looking basically like new. I will be purchasing another set of the allens, or the realtrees if they have them in the local walmarts here. I did pay more the 9$ for them though, think they were over 20 on amazon  :bash:

Are they made of cloth and will cover meat? They're probably OK then.

I found some allen game bags on sale at walmart for $5, used them on my spike elk then again on my buck deer and they look like they can keep going for a while.

I run my bloody game bags with cold water and no detergent on a quick wash setting, then rewash hot on a whites setting with detergent.  I could get them whiter by adding bleach, but I'd rather they be stronger and less white.
