Synthetic game bags-which ones do you use?
« on: April 06, 2019, 10:40:27 AM »
Thinking of getting some synthetic game bags. I have been using the Alaska bags but looking for something more bug resistant.
Looking at T.A.G. Bags but wondering what else you all have used and what you like.
Thanks!
My interpretation of the rules are open to interpretation.
Once I thought I was wrong but I was mistaken.

I have T.A.G bags and Black Ovis's version. I like them a lot.  They are pretty much the same. So couldn't say one is better than the other.

Get some Black Ovis off of Camofire.  Lightweight, durable and wash up like new.

I use both the Caribou Gear and Allen Backcountry bags.  Both wash up nicely after use.  Haven't had to replace one yet.

I’ve used Ovis and Caribou and they are slightly different sized but both work awesome.

I too use the Blackovis that I got off Camofire.  Packed out 4 animals in them now and they're doing great.

Make your own.
Go to home depot and buy 2 cloth painters tarps.  Cut them and half, then fold each half in half, stitch up the two sides.  Cheap easy and extremely durable and bug proof.  Wash up just fine and big enough for an elk quarter or a half of a deer....

The Allen's are trash.  I bought 4 of them for my moose hunt a couple years ago and 2 of them tore to pieces trying to put quarters in them. I like Alaska.

I’ve had two sets of TAG bags tear on me. I switched to Caribou Gear bags and I like them much better.

I have used the black ovis xl bags for about 3 years now. Probably about 6 animals through them and they are great. Got them off camofire.
