Title: Caribou Gear Game Bags?
Post by: johnnyaustin44 on April 01, 2014, 05:29:10 PM: Any of you guys had a chance to use these bags or look at them? Was thinking if getting a set of them for this season. Seem like they could be pretty neat. All reviews I've read of them so far seem to be great. Light weight game bags and plenty of them. Comparable to TAG bags?

For $10, Remington game bags do us well.

Yeah they are reusable. Made from some secret synthetic. Pricey though. You get I believe 7 bags for around 89 bucks. Bags for quarters, scrap meat , back straps and tenderloins and small bags for camp meat to eat that night or soon.

Thanks for the input. Breathability was something I was concerned about. They almost seemed like garbage bags by the looks

Mostly online from what I've seen. Midway and Sportsmans. Elk101 has them in stock. And from their website Riverside archery also carries them supposedly.

Post by: northwesthunter84 on April 01, 2014, 10:12:42 PM: I have both, one set for an elk sized animal and the Carnivore II pack for deer, boned out elk or bear. The material is awesome. I put my hands on it before purchase. It looks significantly more durable than my Alaskan Game Bags. I can't wait to try them out. If I get two years+ out of them that is equal to what I paid for Alaskan's so the price point is right for me. Riverside Archery has them, and Sportsman's Warehouse had them for a little while. They also have a large pack for a moose, the quarter bag could fit a whole deer the way it looked.
