Duffle bag as luggage

[chizelhead]

I've used an extra large North Face duffle for years (~25) domestically and internationally with no problems. That being said, I just got back from a trip and noticed some wear that is finally catching up with it. I'll likely retire it for another. Airline hunt travel for me is rifle case + duffel + carry on. The duffel holds my backpack and most gear for 7-10 day hunts. I also pack gear in my rifle case. I like the NF type duffel because it sheds water.

I travel more than most people, and don't own a "real suitcase"

Duffel bags and backpacks my whole life. The ones I use most aren't even wheeled.

Pelican cases for stuff that needs protection.

I use a taku 5500 fits pack and gear bow or gun case and a small backpack w all optics as a carry on for my hunting trip every year

Mystery Ranch Flight Monster--carry it w/ the backpack straps when it is full and heavy. Very well-designed piece of gear.
