I’ve used the same set of pillow cases for 10 years on deer and elk. I had my wife stitch some paracord into the top of it so I can cinch it and hang it. You can also put them in a vacuum sealer to make them a little more compact and fit in your pack.

Same. But I use women’s 4XL panty hose vacuum sealers. Disposable, do not get reused!

Pillow cases are my go to. Cheap and do the trick.

Depends on your hunt. In the mountains/backcountry I use Argali high country which imo are the best money can buy. For day hunts I have cheaper Allen back country which have served me well for several seasons. I started with pillow cases and diy deep bags made from sheets (synthetic/nylon blends) which also worked good but ended up with random lose threads occasionally.

I use the cheap cheese cloth ones. Buy the big ones and you can double wrap quarters. Never had an issue and if one rips or gets lost who cares. When done with them soak them in cold water for a few hours in the slop sink then throw in the washing machine come out brand new. My buddy uses pillow cases...star wars if I remember right but could be a mix.

I’ve used Alaskan game bags for decades and tend to get 2-3 bulls on each before they tear. Have done a great job. Was given some tag bags and used them on a small bull this year. Things I like. They are lighter, condense smaller than 5 Alaskan bags and the drawstring was handy. One did tear from sticking to the blood and removed the next day when my packing buddy pulled too hard where it was stuck on the blood. Give them a thumbs up and look to breath sufficiently. I use four on quarters and a 5th for loose meat. Have used 4 Alaskans doubling up the front arms. You don’t need to spend a ton on bags and I use sewed sheets for packing the next day. Also, flys were not an issue this year, but have found blow on my Alaskan before you just knock off, that may not be an issue with the tag bags.

Historically used cheap Allen bags but was gifted some TAGS bags. They are alot less volume and weight in pack but they were a little small for elk quarters. I used one bag for bstraps and got the Allen bags on return trip with frame pack. Will save them for backcountry deer hunts.

Has anyone used the Tricer bags?

Just used the GOHUNT elk bags on my AZ bull and was super impressed with them

I Grakksaw for backcountry and love them. I use Kuiu for everything else but my son bought Marsupial bags this year and they were even better. They are light, have multiple attachment/hanging loops and are super reflective which was great at night. I will be switching over to them soon
