Game bags

[MTtrout]

Tag bags for years but as we had to replace some, I’ve been buying argali bags to try something new. I like the bags but the paracord they use is garbage. Both do their job though.

I won a set of the Argali and have used them several times, they are great.

Black Ovis have always served me well. Clean up well and are relatively cost-effective vs other options.

I have the SG bags and the buckle system to hang them over a limb is actually pretty damn handy. Didn’t think much of it at first until I had to leave a bull overnight and used the system to hang quarters. Pretty slick.

Use either some Argali's I got, or these ones Kifaru made but I guess doesn't sell anymore, really like the Kifaru ones.

I also won some argali bags. Didn’t think I would like them but now can’t see using anything else lol

So I can’t decide. Argali, black Ovis red, or the stone glacier live wild game bags. All have something different to offer. Performance is obviously the most important.

How well do they breathe while also keeping bugs out and off meat.
Durability is probably equally important because a reusable bag that only lasts one or two animals isn’t worth it. I used to have caribou gear for 10+ years but have decided to retire them after many animals. The one thing I notice is they are kind of heavy. And maybe bulky but no more than any others.

What do yall think is the best performer of these?

Black Ovis is done. Eliminates one of those options.

We had been using graksaw for a few years but the durability just wasn’t great. They’d rip on trees and rocks with minor abrasion. Had a caribou hanging for 5 days, didn’t notice a rip from the tree. The martens and crows had a field day. They’re good bags, just know the lightweight material comes at a price.

After that we switched to argali and have had zero complaints so far. I have all the sizes then pick and choose depending on the hunt. I just know they’ll take a beating and that’s worth the extra cash and weight to protect our meat.
