Looking for info on the Kifaru Dall bag and possibly purchasing a used one. I see it is/ was there biggest expedition pack. Is there a reason it’s discontinued?

I dunno but Kifaru seems to have lost the plot with their bag options now. Not the company they once were.

Gohunt and Scheels have Dall bags available.

I have a Dall bag (not for sale) and I like it. I use it for everything from day hunts to week plus long hunts. Obviously it's a silly choice for day hunts, or even a 2 or 3 day hunt, but it cinches down just fine and then you have a giant (GIANT) bag to put meat in without having to use meat shelf. Like 2 rear elk quarters inside the bag with room to spare.

A lot of people like having all the different compartments on a pack, but I have a system in how I load my gear so the things I need during the day are on top and when I make camp, everything comes out. It works good for me.

I use a 2-zipper lid for all the small things like toiletries, first aid, phone charger, toilet paper, etc.

The water bottle pockets are very well designed, similar to MR Marshall. I am extremely inflexible, and even I can get bottles in and out while the pack is on. When the pack is full, they work really well and bottles don't fall out, but if the pack is almost empty, like day hunting, they don't work quite as well. I lost a bottle yesterday, but I never should have had it in the side pockets with the brush I was going through.

I love the bag for longer hunts but I do sorta kinda wanna get a smaller kifaru bag for 1-2 day hunts. I have a MR pop-up for that, but I hate that pack so I just take the huge kifaru.
