New Sleeping bag advice

[C Bow]

I am going to buy a new sleeping bag I have a Western Mounteering Badger 15 degree bag it weighs 38 oz. I have been very happy with it zero complaints. At 70 years of age I am thinking about trying a Feathered Friends Raven UL 10 degree at 33.5 oz or the Swift UL 20 at 29 oz. I will be hunting the Bearthtooths in September. I have been cutting weight as much as possible on everything Thanks for any input

Check out a quilt. As long as you have a good pad. I use a 22 degree quilt with a x-therm pad down into high teens. Super light and very warm.

I've got a Stone Glacier Chillikote 0 degree bag which is amazing.
Anything above 10 degrees or so I use a quilt that is a custom job rated to 12 degrees.
Both are at or under 2#.

I have the regular Feathered Friends raven and love it. On nights it’s too warm I just unzip and use it like a quilt.

Depends on how much room you like in your bags. Those are slimmer cuts than the Badger. Quilts have a learning curve, and if you are comfortable with a bag i wouldn't change now to save a few ounces. What pad are you using? Usually easier and cheaper to save weight switching pads than bags.

I like the EE Conundrum. You can run it as either a quilt or bag. I have the 0° long & wide size in 850FP that finishes at 38 oz. You can shave weight by ordering less fill and/or smaller size or paying extra for 950FP. I do not recommend going with less fill unless you sleep in your hunting mid layers.
