Hey Roksliders,
Looking to buy a new lightweight bag for backpack hunts, and have a couple questions. I have narrowed it down (i think) to Mountain Hardwear Phantom and Outdoor Vitals summit, both 15 degree bags. Cost, weight, etc are all fairly similar, but looks like the Outdoor Vitals might pack down smaller which would be nice. Anyone running theses? Likes/dislikes?
Also I am about exactly 6' tall (195lbs) would you guys recommend the "regular" or long models? Most bags say regular good up to 6', but i am curious if you think i'd be better off with a long being i would be at the very upper end of the "regular" size range?
