Reviews
As advertised
"Worked great for a bull elk. I did purchase an additional bag to separate trim from backstraps. Let them soak in the ice water in my coolers after dropping the meat at the butcher and that really cleaned them up. Threw them in the washer to finish up the cleaning."
Well packaged and arrived on
"Well packaged and arrived on time. Looking forward to using them this fall."
I have used Caribou game
"I have used Caribou game bags ever since they came out. They are the BEST, period. Lightweight, tough, and reuseable. I probably have used them for at least a dozen elk kills, and they are the first thing that I load in my pack before every archery season."
Awesome on bone kit
"Great kill kit. We packed out 2 mature elk using same bags and tarp was very helpful keeping meat off the ground. Excellent quality. After a successful hunt and retuned home. I purchased this kit for my self."
Buy it now
"Excellent. Just buy it. The game bags are awesome and hold elk with no problem. Don't be like me who waited and has two $300 backpacks with bloodstains all over them because you didn't have game bags. Quality product."
Seems like a quality product
"Seems like a quality product and I look forward to using my game bags next season"
The Wapiti - Meat on Bone game bags
"Bought new bags after I dropped off meat to a processor who threw the old Caribou bags out. He didnt realize they are re-usable. Great quality and ready to go for next season now."
Have not used yet but
"Have not used yet but looks like quality material and craftsmanship. Lightweight, compact, washable and helpful reflective tagging are all great features."
Wapiti game bags for elk
"The bags are great and easily hold an elk quarter. I especially like the orange ones as they really stand out and are easy to spot from a distance."
"Great price and quality. Bags are good for deer and rams ot just for elk if you want the bigger bags . Or if you hunt elk and deer as well . These bags are good for both types of hunting"
