hog hunting pack

[64ssking]

what kind of pack do you use? how do you pack the kill out?

Depends on the size. Either drag it, quarter it or bone it out. The distance and terrain dictate that. The key is to have a pack that has a lot of extra room. When I use to hunt public land I would secure a small pack to a pack frame and carry parachute cord.

If I can score this weekend I will wheel barrow the carcass along a trail back to camp....

I use a fanny pack that contains a knife, sharpener, headlamp, gloves and drag strap. We are not allowed to bone out or quarter so we have to gut in the field and recover whole. We have a game cart that (usually) gets deployed depending on the locale.

I am trying to build one based Barney's frame. Thus far it's a striker daypack and kubota 4 wheeler

I carry an LBT multicam that has a good hydration system. Also I've been putting a kids plastic snow sled in the back of my truck with plenty of 550 cord and a couple of blocks. Looking to pick up a nice external frame for my elk hunts.

Eberlestock X2 w/ Meat bags.

I almost went with the Eberlestock but found a deal for a badlands that I couldn't pass up. Haven't read any negatives yet on Eberlestock just the price is up there. The badlands 2200 pack has a lot of room in it and should pack out quarters nicely which it also has an orange flap that you can use to secure your meat and hopefully stand out to other hunters. Only issue I see is the pack is a little tall and for skinnier folks may have issue tightening the waist straps since I have to pull them all the way basically. I just plan on quartering and carrying it out that way to cool the meat faster and prevent spoilage. I picked the pack off camofire for close to a hundred bucks cheaper so keep an eye there and see if any packs pop up.

sled is a great idea

 

[thewolfman]

Yep...a sled works very well.... i learned that from a buddy in the east hunting whitetails in snow...lol
Extra extra rope has helped me in alot of my situations packing meat or tying half a pig on the outside of the pack doing 2 trips...

Yes location is everything. My setup for LS is badlands super day with 1" x3ft loop drag straps. But at LS I hunt out of a boat and all drags are downhill.

First I use a pack of Catahoulas...then when I am done I use a 6 pack...
