Hey all, buddy of mine had hiking poles or trekking poles on our last hunt. I was surprised how much of a difference they made when packing out meat.
Curious what poles you all use if any. Obviously looking for light weight and durable.
Thanks
I'm heading to "East Helena".. (I think that's the name of the closest town) this fall for an archery elk hunt. Have never been and dont know what to expect. Other buddies of mine have gone and had a great time. Dont remember a single thing said about wolves or bears. Anyone know anything...
I have the eberlestock RMEF edition and it has been good for me. Packed out 5 elk with it and also packed in a 5 day hunt worth of gear. Use it for single or multi day packs.

Also got bed extender and that hitch mounted carrier
Along with adding helper springs to my truck yo allow additional 1500 lbs of payload... I feel ready!
Grandejuan. I'm going on the exact same sounding hunt... what outfitter did you use if any? 4 of us are going. 2 driving ( me and a buddy) with everyone's coolers and gear. 2 flying with carry on and rifles. We are hu tint oct 1st to oct 8th. I have no idea what's a "good moose" is. I...
Buddies who helped me tried to talk me into a drain, but I opted for no drain and made it water tight. However I will do my best to limit actual "water" that is in there.
