I never did use mine for stalking as I found it really noisy if it brushed against anything. However it was excellent for carrying logs from the far end of the garden after we had some felling done. Certainly tough enough & if you weren’t moving around forestry plantations it could work.

They are absolutely rubbish, poor quality of workmanship and the stitching fails on the straps.
Not much better than Harkila wellies!
Far better option to buy an Ogdens or Monarch Roe sack @Monarch Country Products

Second on Ogden’s products -top quality. For fallow extraction, get the Ogden’s Sika sack. It’s bigger than the roe sack and I’ve had good sized prickets in mine.

I’ve had one for years no complaints. Had two roe in it without any problems. I believe the more recent ones suffer from the build issues described above.

Put it on lying down then roll over to get to your feet just like squaddies with heavy bergens.
Having carried fallow pricketts on my back in a Sika sack, I would strongly advise against it. Numerous times fallen over and unable to get back up without getting out of the straps.. Then the problem is getting the bag back on your back....
Have realised as I've grown older, that doing things like that will eventually end up in a serious, possibly life threatening injury, far better a drag sled or similar (or a quad
).
Roe and small fallow maybe worth back packing out, but that's it.

That’s what I did!
Exactly what I did
