What's your preferred blind bag? I'm looking for something to make it easier to get shells, calls, and chokes to the blind along with anything else I might need. What do y'all suggest/recommend?

Whichever brand you buy (Drake, Cabela's, Rig Em Right, etc..) just get one that has a waterproof bottom/floating bag.
I've used mine for about 4 years now and that has come in very handy at some unopportune times.

I have 2 Drake bags. One is smaller that I use for walk in type hunts or areas where I know I'll be moving around a bit. The other is larger and I use it more for long days afield and goose hutning. I've had them both for 4 years now I guess. They have held up great. I definitely recommend them.

I have a few bags but I'd rather have a pack on. Free up mu hands, and carry the rounds on my chest...like going on a patrol haha. I guess it's the Marine Grunt in me...

I have the medium and extra large cabelas bag with the hard waterproof bottom. I only use the extra large when I am in my boat, because it is BIG and can get very heavy. But, it protects a mojo from bouncing around in the boat, and contains all my shells, calls, gloves, breakfast, etc with plenty of space.

I use the medium when hiking in. great size to hold a couple boxes of shells, water, anything else I bring.

Definitely recommend getting one with waterproof bottom. May never need it, but definitely want it in case you do.

I also recommend going to a store (cabelas, bass pro, etc) and LOOKING at the bags for size. Even walk around the store and put a couple boxes of shells, and whatever else you might carry just to get a feel. Then put the stuff back so you don't HAVE to buy it all- or buy it- whichever.

good luck!

I like backpack style bags, so it keeps my hands free. They have so many pockets and can hold a ton of stuff. Drake makes a backpack and I believe Cabela's does too.

I bought a game winner one from academy. I would say it is medium in size and has the hard/waterproof bottom. So far it has not had any issues with seams or tears or anything negative. I really liked it when comparing to the drake bag right next to it that was 1/2 the size but 2X the price and didn't have the hard bottom...

I believe it was $49 or $59. The Drake was about $90-$100...

I think Game Winner makes some pretty good products if you don't want to spend a fortune. I also have GW waders too. Have had them for going on 4 seasons...

Just my .02
