Figured I'd get more response in this forum rather than gear review forum. Considering getting a 150 qt for elk...Grizzly is a good bit cheaper...never had either one before...
Any thoughts?

I like my Yeti. Its tough as nails. If you are just going to use it this one time, I would just say get a cheaper one. Another thing, Yetis are HEAVY. My 45 full is about all one person can handle. I haven't used it enough to say about how long it will hold ice. (its put up for chirstmas persent) Thats all I got!

There is a test on UTube and the cheap Coleman beat them all.

Check out Engel coolers. More insulation than the competition. If youre interested I can get you a really good deal on one.

I have a 120 qt. Coleman xtreme and it will hold ice for three solid days provided you keep from opening it to much which is the key to any cooler anyway. I paid somewhere around $60.00 for it at Walmart some years back. I love it

i have a big yetti i love it for keeping ice it will hold ice for over a week out of the direct sunlight but id never buy one just for storing meat! I like the 120 ct colemans for that!

I've got a 120qt igloo I put 5 20lb bags of ice in Monday around lunch. As of last night there was less than a 1/4" of water in the bottom of the cooler.

The last thing i want to worry about is someone stealing a $500 cooler out of the back of my truck....Igloo & Coleman are plenty good for me.

I have a 250 qt yeti that I use on week long hunting or fishing trips. It will hold 8-9 deer quartered and deboned packed in ice and holds ice for about 5 days. I have had this cooler for about 6 years and haven't had any problems out of it.

stupid yeti wont hold ice for nothin. sold it and bought an ice machine....and a small refigerator. Those things are coach purses for men.

I'm sure they have there place and are well made just can't see paying that much for a cooler ice is readily avaiable where I hunt at.. I have the Coleman extreme 5 day works great. Igloo has a like model aswell ! I have enough to worry about dont to add a high dollar cooler to it
