Growing up as a lifelong bowhunter, I learned early on that every ounce matters in the backcountry. The deeper I ventured into the mountains, the more weight became my enemy, and I found myself obsessing over ways to make my hunts more efficient. I knew that deboning meat could drastically cut weight, but it always came with trade-offs, losing the natural structure that bone provides made meat harder to handle, hang, and keep cool. Still, the farther I pushed into rugged drainages and remote ridgelines, the more I leaned toward stripping away unnecessary pounds. But I needed a better solution. I wanted the stability and airflow that bone-in quarters provide without the extra burden.

That’s why I created GameStix. This lightweight yet rigid system replaces the bone while keeping your quarters elongated, rigid, and hanging freely. Remove your game bag to clean your meat and replace your game bag all while your boneless quarter hangs. No need to rotate your internal meat to the outside as our perforated post system allows ambient air to cool the meat evenly.
Keep structure and rigidity to your quarters for easy pack outs, evenly distributing weight high amongst your pack or
In the backcountry, every hunt is situational. Staying prepared for all situations is the key to success.
