Angus.I never put meat in the garbage bag unless it is already in a game bag and don't use the cheese cloth type. Sometimes I have to pack it out right away because of bears. It is still warm,but typically is not in the bags more than an hour -an hour and half . If the meat has hung overnight and pretty much bled out, then I don't use the garbage bags. Wish I had cordura bags instead of canvas.
I ran into guy from TN one year. He had put warm meat in garbage bag right after quartering and then put the bags under a tree for shade . Then he returned the next morning to pack it out.The smell was horrendous
That is a good idea about the double cincha.Not being a motorcycle rider, what is the tie down? Is it just a ratchet strap?
Here is a tip.Instead of black pepper or some of those sprays, use chili powder sprinkled on the quarters to keep flies away. It washes off and leave no taste on the meat
