Even though it’s a 2006 model the Dye Explorer will cost you quite a sum. It keeps its price high, but the qualities of the bag totally justify it. It’s a beautiful looking bag, huge and very practical. There’s plenty of room for your gear and more. It has many, many pockets for storing wallets and keys, plus removable gun sleeves, and clothes compartment. And even when you think you’re running out of space – there’s a little zipper that can expand the bag 2″ more. The Explorer 2006 also has wheels and, unlike the Navigator 2008, it is equipped with telescopic handle for easy transport. It has padded back and bottom so it keeps it shape and is very comfortable. Here’s the provided info about it:
– Small travel wheelie bag
– Telescopic handle and clear wheels for easy transport
– Two book-style padded gun pages
– Two main compartments for gear
– Accordion style expandability for over packing
– Two carry handles
– Built in barrel compartment and bottle sleeve
– Sectional interior
There’s just one thing I want to point out as a downside – even though the Explorer looks like a backpack there are no back straps on it. This way you can only wheel it, but not carry it on your back. Other than that the bag is great and if you have $100 to spend on it I suggest you do. You won’t regret making that decision.
