Have a hog hunt coming up in a few weeks and a thought hit me.
If we are looking to get 3 hogs of 150 lbs, or so, skinned and quartered, total, what size coolers might I need?
I was thinking 2 150 qt coolers would be enough for that but now I'm wondering.
Any thoughts and opinions would be greatly appreciated.

That's plenty of room. It'll be some heavy coolers after loading them with ice, but that's a good problem to have.
You have some high hopes. I like that type of attitude!

"You have some high hopes. I like that type of attitude" you have to have an attitude like that when it comes to hunting. If you go in with a failing attitude then you are bound to fail. To me its not all about the killing, but the comarodarie , having a good day in the outdoors. Add a kill just that much better

Well, we went out and got our hogs.
One was 98 lbs, one was 138 lbs, and one was 264 lbs.
The meat filled both coolers completely.
The meat is being processed now, and in a few days we are hoping for some great eating.
