Which Bison Gear Pack?
« on: March 05, 2008, 08:50:00 AM »
I have a Lost River and am looking to add a smaller pack.  Trying to decide between the Houndsman, Uncle Ray, and Outfitter.  I like the looks of the shoulder packs but am concerned that they will be flopping around as you worm your way thru cover.  Had this problem with a small military surplus shoulder pack.  I would appreciate some pros/cons from those who own one of these packs.

Oh I'm sorry I didn't realize you were trying to go smaller. I just wanted to mention the Elk Hunter pack by BG. It is not listed on the website, but is a good day pack. It stays put pretty good on your shoulders with the heavy duty hip belt. I shoot with it on. I guess you would not need to stuff it while hunting. Mike

For those of you who are attending the upcoming PBS banquet, Ang has a vendor booth there and will have a bunch of merchandise with him.  Also, as he always does, he is supporting PBS once again with a pack full of goodies donation!

When I talked with Angelo the other day, it sounded like the website should be up soon, but like Terry mentioned I have been waiting and waiting.

Hopefully someone will join in with some comments to help me decide which pack will best fit the bill.

BTW

Not looking to get rid of the Lost River, just want to add a smaller pack when the LR size is not needed.

I'm with Terry on this one.  I check out the web site often, but nada.  Ang has some great products, just wish the web site would get up to speed.

And as Kevin has said, he has really supported PBS (I won one of his hats in Salt Lake City) and am still using it.  Hope he brings a lot of his packs to Pittsburgh.  I'll be there Thrusday and would really like to pick through them.  Like I really need a third one of them!

The packs are top-notch in design and quality.  I use an Elk Pack model like the one in Mike's pic above but with tan straps.

Has anyone tryed the Lemhi pack for 2-4 day bivwacks and or packing heavier loads, like your gear plus an Elk cape and antlers strapped on. I guess I am asking, how comfortable does it stay under a load?
