I Finally decided on a Hunting Pack, and I went with Nimrod Packs out of Washington State. I am familiar with their products, being a Firefighter and a USAR Member, we (USAR) use their bags. So having said that, here is my Mini Review on the Nimrod Apex Pack System. While Searching our site for Packs I found that there was very little about Nimrods, so I thought I would show you why I like their Pack. The Apex system is the Hunting Version of the USAR Pack I Have. Basically , it is 3 Packs in 1. a 600ci Base Belt Style Pack with Shoulder Straps that you can use alone, or Second , you can add the Pinnacle Bag to the Belt Setup giving you 1300ci. Finally and Third, you can add the Guide Pack, to either just the Basic Belt or the Belt/Pinnacle Pack Setup. The Guide Pack is 2600ci and by adding this to the Belt/Pinnacle Setup you will have nearly 4000ci and making it the Apex Pack System..
It seems that it will be a very Quite Pack, the "no see'um" Camo will work well Anywhere, it's not Predator or ASAT, but good none the less. The Fleece Fabric has a waterproof liner and the stitching is excellent. There is No Velcro Closures , Drawstring, Buckle , and a Twist Style Lock. There are many pockets on the inside for sorting goods , 1 Main Compartment on the Guide Pack, along with 3 Outside Pockets. The Pinnacle Bag has a Main Compartment and 2 Small Outside
Pockets. However, for all it's good points, for me there is one thing I would change. The Inside Lining is Black, a lighter color would make it easier to locate things. The "Perfect Pack" it's not, however a Great Pack it is. Made in the USA, Excellent Quality in Material and Craftsmanship, Quite, Carries Great, Many Accessories, and Excellent Customer Service ( they have answered the phone every time I have called ). Am I slightly Prejudiced , yes , but I could have spent my money anywhere. After research here and phone calls to other manufactures, some answered , some never returned calls, I went with Nimrod. If you are trying to decide , give them a call, with just a few snaps you can go from a Day Pack to a Full Out Multi Day Elk Hunting Pack. Thanks, Sutty
