Blacks creek makes a nice pack

I have a rancho Safari that I really like. It is fleece and is super quiet. I use it about 70-80 days per year and had it for several years and still going.

The Blacks Creek packs are interesting. I had never heard of them before.
As I've looked at everyone's recommendations I've noticed a big variation in the weights of the different manufacturers packs.

Bison Gear for me. Pricey but will last a lifetime. Check their web site for style that fits your needs. Good luck and be safe.

I just did my 1st rove/hike with my new Tenzing (TZ 1250 lumbar pack. 1st impression is I love it! When I was done shooting, I stowed the recurve in the adjustable bucket, and pulled out my blackdiamond trekking poles for the hike out. I was very please with the adjustability, and the way it rode. One thing I wish they would have done is added a rain fly, like their camera pack. In the NW nothing is water proof! A little more protection for durring late season would have been cool!

The link below has more details!

I've never looked at the Horn Hunter packs. I like some of their unique features.

Gray Wolf makes a really nice one. I like the buck suede.

I have learned much about day packs in the past two days...

Blacks Creek. I got the 1250 Cure this past year and it's about as perfect (for me) as it gets. My back doesn't get hot, plenty of space to secure stuff, half frame with some load capability, and made in the USA.

Pull up RIBZ on line. You load your water, tabs, extra hat ,gloves, camera, gps, power bars, flashlight poncho and emergency kit and such. It will be there when you drive or sit without removing it. Take a small back pack for other stuff if you like. Mine is always loaded, ready, and you can shoot with it on. Also readjust to ride high if you like cross country biking. Out here, it does not have your back sweating in the heat during August deer hunts.

I love the packs I've had from Hill People Gear. Most comfortable straps on the market and made in the USA last time I checked.

Great post!

Learned about the Alder Maine Canvas packs from RonP's reply and will have them make me a pack. I never cease to be amazed what I pick up on when reading this forum.

Take a look at the Rancho Safari Catquiver VI ... it is a very comfortable day pack with a good hip belt and chest strap. Lots of room for storage and easy to get to pockets on the hip belt. I do not use the quiver just the pack. On mine I have a water bottle pocket on the left side of the hip belt but I have seen models with zipper pockets both right and left, I prefer having the water bottle pocket. Fleece material is very quiet.
