    Honestly not sure man. I've had Colorados(much stiffer), Idahos(10" boots), and these. Never tried Nevadas. Looking at their website, looks like flex rating and such are about the same, so I'd say they're probably pretty similar but check out their site yourself and decide. I dont want to...

    Anyone ever flew with their frame pack as their "personal item"?

    Thanks for all the input guys. Sounds like I’ll probably just have a second check bag or gate check my carry on and carry the SG to put in the overhead bin

    Anyone ever flew with their frame pack as their "personal item"?

    I fly pretty regularly and I’m certainly not “one of those people that makes it more than a pain in the ass”. I just haven’t ever done it with hunting. My problem isn’t with the cost at all bud. The problem is that I have had my fair share of stuff mishandled, bags delayed/not transferred, and...

    Anyone ever flew with their frame pack as their "personal item"?

    I'm really trying to avoid checking a full size suit case. I was going for rolling carry on, frame pack, rifle case No way in heck would I check my bare bag. If it came down to it, I'd take my frame pack for the carry on and check my rolling carry on. Again, just prefer to not check more than...

    Anyone ever flew with their frame pack as their "personal item"?

    good point. I guess that really would be the worst case. Check my rolling carry on and use the SG pack as my carry on.

    Anyone ever flew with their frame pack as their "personal item"?

    On deltas website they dont explicitly list a size. Below is the copy and paste directly off their site for personal item criteria. I know I may be reaching a little on the small part but they dont list dimensions and I'm almost positive I could get it under the seat with no issues as long as...

    Anyone ever flew with their frame pack as their "personal item"?

    Like the title says, anyone flown with their frame pack as their personal? I've driven to hunt out of state but never flown. I think I'm going to fly back out to Montana for a week with my rifle since I sadly didnt punch my tag during archery. I planned to check my rifle, take my carry on...

    What changes are you making this season?

    2nd year elk hunting. Going later this year(not because we went too early last time, just how timing worked out) Changed to a different boot. I have recurring issues with my left ankle. Going to use a 10" boot and see if it helps over the course of the trip. Been doing a lot of stretches and...

    Guys that drive a long ways to hunt, what are your less common(but important) pieces of gear/tools you're sure to keep in the truck?

    Im glad someone else found value in it besides me. I'm not a frequent poster, but this one felt worth the discussion.

    I dont go anywhere without ibuprofen haha They're terrible for you but I also keep an emergency supply of Prednisone due to recurring tendonitis I've had for years and/or to knock out any small respiratory infection fast if needed.

    Guys that drive a long ways to hunt, what are your less common(but important) pieces of gear/tools you're sure to keep in the truck?

    Have a couple compressors but didnt have a jump box. found this neat little contraption for anyone else that may be in the market. Seems like it could be good for an emergency, always-in-the-tool box device...

    My '23 tundra still has both, but I prefer using the 120V outlets it has

    We leave in 2 weeks to head to Montana for our elk hunt. Its 400 miles to my friends house, then another 2040 miles to Montana from there. I'll put every bit of 5000 miles on my truck the last 2 weeks of September and first week of October. Our last trip in 2022 was smooth sailing with only...

    Which bear spray to buy

    If you're carrying it because you have to, but prefer to use your sidearm, just get whatever is cheapest and/or most readily available. It's all just pepper spray on steroids. Take your pick.
