Target weight backpack hunting?

Kodiak 12 x 16 tent

Has anyone seen this tent? Looks pretty solid at the $1200 price point. It also has the option to add 8' x 8' rooms on the ends. The video showed up in my Youtube feed yesterday. I did not see a setup video on it so it is hard to determine how easy or rough it is. I am not really in the...

WTB WTB Men's Small Backpack 45 liter

I am looking for a men's small backpack for a 12 year old boy. Hate to buy new as fast as they grow. We packed his sleeping bag and pad in a 38 liter I have and there is not much room. He is about 5' 2" and I tried to measure the torso as Osprey suggests and it is around 16.5". I am looking...

Howdy

I have been lurking for about a year so I figured I would finally create an account. I do post on some Texas hunting sites. I am considering a Western states hunt this year so I will be reading and learning a bunch on this site. I am currently in South Texas where it is 35 degrees and they...
