Yes it is more like a duffel bag. Now the even though the 44 has both a zipper pocket and slash mesh pocket on the inside I still run the ultra light pullouts. I have a large for clothes such as extra pair of socks, tee shirt, underwear and a long sleeve. Same goes with food. XL pullout hold's my food in ziploc bags for the days. Then when i get to where I'm going to camp all those can easily be pulled out and left in camp. I have the E&E rigged up so that if I'm archery hunting and need to make a final approach with out my pack I can detach and still have everything I need to take care of a animal. Basically it has the best of both worlds in my opinion.
Whats the biggest chunk of meat you've put in it?
