Kifaru Dilemma

[Trumpkin The Dwarf]

Do you prefer the Styler Cargo Panel or the Stryker XL? I’m thinking about using Wild Edge Stepps instead of a platform and I’m also using DRT to climb, so I might need slightly more bag space for the extra ropes and WE stepps. And how do you use Stryker system for Elk hunting?

I've used the Reckoning for everything the past five or six years. Stand/saddle hunting for whitetails, high country archery hunts (I can fit 12-14 days in it with just a guide lid), late November rifle, it will do it all. But it's not a perfect pack. There is no perfect pack, in my opinion. Just perfect for your situation. In my case I needed a do it all pack, not a specialized pack.

FWIW, I also went the Wild Edge step route and had to sell them. Just don't. Get four of the Hawk Helium mini sticks, and use a carry as you go one step aider.

The Hoodlum is also a great pack. It can do it all. From day hunts to 2 week long hunts

The frame is the expensive part, if you will, the bags are interchangeable and for the quality that you get out of a Kifaru you won’t ever be mad that you went with an American made pack.

The products pretty much sell themselves. I don’t see a whole lot of marketing with Kifaru. The fact that they are 100% made in the USA is a huge deal for me. Are there any other packs 100% made in America?
