How many on here use lightweight packs instead of "hunting" packs for your fall adventures?
I have used just about every kind of hunting pack known to man and really cannot stand the weight of them. My wife has been using a Golite Pinnacle ( 3 lbs) for the last 3-4 seasons and has carried some crazy loads in it and has not even had a seam come loose...I'm starting to think that that might be the way to go as well.
I have had Eberlestock, Mystery Ranch, Badlands, Blacks Creek and KUIU...so far the KUIU has been the best, but its still 5+ lbs of empty weight.
I was curious about the Kifaru UL series but the price is WAY to much $$$ for me to just try one out.
Golite has some new packs in there 2012 line and the new Jam 70 has caught my eye, 2 lbs empty weight
sure beats 7-9 lb empty weight of the normal hunting packs i use and its only $139 ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
