So when you have the elk or whatever down, are you putting meat inside the bag of pack? Or do you have a batwing style? I've been using batwing style packs and love them. The simplicity when it's dark etc is what I like.
Where am I going? I picked up a Kifaru Nomad for 80 bucks a few years back, but have never bought a frame. I'm contemplating a new pack and really want to stick with what I know and like, but wanted to hear about the pros and cons.
I'm not really a fan of Kifaru's lumbar pad as it always seems to pull my pants down (partners pack) so I'm not sure If I tough my goat hunt out this year with my 2200 or make the swtich. In my 50's, not sure how much more big hunts I will have, so not all crazy about investing in a pack as I've used the same pack for Goats, Sheep, etc already, and it worked fine, just looking at alternatives.
Maybe just go with Kelty If I can clean it up from all the bear grease.
