Hey guys. I am new to high end backpacks and looking for some advice.
I want a 2 bag setup. My primary use will be one that I can use as a day pack that will haul my sticks and platform for Midwest whitetail hunting and be able to pack meat if necessary.
The other bag is a western backcountry pack. This will also be used for backpack camping with my family.
I have a MR popup 38 currently. It works for me but I don't like how my sticks and platform attach. It is also maxed out carrying a boned out whitetail.
Yesterday I picked up a great deal on a crux frame with a sky talus 6900 bag locally. It is basically new with tags for a great price. I am going to ruck with this frame for a bit before I invest more into this system to make sure I like the frame.
If I stick with this, is anyone running an avail 2200 on a frame? I know it can be done but I haven't seen any pictures or reviews of it used like that. I think that pa k would work well to haul sticks and a saddle platform in the flap on the back.
I am open to other pack options. If this don't work for me I may post it here and try a kifaru.
Thanks for any advice
