what was your backpack last season?

[bowtech3dhunter]

Nomad on a bikini frame last year and this year as well. It's worked out great for me.

 

[luke moffat]

Duplex with emrII for me last year.

I like your style sir!

 

[dotman]

UL Duplex and Carg Panel for me.

 

[gelton]

My "custom chopped" dt1 has been with me the last three seasons and still going strong. The new frame is tempting but unnecessary as this combo treats me just fine.

2015 exo 3500. Liked it but wanted to try a Kifaru

Sold Exo and ordered a new Kifaru UL 26" frame with cargo panel, guide lid and few pockets. Going a add a camp bag soon. Really loving this setup so far. Just been using it on a few short hikes so far but can't say enough about it. Awesome setup for my style

Kifaru duplex hunting frame with nomad, guide lid, grab it II and or 35l dry bag.

Can you post some pics of your setup? I'm gonna be ordering a new pack soon and was also looking at setting up a cargo panel and pockets as well.

Better with pictures....



Still using a SG Sky 7400. Bivy mode all summer and full size for packing animals in the fall.

 

[tttoadman]

SG Solo with XTL or long hunter lid. I just picked up a Terminus off the classifieds. That should drop some of my hillbilly bags off on long outings with the SG. I finally got a proper belt for my old Gen 1 Duplex. I have a MT warrior bag on it already. Been putting miles on the treadmill. I finally feel like I have some options so I can see what really floats my boat.

I have had the SG since 2013 and totally love it. The Kifaru is definitely bulkier to wear, but I can really see the weight carrying ability and hip comfort now that I have the correct belt.

It all gets used at my house. Whatever I am not using gets stolen by my brother or my kid.

SG solo spring and summer then back to a MR Marshall in the fall. On the kifaru bandwagon now, so far so good.

Stone Glacier Solo

Hind quarter, backstraps, all butchering tools, Stihl 026

All day hunt gear, spotter, tripod etc. 4 mule deer quarters and all cut meat.


Lots of heavy and comfortable miles yet again this year!

 

[oldgoat]

26"Duplex with Nomad, Long Hunter Lid, Grab It II and various pockets. Bought my wife the new 22"UL, and Cargo Panel, really liking her setup, I might pony up for that frame if the over time is available this year. And save my duplex for backup and my step son to use if he gets into elk hunting with me and his mom.

 

[mt100gr.]

UL Duplex, Mountain Warrior, and guide lid. This set up was plenty capable for camp and animal packouts. Even late in the year when single digits demanded quite a bit of extra gear. I think I am going to try the Argali, however, as I don't mind the extra space and it will save me almost a pound just on the bag. The Mountain Warrior is my first "one big bag" style pack and there were a few times I would have liked it a bit bigger.

I like how you set that up

 

[husky390]

Stone Glacier Sky7400. Only thing I wish it had was molle webbing on the belt.

 

[BackcountryMT]

MR Longbow, this thing has been a work horse for me. No complaints

 

[Bmcox86]

2014 EXO 3500 and a kuiu icon pro 1850 with just suspension for quick day trips. Picking up a duplex from another member on Thursday to pair with highcamp 7000 for longer trips and for packing in my float tube to a few lakes. Prefer the EXO over anything I've owned so far though.
