Well my $10 game winner is giving out so im in the market for a day pack. My qualifications are that it is
1. quiet
2. fairly water proof
3. durable
4. lite weight (i hunt public land and usually its a bit of a hike to get in)
it will need to be big enough to hold the following items
-range finder
-binos (most of the time i wont bring them)
-hunting knife
-scent killing spray
-a couple trashbags
-flashlight/ headlamp
-a couple zip ties
-grunt call/ rattling horns (again most of the time they don't make the trip)
-pull rope
-dead down wind wipes
-rain suit (Cabelas MT050 GoreTex, its packable but does take up some room. only if the forecast calls for rain)
-camo jacket and pants (i dress at the stand after i cool off)
- jerky if i plan on an all day sit.
i try to minimize what i bring but i will admit im still working out my system. (i packed way more crap last year ) so maybe my pack should be bigger than what most would call a day pack?? Maybe i'm packing to much?
I'm leaning towards something with a suspension system either internal or external but this is new territory for me. This pack will be designated to archery hunting only.
Thanks for the replies
