Cell4soul Report post Posted September 3, 2017 not to go off the thread but i just bought the outdoormans pack and is a great pack, do you guys think is not a good pack, the reason i ask is because i never see it recommended on forums. Nothing wrong with your Outdoorsmans pack, be happy with your decision and go enjoy your hunts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cell4soul Report post Posted September 4, 2017 I just took my Kifaru Nomad with Camp Bag on it's first hike today. I loaded it with all my gear as though I was going on my hunt later this year (all overnight gear and 3 days supplies). The loaded weight was a little over 40 lbs, which included 8 liters of water for a little added weight (I'll be purifying on my backpack hunt, so won't need to pack that much normally). The pack handled the weight incredibly. Prior to this I was using an Eberlestock Just One pack. The Kifaru absolutely blows the Eberlestock away. They aren't even remotely in the same class as far as how comfortable they are when loaded with weight. I only put in about 4 miles round trip and was at about 6,000' elevation to prepare for my hunts....the pack did better than my legs. It was about 96 degrees out, so the heat was the biggest challenge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
