Indeed. Following this with interest. Soon time to retire the one I've used since 1995.

Maybe I am just picky but asking which pack is good for you is like asking if “this 3 piece suit” fits you. Are you going to haul meat on it? What’s going to be in it? Any chance you get go into a store that has people that can be a help. If it’s not going to haul meat there are a ton of options that are non hunting brands. Fit wise… no one is going to be able to help you on a forum with that I don’t think.

I ordered one I saw in Sports Afield; the Nextgen Outfitters Whitetail Caddy. Only $100, and is nicely laid out. Even has side pockets that will hold my quiver. My old one made me root around in a couple of bottomless pits for stuff, but this one has lots of nice pockets. A good feature is that it will stand up by itself, not flop over this way and that. Has a padded panel against your back.
Just need to figure out what goes where…. and remember it all.
What fresh Hell is this?

I just ordered a Eberlestock “Bandit” with a rain cover. I like how it has a bunch of internal pouches to organize things. I hate stuff bouncing around.

I'm a Badlands Super Day guy. I like the straps, I like the waistband, the pockets are good and the back padding is also pretty good. The straps to carry my rifle are something I wouldn't be without. I don't put meat in it so YMMV.

That looks like a great little pack for someone who doesn't need a frame or belt to haul heavier loads.
