I'm in need of a new hunting pack. Does anyone have any experience with the Badlands Superday Pack? OR is there another pack you can recommend that doesn't cost a fortune?
I will mostly be using it for archery hunting and some gun hunting. I like to do all day sits when life/family allows so I usually have a fair amount of things on me.
One of the biggest things I'm looking for in a pack is one good for carrying a DSLR camera/camera equipment.
Thanks!

How much are those?    I have been thru a a few packs, including a badlands that was close to 200.   It seemed like a nice pack but just never fit me right.   Just plain hurt after a couple days of archery with 25 lbs. I do have a long torso at 6-4.

I bought this last year and really like it.  Kuiu ultra 3000, 410.00 complete. Attached File

It sounds like we might the about the same build. The Badlands Superday pack is $199 at Cabelas. I'm hoping to get a pack there because I have over $700 in points but I'm sure I can find something to blow those points on. You must be talking about the same one then.
I appreciate the reply and I'm really liking the looks of this Kuiu pack. A little more than I want to spend but a nice hunting pack is a necessity for me anymore. It's definitely an option I'm looking at.
Thanks!

The suspension and belt on the Kuiu were a selling point for me.
There is a track to fine tune the shoulder harness, and once I found my sweet spot, it was really nice.

The belt system is also a big improvement over my badlands.

I thought I would miss all the little pockets you get on a badlands.  I don’t, and I already had a bunch of small ditty bags to organize storage in the main compartment.    There is are only two easily accessible compartments  on my Kuiu and that is fine with me.
