I suppose anyone at any hunting forum will suggest Badlands 2200.
Persinally I like Eberlestock x2 and it worked well as a day-pack. But if you go minimalist and push it on some space you can turn it even into a 2 night pack. You have to get creative, but it can open so much space it's possible. 4 years ago it costed 50$ less, and it's still a bit more expensive that the mentioned Badlands 2200. But it's still a great hunting pack, carries well if its empty or fully loaded. That said, I've used the side pockets to carry my .22 on a day hunt.
FYI, here it is compared to other daypacks https://wildproofgear.com/best-daypack-for-hunting/
Mystery Ranch Pintler
I got the Mystery Ranch pop up 28 in optifade colour for my daypack, it has a meat shelf and is really comfortable also lifetime warranty.
