I like the fact that Seek Outside packs are waterproof but the EXO frame looks like the most comfortable.
I wonder if a guy could mix and match... the frame from EXO and the bag from a different manufacturer.
Is Justin Competent, or just incompetent?
Lol yeah... it’s actually been a few years since I’ve done a pack out especially targeting whitetail they tend to be fairly easy to drag my spot is about one km from the road and on average I can skid them out in about an hour. My moose packer though has seen lots of mule deer action though it can hold an entire big mulie buck bone in just barely. It’s a heavy load but handles it just fine. I leave the bone in because it seems less like dead weight. I did bone out once and it felt so much heavier like a pile of bricks pulling me down. I think meat on the bone distributes the weigh waaay better . I hate making two trips the moose packer is one and done
Very interesting thread ! I know where to go and look for mountaineering packs and try different packs on for sizing . But who carries a wide variety of hunter dedicated packs and frames that you can try on for sizing , Cabela’s ?

Anybody try the Cabela's Alaskan bag with the meat shelf?
Mountaineering bags are not made to pack out meat.
I have an arcterx bora 80 pack. Seemed to work ok. Built super tough too. I’d still use it, but I was able to pick up the seek outside through a work benifit so it was paid for, and it’s way lighter. But the bora packs will carry weight, just have to make sure it fits.
