Default Need help on a good backpack!!

I was wondering if anyone could tell me of some good backpacks or fanny packs? Im looking for one thats not to big and not to small. One that will carry about a days worth of hunting gear like binoculars, small clothing items like gloves and head gear, knives, flashlight, etc. I dont walk much on my hunts, usually just to my stand or ground blind. Some good advice would be helpful. thanks!

Iwould recomendthe Cabelas Elite Scout pack. It has worked great for me. It has a lot of room, well made,and it has a reasonable price tag.

I have had one of these for about 7 or 8 years now. Its comfortable, versatile and very functional and quiet. I love it and would hate to do with out it. It carries my gun or bow on long hikes in and I can strap it to my climber easily if I am hauling that in with me.

Cabelas bow and rifle pack works great for me. Well constructed and very ergonomic, when full can hardly notice the weight.

I have the medium sized camelback backpack....and i love it. I do lots of still hunting and walking around, so the hydration bladder is a plus so that you dont have to fumble around for a water bottle. Also, everything you listed that you want to put in it is in mine.....it fits in there with a bit of room to spare. Hope this helps

I use Badlands packs. They work great!!! They are so versatile and well thought out. They are very durable and can be used for many things. I use mine hunting elk out west and whitetails in the east, just good packs.

I have the Camelback Striker......around 70 bucks......so i beleive it is a lot less than the Badlands packs.
