Last year i weighed my back pack at 18 pounds. between 1/2 gallon of water scent calles camera tripod for said camera mag light knife this that. It was to much. Heck i bought a game cart to pull everything in between that stuff my pop up and my bow it was to much to carry. Now i have my scent scent killer spray calles, no camera this year, and a few other little things. It is nice and light. I do not wear my binos and range finder i clip the pack for them on my ladder stand and keep the ranger finder in my pocket.
