LOOKING FOR A PACK THAT WILL CARRY A BOW
I AM LOOKING FOR A PACK THAT IS SET UP TO CARRY A BOW. I AM PLANNING AN ARCHERY ELK HUNT AND HAVE BEEN CHECKING OUT A COUPLE, BUT I AM INTERESTED IN FINDING OUT IF ANYONE ELSE USES ONE AND WHICH ONE IS BEST. I' VE LOOKED AT THE BOW/RIFLE PACK FROM CABELA' S AND THE " BOSS" PACK FROM A COMPANY CALLED BACK COUNTRY OUTFITTERS. HAS ANYONE USED THESE OR SIMILAR PACKS, OR EVEN SEEN OR HEARD OF SIMILAR PACKS?

ROBERT OR ARCTICBOWMAN,
IS THIS PACK COMFORTABLE? IS IT AWKWARD WITH THE BOW ON YOUR BACK? I HAVEN' T TRIED ONE ON YET, I' VE JUST BEEN LOOKING IN THE CATALOG. IF THIS IS THE SAME PACK I' VE BEEN LOOKING AT, IT HAS A STRAP THAT HANGS DOWN WITH A POCKET TO SUPPORT THE BOW AT THE CAM. I WAS WONDERING IF THERE IS A PROBLEM KEEPING THE CAM IN THE POCKET.

FULLDRAW,
I CHECKED THE WEBSITE FOR BADLANDS AND THEY SEEM LIKE GREAT PACKS. I ALSO FOUND A DEALER NEARBY SO I WILL GO CHECK THEM OUT SOON. HOW DOES THE 2200 HANDLE YOUR BOW? IS IT AWKWARD AT ALL? DOES IT STAY PUT ON THE PACK? I DON' T KNOW EXACTLY HOW WELL THESE PACKS WORK SINCE I HAVE YET TO GET MY HANDS ON ONE. CAN YOU DRAW YOUR BOW AND SHOOT IT WITH THE PACK ON? SORRY SO MANY ????, JUST WANT TO BE SURE BEFORE I SPEND THE $$$.

I have not personally have not yet used the pack; but called Badlands and asked all these questions.. they have an unconditional $$ back guarantee, so at the very worst I' ll get my money back... I' ve look at a lot of packs, and the badland are made VERY well.... I should receive my pack next week and will let you know how it works...
look at this site.. they sell the pack for 138.00

Cabelas bow and rifle pack. I just got it. Has a lot of space to carry your junk in. It runs about $90.00 for the XL and $100 for the XXL. I got the XL, and it is pretty big. It has a support for you bow or gun. The only thing I don' t like about it is once you have the bow/gun strapped to it It can weave from side to side if you don' t have it snug in tight. Other than that, great buy

There is the Cabela' s brand and the Brookwood bow pack that I have seen offered by cabela' s. I bought the brookwood and I was very pleased with it. The bow did not jostle around, and it has clips to hold a rifle as well. The cam is completely protected on the brookwood, but not on the cabelas pack. Just be carefull when you sit down!
