From experience I would say Badlands, hands down. However, I'm seriously considering picking up a Timber Hawk Killshot to try out. It looks like an excellent pack.

There is a ton of different blacks creek packs. I like the fact that some expand and have pouches that pop out to carry your bow. I put the Jim Horn Alaskan to the test last elk season and had 120 lbs of meat in it, The pack expands from 2000- 3000 cubic inches I beleive. I have also used their day packs that expand out to accomodate clothing as you take it off when the day starts to get warm. That style works great on day hunts. The packs have a great warranty on them. I happen to know the owner and he lives right here in Boise. Jay is a great guy and has listened to what hunters want in a pack!!!!!

I beleive that he has a pack for just about any style of hunting that you would want to do. Check out the wild thing that was designed for the double bull blind. We packed in a double bull blind 5 miles with that this year.

I log ALOT of time with a pack on my back and have used many. The bad part about packs, is that you won't know the difference between a good pack and a bad pack until the end of the day. ;0)

I love my badlands 2200. It fits my lonewolf treestand and 4 sticks right in the bat wing and also has enough room to strap all my clothing on it for those long walks in. It has stood up to everything I have put it through.
