Easton pickup backpack
« on: June 15, 2013, 10:09:14 AM »
Just saw these at cabelas and I like them! Light, fit well, like the quarter carrying ability. Can hold a lot but still feels small on your back. Anyone Tyrone out?

If you copy and paste the whole thing it works. I don't like it. You can buy an Eberlestock x1 or x2 for the same price and likely have a much better pack. No place to put a holster, the shoulder straps look rinky dink to me. Make me wonder what the rest of it looks like. For $200.00 I'd rather spend that on an established pack. Eberlestock, Badlands, Blacks Creek can all be had for the same money.

I can't find any reviews on the Easton Pickup S13 Hunting Pack anywhere?

I would have to agree with Jackalope, go with an established pack,

FYI, the X2 is an awesome pack.

at cabelas i was trying to campare them and strap wise i could not see that big of a difference and the easton was very comfy. a worker there was helping me and to try it out more he put a 40lb bag of deer corn inside the pack and it fit fine. (its has alot of space.) wieght distrubuted was decent. maybe a little back heavy but you are going to get that with a smaller back like that i feel.

i am looking for a back no wider than me and no taller than my shoulders but still be able to haul a quarter out or do a overnighter in. and hunt with as a archery pack.

i tried on the x2 or x1 and it seemed to wide to me. the horn hunter mainbeam was to high and would bother my neck and head. and the same for the 2200 badlands.
its really hard to spend that much on a pack that is brand new and has seen no reviews. and the same price as those established packs. but the concept of it is really compelling.
