I played the badlands game long enough... My pack spent more time at badlands than it did hunting.  :twocents:

I'm loving my new setup this year.
Kifaru frame, cargo panel and pockets.
In day hunt mode the late side pocket is mounted to the frame and holds harness, rope, insulating layer and rain jacket. Also can add a bladder if needed, but for now, water on the right hip and gps and phone on the left.
The two large pockets on the outside of the panel hold game bags, lights, knives, gloves, snacks, etc.
The small side pocket on the bottom is dedicated first aid.
Get an animal down, load it up and head out.
Over night trips a camp bag is used and still plenty of space to load up camp and a quarter or two.
I also have two extra straps that run side to side of the cargo panel over the large pockets.  These straps hold my bow when the pack is loaded with meat.  The straps rest under the pockets when not is use.
Also, can unbuckle the top two panel buckles and get to the large pocket inside to access layers without having to undo everything.

what pack did you have? I've got about 15 miles with 55lbs and about 5 miles in with 70 lbs. No issues at all, very comfortable pack.

I've got a mystery ranch nice 6500. It has been a bomb proof pack! Big main bag but still compresses well for day hunting. I've given it lots of abuse and it still hasn't had any issues.  :twocents: my badlands broke a couple times with 55-80 lb on it. It isn't fun when hauling a load and a shoulder strap comes completely off.

I am 6'4" and have an Eberle stock just one and love it.  Fits me great and is fully adjustable.  100# loads of gear and meat are comfortable packed correctly.  My dad is 6'5" and has Eberle stock x1a1 and loves it but it is definitely not a great meat hauler but works in a pinch.  X2 is a great pack but not for tall people, no adjustability in shoulder straps.  :twocents:

Is anyone using a Oregon Packworks pack? I have one of their Bino chest rigs and I really like the quiet waterproof cloth

I'm using a Kifaru AMR with a grab it and a guide lid. If I put my bow in the pack you can use the lid and the grab it to hold the bow. This is great for the pack in or out when its dark out but I've learned the hard way the bow needs to stay in your hand when its light out.
