You bought a DAY PACK that weighs 6.8 pounds EMPTY? 

 

Good lookin pack, I'm kinda thinkin you got ripped off.  Every pound counts.

My daypack weighs in at 2.8 pounds, is just a tad smaller that yours. The Badlands Diablo which appears to be quite comparable in size and features to what you have is only 2.8 pounds.

I wonder if that 6.8lbs is with a full H2O bladder? If not, thats a heavy pack empty, water weighs 8.35lbs per gallon..

6.8 pounds... ..that is more than my rifle. nice looking pack though and if it works for you...Awsome deal.

My buddy has this pack.  On the opener of muzzy, we struggled to tie on meat bags for the pack out.  No room for a quarter either.  This sucked even more for me.  If you don't plan on packing out weight or tying rigging off it, it would probably be a pretty nice pack.

Jim had those packs at the Elk calling class that I attended.  I looked it over pretty good, well built, more built for packing elk out than a day pack though. There were pretty spendy but you are buying a "Jim Horn Signature Series".  

It isn't a Badlands bottom line.

[matlockmike]

Guess I was wrong about good for packing meat out.

[JackOfAllTrades]

I'll admit, my day pack is not designed to carry meat out.

ha ha....
seemed pretty light to me with all my gear and a full water pack so im gonna stay with it.
does everything and has all that i need.
i like to be over prepared than under.
im not really cameron haynes hard core yet.

[JackOfAllTrades]

Well, if it seems heavy to me... I hope it's durable for you.

[backwoods_boy]

Yeah it might be a tad heavy, but i like the way it fits and i have packed heavier. So its a upgrade for me. :-)

they look like great packs my local archery shop has them and they seem like a solid product

The canadien is a great pack. Had mine now for 2 years. Only downside is that it isn't water proof. Who cares about weight. It will only make you stronger. Blacks Creek packs are worth the money.
