Well runner if you are replying to me post then I found one at wholesale sports and was looking at the J34 at Ranch and home here in the tri-cities.

Like the belt on the badlands 2200 better, but hate the height and wet back after a long hunt.

It is comfortable and distributes the weight nicely. You put a whole deer in it and you better have someone there to prop you up if you stumble and go down. The pack turns into a turtle shell at that point.

Picking up archery this year, and looking for a little less bulk. Just picked bought the X1 for my brother for Christmas. Can't wait to see it and see how it works out.
