Favortie hunting backpack/pack? What all do u carry with you?

I have a Kuiu bag that I really like. Don’t remember exactly which one

I have a redhead bag from bass pro or cabelas that I bought about 12 years ago. It is a soft bag so it doesn’t make any noise, i have had the zippers replaced twice and will keep doing so till the vag falls apart

Fanny pack only. Always have a climber on my back. I would never need the space a backpack provides.
Knife
Two lights
Thermocell
Release and arm guard
Pull up rope
Glove or gloves depending on temperature

My backpack is simple since my son hunts with me now

I always have a blanket and some hand warmers
Several waters

Then I go to the pantry and grab every snack in there and stuff then in every extra space I have and then stare in amazement as he eats the entire time we are hunting

I finally broke down and actually bought a good pack that will last me a lifetime. Its a Kifaru Shape Charge w/ Sherman pocket. In it there's always
Wet wipes
thermacell if early season
Compass
2 headlamps
2 knives
puffy jacket
first aid kit
kill kit (gloves,2 knives,sharpener,paracord,small piece of tyvek)
2 ways to start a fire
protein bars
water
flagging tape

Bino harness carries
bino's
rangefinder
3 extra rounds
wind checker
lens cloth

Never forget toilet paper

Depends on the type of hunting. Spot and stalk if I'm getting miles back in the woods I have an old northface 75 L that I can carry out a deer in. I'll have it loaded with a bit more.
Water, extra water and water purification.
Highly nutritionally dense snacks
Rain Gear
Flashlight with extra batteries.
kill kit-knives, game bags, gloves
extra ammo
Binos and rangefinder
compass
battery pack for phone
extra lighter
first aid
sometimes a tripod for binos
roll of electrical tape
flagging
wet wipes
Small diameter rope

If I'm going to be within 1.5 miles from the truck on my local farm.
Small drawstring style backpack
Dr. Pepper
Book
Snacks if I'm doing a long sit
kill kit sans game bags
headlamp
thermacell early in the year
wet wipes

I just carry a 10 dollar academy back pack. I don’t like tons of little compartments.

The only place that has a reserved place is my light

I carry

Knives
Water bottle
Binos
Thetmacell
Bug spray
Snacks and apples
Hot hands
SD cards
Extra orange vest
Gloves


An a whole arsenal of butt wiping stuff. TP, wet wipes, napkins.

For Western hunts, Badlands 2200. It’s a big day pack that can also haul out an elk quarter. I packed out my Wyoming mule deer with it last fall.
Back home, I use what’s almost like a camo purse. I like it for bowhunting.
During gun season, I’ll switch to a backpack.

In my bag now:

Thermocell
Two flashlights
Wet wipes
Flagging tape
Glow stick - to mark where deer is at night while I go back for 4wheeler
Knife
Compass
Water bottle

since I'm 90% of the time I'm taking the ATV within 2-3 miles of camp & climbing into a box stand with an old office chair, I got an old black backpack from college (LL Bean maybe??). It's nice when I want to take my time walking in or walking out to stalk something.

Always in the bag:
thermacell & extra pads
water, snacks, powerbar
extra knife, extra flashlight, extra headlamp, extra AA batteries
USB battery pack for phone & GPS
wyoming knife & surgical gloves for field dressing
ziplock bag with license, tags, 2-3 golf pencils (Lake Bruin CC), zip ties
extra ziploc bags for tag when ziptied to horns/foot
lots of handwarmers
thermal hat & gloves in a ziplock
orange vest

Sometimes in the bag:
bino's & rangefinder if I'm going to a pipeline/powerline/turnrow
maybe reading material if its gonna be a long sit
bag of boudin or sausage if its a long sit
maybe a little buddy heater if its gonna be super cold (cancels out thermacell & I keep spare 1# coleman tanks in the box stands).
