    I have a number of packs ranging from a Kuiu (115litres) to a Tatonka 55+10.
    The beauty of the bigger pack is you don’t have to strap stuff to the outside when you carry meat inside the pack.
    Of course when you have a bigger pack, you carry more. But you can carry a big and a small load in a big pack, however you can only carry a small load in a small pack.
    I really like the way modern packs can be strapped up tight and used for day hunts.
    If I had to have one pack I think I’d go for 70 litres, that’s the sweet spot for me. I like to put my tent inside my pack, just incase I have to push through some leatherwood or other tight shit.
    Maxx and RV1 like this.
