    I use a hunters elements elevation pack. Its ok, but wouldn't recommend or buy again. The internal frame reduces the ability to stuff the bag full. Also has a tear in the seem and it hasn't really had a hard life to be honest.
    My hunting buddy uses a badlands and he thinks its the business. I have carried it for him while he carried out a deer, and it was comfortable, easy to fill and hard wearing.
    think its this one :

    Cactus if you want it to be bombproof, plus it's kiwi made so it has a feel good factor, oh and they throw in a lollipop if you order online...

    Is that the Traverse? I have one of those, if it is, One Planet makes fantastic kit, and yep, great harness, comfy and robust. Not sure about you, but I find the canvas quite noisy in the bush, was planning on fashioning a fleece cover for it out of an old fleece top or something, maybe that's just going too far. Anyway, great pack.

    Cactus could also be a good option as metioned, but with a similar heavy duty fabric, those too could be noisy.

    I'm a tight wad. I bought a couple of these a couple of years ago for around $100. Find it comfortable and have had a fair load of small game and gear in it on it under it, ....

    mines a 2 in 1 Daypack 30 L

    Which hopefully Scouser will see in action this weekend. Love that I can clip in my own camelback type insert (just awesome)
    The extra zip pouches on the hip belts for extra rounds, silva compass and extra batts for the gps and 2x lamps P7 and head lamp and knife. Being ex mill I've added a couple of old tussock industries DPM ammo pouches that cover mess kit, and important shit like hutchy, survial gear food and and the likes. Just like the old days its pretty much a self contained webbing and I love it...

    Top has the camel back and the cheesecloth bags for hopefully the fallen victim and a Gale carry out belt as this helps my bad back and keeps stuff low on my bum. I think its the best trade off as you can still dump gear for shorter escapades and just wear a bum bag which I always loved...

    Just my 2c...
