I have been spending hours and hours watching videos and reviews of the kifaru packs. To say there are LOTS of options is an understatement. Id like to start working towards a kifaru set up. Id like to start by building something for day runs whitetail hunting. Then add on later with a different bag if necessary for elk and mule deer.
What set ups are yall running for a small daypack for whitetails. I have looked over both frames, and understand the duplex is for heavier loads, and bikini is best for under 80 pound loads from what I read. I also realize the search function helps a lot for what Im doing, and believe me, ive spent a lot of time going through threads....LOL. But sometimes asking a specific question invokes new info and updated posting based on whats currently out there instead of what was working best in the past.
Here is what Ive discovered so far. The EMR2 is a huge pack that can compress down to a daypack mode. From looking at the pics, its still bigger than what Id like for whitetail use. Then there is the nomad, smaller for sure, but appears to me that there is little external entry points which to me is a huge negative. I want access to some gear from the outer pack. What other smaller options are there? I really cant justify buying one of each frame, so Ill have to pick just one. Looking for inputs, and hope everyone had a great Christmas. This place called rokslide is addictive!! And now looking over the kifaaru line....oh crap. Yall say buy once cry once, but I say I think that's impossible with all the kifaru options out there...LOL
From packs to llids to accessory bags....ugg. Post up what your running for your whitetail and smaller set ups. Pics are a plus too!
