Thanks fellas!

Bitteroot: Yes! Really enjoying the Kowa. Couldn't ask for any more from a scope. I wouldn't change a thing about it.

Wow, two huge bucks and great pics. Backpack hunting is the way to consistently kill trophy animals. Great job!

No matter how many times or where I see those bucks and read that story. I cant stand but to be envious of your season. Congrats!

How do you like your Sitka pack?

Congrats on some great deer! I have a question. I assume you are going to headmount your Dad's deer, but I see you cut it off at the neck. Are you planning on getting a different cape for him?

Thanks again guys.

Cisco: I really like the Sitka pack. I was skeptical of it's meat hauling capabilities going into the trip, but it proved to be more than plenty capable of everything I threw at it. I think my first trip out was about 115 lbs. Ya it felt extremely heavy, but it was stable and easy to adjust all the straps to shift the load from shoulders to hips when one got tired. All the traps and buckles make it easy to carry gear on the outside when you have the inside stuffed with meat. I also like that it compresses down enough to be worn as a daypack for short hunts close to home, and the pockets on the waste belt are really nice for carrying your rangefinder, GPS, windchecker, and extra shells close without having them in your pants pocket.
