Love my Badlands Superday, has everything I need. Sticks strap to the bottom and platform of the face of the pack. Plenty of pockets too.
I am using the Eberlestock X2 pack and love it. This year I did switch to Lone Wolf Custom Gear double step sticks and still using the Predator Platform. Although last year I ran with 3 Hawk Helium sticks along with the Predator. The X2 pack handles the load with ease and then some. It is a medium size frame pack and weighs a few pounds but is nicely adjustable with the shoulders straps and waste belt. Definitely works well for saddle hunting.I am new to saddle hunting and need to replace my backpack. I'm using a predator platform and four hawk helium sticks and want to be able to hook all of it to or carry it all in my pack. I am fairly minimalist so I don't need anything huge, but enough for my equipment plus binos, rangefinder, calls, knife, tags, etc. What backpacks do you like best for saddle hunting?
Doesn't look like it's got a good spot to strap on sticks. Not sure if that outside pocket would work? Looks like the top doesn't open, and it kinda hinges off the bottom? The picture on kuiu website, not sure how that tripod is staying in there. I'm sure it's a quality pack. But I really am liking my venture with the 4 straps that are able to attach the sticks to, and cinch everything up nice and tight.What do y’all think about the new Kuiu divide?

As a mid-sized hunting day pack, the Divide 1500 offers essential organization and hydration capability for day hunts and scouting trips. Its expandable Divide pocket is lined with abrasion and water-resistant fabric, making it ideal for stowing extra clothes or gear. It features a zippered...www.kuiu.com

As an update, I gave the Kuiu Divide 1500 a try and I really like it. I think it may end up as my preferred SRT or one stick bag, but here it is with a predator, five EWO sticks, and some stuff in it just to see how it feels. Obviously the 5th stick here is a bit much but its always the odd one out in my EWO set.
I have the exact same pack...freqkin love itView attachment 37650
Here’s how my buddy carries 4 hawks on a $25 backpack from midway. He can strap a platform to the back too.
These straps are the real deal. I have four 22" and two 12" and I love them.“Voile” rubber strap from Amazon. 15” length I think.
