Kuiu Venture 1800, modified lonewolf sticks, and a scout on a stick. Very happy with its packability.
I love it. Been having it for a few years now. Packs a deboned doe well also. I never had a tenzing or badlands pack last this long. It's tough and carries a load well without a lot of BS added to it.Cool set up. Got that pack last year and have really enjoyed it so far. For the gear I carry and the way I hunt, I have yet to come up with anything I would want different in a pack.
I've been toying with the idea of a scout for those sits 4 hours or less. I like having your climbing method also be your platform. Are you able to get off a weak side shot?Kuiu Venture 1800, modified lonewolf sticks, and a scout on a stick. Very happy with its packability.

Swampsynper could you give a little more detail on the mods and the scout mounting?
How much more weight does it add putting the scout on there?
I don’t know. I don’t care about ounces more than bulk and ease of set up. I’m sure you can look up the scout and find it’s weight.
Are you putting an extra strap on the scout to help with side pressure?I haven’t hunted with it yet. Our season opens this weekend. But practicing in the yard, any tree basketball size are smaller, I was able to take most shots without the aid of any squirrel steps on the side. It’s because the scout on a stick stands off the tree more than a ring of steps or wild edge stepp. If you are really confident in your ninja saddle moves, there is a lot you can do with a scout.

Rotating standoffs on your cut down lone wolf with single steps....using an insert, or washers for spacing?
