Does anyone know the Kifaru Fanny packs? I can’t remember their name but I only see one on their website. Are they limited run or something? Thanks

Scout, hellcat, tail gunner all no longer in production but can be found at a premium. Then the rogan which is in production.

Kifaru had limited runs of all three (Tailgunner, Scout, Hellcat) last year. The Scout is I believe the only one of them that had stays. I considered it as it also pairs well with a .5.

I think the Blacks Creek Cure shown above by @kbetts offers more function for a saddle hunter. Those other choices are just big fanny packs imo.

You are correct. The bag seperates like a MR pop up. Platforms fit well. The LWCG was a little big....the predator fits like it was made for it. It's all about the load lifters and that sweet platform slot. The thing is made to carry weight when needed.

Can you take some pics and measurements please. There is next to nothing on The Cure bag that i can find. Not even the inside.

It's not the best, but you can get somewhat of an idea of the pack from this Blacks Creek Video on loading their Cure Lumbar Pack with meat.

Does the bag come off completely? I had an idea to leave it in Frame load hauling mode and attach it to the frane of my .5 and then take the bag off in the tree if that is even possible.

Looks like the Hellcat has been listed from $250-$300 on Rokslide with $280 often being the mark.
