I just want to say you deserve more subs/likes. You are a very likable presenter that’s not afraid to tell it like it is good or bad. Not just this video but all your stand reviews as well. Keep it up!!
I appreciate that! I figure if I stay the course will get there eventually! Glad you enjoy the video.
Great video as always. I am a pack fanatic. Got more than I care to say. Lol. I always go back to one. The Eberlestock X2. My hunting gear as well as camera equipment fit perfectly. It is literally the most comfortable pack that I’ve put on my back. Again great job and happy hunting.
The X2 is on my short list of packs I have to try!! Thanks for stopping by!
@MichiganGreatOutdoors try the eberlestock x2 and you'll fall in love.fits perfect.
Great review. Love the way you did the process from tail gate to tree back to shop and to showing us other packs for a great visual demonstration. Keep up the great videos Love your stuff. Yes you should have a ton more subs by now but keep it going they will come.
Glad it was helpful and thanks for the kind words! Will get there eventually!
Fantastic video, love the field reviews nobody is doing these!!! Great Idea!!
Thank you! Plan on doing more of this style review!
Glad your sticking up for us big boys because I have the same gripe with backpacks!
For sure!! I ran thr cays 2.0 all last season but that shoulder strap width always bothered me. So i started looking at alternatives, with shoulder width spacing needing to be at a premium.
Awesome. I've watched all the other reviews so many times and none of them really show the inside of the pack up close like you did when you were on the table with it. I knew the inside would be small. I'm actually planning to only run my layers in the inside of the pack so I think I'll be ok. I hunt in east TX so it doesn't get that cold. Typically only run a hoodie or kuiu guide Jacket when it's really cold. Then my Puffy vest and bottoms should still fit in there since they are down. But I like the idea of just compressing a bigger jacket on the outside. Might also help buffer the sound of sticks clanking as well. I can't wait to get mine. I ordered Dec 8th.
Oh this will be phenomenal for east texas!! Thanks for stopping by 👊
The star of the show is the 14 inch minis. I have the original lone wolf sticks, the LWCG doubles steps, and the 14 inch LWCG mini sticks. The 14 inch minis are amazing. I run them with a gen 2 predator platform for public land hunts. They are perfect for mobile hunting! The Tethrd pack is nice, but not worth the price.
As always, your reviews are awesome and valuable to mobile hunter. Best reviews on RUclips.
Im a big fan of the 14's too, they pack so nice and you can darn near get 15feet with them with 4 cable aiders.
Great review. Do you think if it was more efficient in the tree than your wolf pack, since you're use the .5, would you use it since you're not actually carrying it into the wood?
No, I think the wolf pack is a hair more user friendly for me in the tree. Id only use the FAS Pack for saddle hunts.
I have used mine probably around 2 dozen times. Im not as big of a guy as you but I stand 5’9” 225lbs. Broad shoulders like yourself and felt the same way at least in the late season with a moderately heavyweight jacket on! I think for the most part your field review I can completely say was spot on. Did you run it with the aluminum stay in it or just the sheet?
I ran it with the sheet, Its definitely a nice pack. Its not like its miserable to use just after a bout 3/4 a mile it was wearing on me a little. I think its something that maybe was just overlooked in the design phase, Id say if they came out with an XL version for big boys id be all over it!! Functionality in the tree its phenomenal as well as I enjoy the pockets and how they are setup.
I’d like to buy this pack but as you said the back straps scare me. But if they came out with an XL version that would be awesome. However, id hate to see them add a waist belt to it because those aren’t my favorite lol great review
Great review buddy. Was thinking about this pack but waiting for reviews. You might have convinced me.
Glad I could help, Ill make a more detailed review in a few weeks.
I like to see you do a comparison of the Sumpter and FAS Pack for saddle hunting. i am debating between the two.
Will add that to the list!!
Knowing Tethrd, I wouldn’t be surprised to see them come out with an XL version eventually with a waist belt and more capacity. Looks solid, but without a belt and at this limited size I can’t justify the cost. Nice video as always!
Thats a good point, I actually like the fact it doesn't have a waiste band. Just wish it was a hair wider up top on the shoulder straps. In the tree it was great, not too big. Everything easily accessible. Solid little pack!!
@@MichiganGreatOutdoors Kuiu Day packs have the best system IMO. They have a solid waist belt but it’s removable. I hunt without it for day hunts but if I’m planning to pack out meat I can throw it on and pack some heavier loads out. Not having one is awesome but when you need one, you need one.
@@galinswigart I agree kuiu system is super versatile. I run two different kuiu setups. One pack I run the pro 1850 with suspension system with or without the waist belt (It's your choice) and the other pack. I run the kuiu pro suspension system with carbon fiber frame, pack load hauler and a pack accessory pouch. I do like the versatility and I get to choose which way I want to run and hunt in the woods (Quick lite hunt or long all day hunts). 🎯
@@galinswigart Just so you know, the Compression kit doubles as a waist belt for a heavy pack out...exactly like you mentioned. We did that on purpose so you can easily pop the 1" compression straps around your waist using the waist belt tabs at the bottom of the shoulder strap connections. Most guys will never need the waist belt in a fixed position for a small pack like the FAS Pack. But...it's there if you need it.
Also...a little birdie told me that an XL version just might be in the works. You know us too well :) :) :)
i want to add my fas pack to a frame and basically make it like the mystery ranch pop up 28. i have a pop and love how you use the pack to hold everything close to your back. just really like the fas pack configuration
The Configuration is the best part, So far im really digging this pack.
Felt the same way as a larger framed guy with broad shoulders. Def built for smaller guys. But I have used it on multiple hunts and do love the pack.
They did a good job! 👍 I need to take mine out a few more times.
Really considering buying this pack for next season, be interesting to see different ways to pack Beast Sticks with it.
Ill make sure to add that in my next video with it.
Always love your videos, your honest thanks. Gods bless
Thanks bud.
How was your compression kit? My small ones had the same connector on both ends. Made it difficult to attach predator pak. Cant find best way or rite way. How did you attach yours? A video on that would be great thanks.
So I got the predator pack with mine assuming my lwcg fix would fit and it doesnt lol, So I had to order a different platform pack. Ill spend some time this weekend playing with it and seeing if I can get it to mount and if I can video it.
Nice set up! What size Kuiu proximity stuff did you order in relation to your size? I’m thinking about getting some stuff and was wondering what to get. I don’t like my stuff too tight and like to layer. Would you recommend that gear?
Im a fan anything kuiu, I went with a 2 xl coat, fits me pretty good. Always size up with kuiu is what I found. I have the super down vest in 2xl and its still a little tight, but my super down pro ultra coat my wife got me for Christmas is an xl and fits pretty decent. I think a 2 xl in that might have been too big actually....
Did you use the aluminum stay to fit to your back? If so what are thoughts on it? Did it help at all? Looked like the backpack swayed a lot.
yes, in that video I had the aluminum stay in it. I failed to mention that and yes it did sway a lot. I think its because of how narrow the pack is at the top. I do think its a really nice pack, just wish it was wider at the top of the shoulder straps. Ill have an in depth video out soon.
I know your not a xop fan but what do you think about the retro grade and cold world that’s coming out soon for a premium price?
I think it looks pretty nice, I wanna get my hands on it for sure. See what its all about!
@@MichiganGreatOutdoors cool man it definitely looks good for the price point and it’s about the same size as the .75 but 150 cheaper so I’m kinda interested in it
You need to get the e Berle stock bandit and do a side by side comparison. One “high end” and the other is the “budget” coming is over half the cost and is a VERY similar pack….plus also I want the bandit so I’m biased 😅
Its on my list of packs to try!! Just gotta sell some stuff to snag it
@@MichiganGreatOutdoors sell me the Wolfpack…or pocket arm😏😉
Lol, u look like me packing out in the mornings. U forgot the jetboil. Lol, u know that I am a thin guy. I have been having trouble with the same strap issue on my shoulder with other companies. I'm wondering if you can use my LWCG 17" double steps in it? Yr wife spoiled you with that jacket. Great info, brother.
I think the 17s would work fine but they would stick out higher, the pack kinda runs high on your back anyway. Its a nice pack but the more I use it that width might be an issue for me. Yeah, I cant believe she got me that! We were supposed to only have a 100$ limit for Christmas for each other and she far exceeded that!! I will get her back for her birthday.
Great Review. Keep em coming.
Thanks Greg, when is the XL version gonna drop? Wanna let me trade this one in for an XL? LOL
@@MichiganGreatOutdoors I got you.
Hit me up when we launch it.
@@G2Outdoors👆this still in the works?
@@mattbaldridge8945 that and more
How do you think the full length beast sticks would work with the pack? Thanks
ohh man I need to try them!!
Another great review, brother. Like someone else said in the comments, the lack of a waist belt... or at least the option to add one is the main detractor for me with this pack (or ANY treestand/saddle hunting pack). For me personally, if I'm carrying any kind of load on my back, a waist belt is a necessity as a mobile hunter. It just makes hiking long distances with my gear much more comfortable when all the weight isn't solely on my shoulders. That's just my preference. Size wise, this pack seems about perfect though. Looking forward to more in depth review.
Depending on your terrain a waiste belt can be life saver. I tend to not use mine, so I prefer not to have one.
There are tab loops at the bottom you can add one. I used one of the compression straps and it worked great for me riding above my hip bones
FlinginAiros is right. It comes with a waist belt option in the Compression Kit. I guess we didn't do a very good job of explaining that :( Sorry about that.
The Wolfpack has nice wider wider spacing between the straps at the top.
yes they do, the wolf pack fits me stange too, I mostly just hang it off my stand.
I really enjoy the xop striker evolution pack! Great for the price point and function!
I might have to check that one out.
I love my cays and the platow from trophy line
Cays is s beast. I still have mine. Never tried the Platow
What is the best way to run by a double step set of sticks on that pack? I don’t think my Novix mini double steps would ride very good like that.
You would have to use the supplied compression straps.
Looks like a nice little pack
It sure is! Thanks for stopping by.
They have a good deal right now and includes a bunch of stuff. Looks good and solid price. I absolutely love my Eberlestock X2 and Trophyline Platow pack tho. Wife would kill me if I bought another haha
That x2 looks really nice!
@@MichiganGreatOutdoors pretty similar concept. Not as many straps but with my setup it works perfect.
Great review keep up the great work buddy
Thanks a ton!
I’m 5’11 275 lbs. The width of shoulders straps, could go into mor details on it. $400 is a lot for something I can’t use.
How big are you compared to me?
@Michael Savage like the same size. Im 265 with pretty wide shoulders.
Still waiting for that full review!
Forsure, Ill make it soon. I have like 5 saddle pack reviews coming lol
You the man
no u the man
Review on the Kuiu?
Its coming!
You need to loose the straps and invest in some USA Amsteel ropes so much lighter and better. There's a guy from Saginaw that makes them and sells them on Esty.
I know him and I own some. I like cam straps better.
Make sure you fit the back plate to your back.
I did. It didn't help
Thanks
Welcome 🤙🤙
All the gear, give me anxiety I’m going to forget something 😅
Thats how I feel!!
300+ dollars - no thanks.That's way too much loot for a back pack considering there are competative offerings from companies with a lot more experience, such as Bad Lands, that make better packs for half the price.
yeah, Does bad lands make them in USA? I think that's how they are justifying the price on this one.
But the price man. Looks cool... but not really $375 cool
Its super expensive for sure
Waste strap is what it needs. Carry weight on the hips. It's all in the shoulders that hurts. And it's over priced.
Yeah, I kinda like it not having one but it definitely hurts on the shoulders for sure.
@@MichiganGreatOutdoors Yeah small packs you can get away with not having one but larger packs with more weight have to have it.
y'all carry too much 😉
These sandwiches aint gonna carry themselves B
@@MichiganGreatOutdoors LOL MGO gotta EAT son
Blatant copy of the Kifaru Shapecharge
You think so? Ive never saw a shape charge.
Lol because it opens as a clamshell? There’s quite a few differences between the two
@@flinginairos I think there a some similarities but nothing to warrant "they stole" the shape charge idea. I agree, they are more differences vrs similarities.
@@MichiganGreatOutdoors For sure
You boys are drinking the Kool-Aid.
