Good vid bud! Thanks! Finding a pack that carries it all and effectively is harder than I thought! I’m glad there are purpose build saddle/stand packs out there because the functionality of a ‘normal’ bag can’t deal well with platforms and sticks typically.
Is this fabric noisy? Or is it super quite? I get in tight to deer so I can’t have hardly any noise at all. Also are there other features on this pack that you didn’t mention? The website shows other options that you didn’t mention. Just wondering. Thanks!
Why not flip the climbing sticks over so the tree engagement legs stick out and the flatter side is against the platform? Seems like it would be more secure/streamlined and less likely to move
I should’ve flipped the camera over and shown how they were nesting together, but the way I have them allows for the platform stand-off to nest under the sticks stand-off for the most streamlined way possible
I have over $1500 worth of First Lite clothing. I need my head checked! I thought when I started this venture many years ago I was getting in on something good and positive for the hunting community and conservation. Boy was I wrong! First Lite was great when they were starting up. Their wool base layers were fantastic then. Now that Meat Eater has taken over this place has gone to crap. I had a run in with customer service the other day and trust me when I say they don't give two cents about customer service or their customers. As soon as this return is done I am finished with First Lite. The biggest reason for my departure it this MADE IN CHINA! Really! How are we helping our country and how is that helping conservation in our outdoors. Meat Eater is paying 12 cents to have a T-Shirt made and selling it to the blue collar hunter for $65. Really! I don't care if I have to resort back to a red flannel button up. I AM DONE!!
Some of their older items were made in Vietnam. At least they aren't China made. It's all about quantity now and not quality. The last two times I spoke with customer service they weren't very helpful or seem to care about you as a customer like they use too. Back several years ago a guy from First Lite called me just to see how my hunting season went and picked my brain about what I liked and didn't like about the clothes and if I had any suggestions. Can't ever see that happening again.
I stand by First Lite 100 percent! I have purchased well over 1600 dollars in gear and every single item has held up greatly ! I don’t give a shit if it’s made in China or on fuckin Mars. All this hype about American made stuff is ridiculous. Half the shit made in America is insanely over priced when it should be affordable due to being manufactured here ! I’m active military and very patriotic but this hype about American made stuff is ridiculous. First Lite is all I’ll ever own!
Good for you. However, the majority of us who serve or served care where the products they buy are made, sourced and whether or not use basically slave labor. I personally am a big fan of the show MeatEater but until they start utilizing more USA made products I will seek my business elsewhere. I am more than willing to shell out more for American made and sourced products.
First lite is the only company that I know of that offers a very nice military discount through their loyalty program. Their stuff may be made out the country but it’s still quality brother. I guarantee that the vehicle you drive or the appliances in your home come from another country. Tell me another quality camo brand that gives a 20 percent military discount on all items they have and I’ll buy me an you both something from them
Haha! Made in china! I’m so sick of these sponsored tubers and there verbal diarrhea. I like joe miles, tho he owns asio, he isn’t sponsored for bow and broadhead and runs so many tests and rarely does he promote his company on his channel.

Love this pack always wanted more room. Now I can bring the kitchen with me!!
Thank you for showing where you put your sticks and stand nobody else shows their set up yet

Can you show or go more into detail about using it with a quarter?
Odd question, but would a Sony FX6 fit down inside that pack without having to strip it down?
Thank you for being the first to show a saddle set up on this pack!
What camera arm is that though?
That’s the timber ninja arm - pretty sweet!
Good review. Short and sweet

Damn man who hurt you
Could this pack in solitude or sanctuary set on long walks into stand?
Yes, I fit my solitude bibs and jacket and still had some room left with the bag expanded.

Is it waterproof?
Is that pack 4 ft tall?
Did you pay $325 for that pack? Or did they promise you if you were to promote it you could keep it for free?
Haha! Made in china! I’m so sick of these sponsored tubers and there verbal diarrhea. I like joe miles, tho he owns asio, he isn’t sponsored for bow and broadhead and runs so many tests and rarely does he promote his company on his channel.
WTF does it matter???
@@V1KTOR33 Joe is a great guy! One of the best in the industry IMO!
If your sponsored let me I would be interested or like to know how I can get sponsored down the road.!
Is this made in America two why no crossbow attachment?
What pack has a crossbow specific attachment? I don’t know that I have ever seen that.
@@galinswigart I know that’s what I’m saying crossbow community could use one
I’ll trade my my first born for one of those suckers
I would rather have Sitka tool bucket or cargo box
No one asked.
Yeah no thanks 😒 to much money just for a pack to toss around in dirt
almost 3000 cubic inch pack is insanity for whitetail lol
