Easton Backpack questions

Postby CampCreek » 02 23, 2016 •  [Post 1]

Do any of you folks have any experience or advice on the Easton Fullbore packs, either the 3600 or 5600? I know there are much better packs out there but I am wondering if this pack has the ability to get the job done. We will be doing a Colorado archery hunt, will be packing in a little ways from the road for a few days at least. Looking at a lot of new gear so trying to stretch my dollars where I can, but also know I don't want a pack that's a problem. Anyone that has looked at one or used one I appreciate your advice.

For what you want to do the 5600 is definitely the way to go. I took a minute to look the pack over online. That model shrinks down to 1100 c.i. if you ditch the gear bag etc. so that's great for a hunting daypack. On that pack the gear bag is a dry bag which is sweet. The design where there are two halves like that is very nice. I had a taco design Eureka like that and I loved it. Easton is no slouch of a company either. I like the pack myself.

Did you see the ad for $79.99?

Wow, $79.99, I hadn't seen that. Camofire had them for $99 the other day. Thanks for the heads up on that. Yeah I really liked the look of it on a couple of videos I had seen, but no one close to where I live has one that I can really look it over. Thanks again.
