I have the Puruit 2 pack, use it exclusively for 3d, it's a good little pack, holds my 3liter hydradtion bladder well, plus a lot of room for snacks, rain gear etc etc while doing the course. really cool little feature is the built in rain fly in a little hidden pocket in the bottom, usually gotta buy those separately. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone

I’ve hunted with mine for 2 years now, this year I got curious and ordered a similar sized badlands pack, but I kept using the pursuit. The bad lands pack is super nice, but for the pursuit is the ultimate white tail day pack, I can carry my bow bow in on my back, it holds my water bladder if I want one, my bottles if I don’t. The front pocket opens to make a nice shelf, it holds any clothes I take off or wanna put on, my only complaint is that I thought it was heavy, but since then I’ve messed with the badlands pack, and some of my buddies bags, and it’s not really that heavy in comparison. If something happened to my pursuit pack today, I’d order another one today. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed at all.

I’m assuming it’s too late since they were on sale yesterday on camofire, they will come up again soon though. I purchased one through camofire last year and have been very impressed, I can’t think of one negative about it. I use the straps to put a lot on the outside of the pack when cold weather rolls around, and the stitch points have not stretched at all. It has some nice features as well.

My Farm & Home supply store had them on sale at end of season, but I already have 2 other packs, I have the original Alps Pathfinder. I like it, but they have upgraded it with better outside material and a couple other features, the store has one of them for $80 bucks, but I am not one to just dump something that is not much different..

I don't have the pursuit, but I have the Pathfinder and Big Bear. Great packs. Customer Service was excellent when needed

Alps outdoorz is a great brand of backpacks. There is a lot of space, space and additional pockets increase comfort and space. The straps are wide, do not cut into the shoulders. Well, I put over 30 kg of venison

I missed the camofire sale. What do they usually mark them down to on the site? I was going to purchase one used from AT but for some reason, the pack did not come with the shelf. I am not too familiar with the Alpz Pursuit, was solely going off of recommendations that I've read. Can anyone inform me on how I'll know whether or not a particular Pursuit has the internal shelving option? Thanks.

Give camo fire a call...there are times that inventory is left when the sale ends, and they will usually honor the price. Have done this myself with other items in the past

If you call Camofire, they’ll sell you one today or tomorrow or anyday at that price. Most people don’t know this, but they will [emoji817]

Can anyone help me out with the bolded above? I'd like to call Camofire today if the price point is right. With them being a few hours behind me, I'll have to wait until after work to call so am just curious. Thanks.

I really like mine. I can strap my stand to it and use the waist belt and other straps to help distribute the weight
