I am having trouble picking which pack I want, either the Blue Widow or Dragonfly.
I hunt with all three weapon types and need a pack that I will be able to use all seasons and uses.
Blue Widow:
I like the wider chassis and double support straps on the BW. I also like the close to the body ride it offers. I felt the suspension system and straps feel better.
I didn't like the way the scabbard keeps the rifle butt close to your head...I could tilt my head back and smack myself. I wonder if properly fitted...would the scabbard remain fair back enough to stop that? I am also thinking on mounting it on the side to help remedy that.
Dragonfly:
I don't like the small chassis. All the fully loaded pics I see of it, it seems as if though the weight/load "spill over" on the sides.
The scabbard is nice.....but can kind of see where the load might ride away from you. The suspension system and straps feel too beefy and bulky. Also, it seems as if though it might be too rough on the hide...
What I am asking from the masses....what are ya'lls experiences with these packs? I need help picking which way to go. I haven't fully loaded either to see what they would do but know plenty of you have.
Thanks in advance!
