Aimed squarely at bow or gun hunters, the Quickdraw 2.0 in Realtree EDGE, from ALPS OutdoorZ, is a single-sling daypack offering quick access to all compartments, thanks to its swing-around design. Multiple shoulder strap configurations and zippered accesses located on both sides of the main compartment are designed to accommodate left- and right-handed users. Unlike traditional shoulder straps, the single-sling allows free-range of motion. The pack features a drop-down pocket to securely carry a bow or gun, and mollie webbing with a bungee system to carry a quiver or extra gear. A waist belt with pockets, that can also accommodate a holster, is included for extra stability. For hydration, a 2-liter water bladder comes with the pack.
