Sweet video! I would recommend using a Quick Detach Stabilizer mount (standard bee stinger style). Don’t get a QD that removes from the side. Also depending on your setup, you can potentially bolt directly to the sight or Riser.
I just got the same tent I really like it too..
Hi what space is on the inside of the upper section. I've got two 4 piece rods approx 80cm in tube.
What color is the venture divide? Thanks.
Ash
how would this do as a edc/photography bag? is there a spot for laptop?
I can fit my smaller Macbook Air where the water bladder holder is. I also fit in a 24-70 and 70-200 in the main compartment, I do suggest keeping them in some sort of padded storage holder they typically come with. In the very front pouch you can put 2 mirrorless bodies if needed. Plenty of pockets for extra batteries and such. Bag just doesn’t offer the typical padded protection a true camera pack does.
Nice selection of spirits behind you 👍🏻
Through airport checked or carry on?
Checked due to the length, has a place for airport locks on it.
Those "Xtra tuff" boots lasted me 2 months and fell apart horribly you must walk light ....
Interesting. I’m still rocking mine, they are pre-covid boots, maybe that had something to do with it. Sorry to hear that.
RIP XV 26.5” c2c 100gr point, 50gr victory shock, Elkshape wrap, 3 AAE airazr pros= 375 with roughly 17% FOC
How do you like the Airazr pros?
@@shippadventures so far I can tell they are the same size and profile of the Max Pro’s but a stiffer material. Still have some testing to do but pleased with them
If you were looking to go light and little less expensive but weren’t necessarily going to hunt with the arrows, why didn’t you go with 300 spine RIP XV’s? They come in at 7.1 GPI and come with light components. They are also 5mm, so better in the wind. .001 shafts are like $130/dozen. Just interesting to see folks talking about “light” TAC arrow builds using Easton, when Easton doesn’t really compete in the GPI category with Victory. Wouldn’t the XV’s just be a lighter arrow, with a smaller diameter, at a better price point?
Solid point no doubt. With my background shooting the Easton Hexx arrow and really loving that arrow for the weight, performance, and price it felt like more of a comfort decision with my past history. However, I’m not married to any specific brand of arrow and I’m always open to exploring new options. I do really love my RIP TKOs for hunting and that was a route I considered going down. I also wasn’t aware of the XVs to be honest. All the comments here really lead to that arrow. I will pick up a half dozen and see how these shoot for me as well. Thanks for checking out the video.
@@shippadventures one advantage that Easton has it that they ARE made in the USA. I believe victory uses Mitsubishi’s carbon expertise and factories out of Vietnam.

Cut 2” off the shaft which will increase foc and stiffen the spine and drop to 100gr field points
I’m cutting off a little more of the arrow to stiffen it up a little and drop the weight. Thanks!
Yeah, use a 100gr field point to bring you to 385gr lol you'll still have decent foc plenty good enough for field points and foam targets.
Im shooting 31" c2c 300 spine rip xv x vane 1.5" with 100 grain glue in point sitting right at 343.3. shooting a bowtech reckoning gen 2 at 32.5" draw
Wow. That’s nice and light.
I’ve got a 29” C2C RIP XV with a wrap, 3 TAC Driver 2.0’s (may do 4 idk yet), 160 total grains up front, AAE IP5 nock, TAW 396 +/- a hair. If you drop down to a 100gr arrow then you’re at 385.
I ended up cutting 2” off the shaft and I’m running 125 up front now. Total arrow weight is now 375 🙌🏼
Rip xv … build them how you want
I’ll look into those, thanks for the suggestion.
That was probably the most artfully done arrow build I’ve seen on KZread. I’m surprised at the 340 spine shaft/125 grain head at 76#. Seems pretty underspined. FWIW I’m shooting and liking the Sonic as well. For my 3D arrow I’m using a 300 spine cut short to 27” with the stock insert and a 100 grain point. Bow is a 70#, 29” draw Traverse.
Haha, thank you! I’m with you on the spine weight. My bow tech said with the Mathew’s LIFT he’s been seeing some patterns on the arrow weights that he typically doesn’t see. We shot both the 340 and the 300 and the bow was bare shaft tuning better with the 340. Glad you like them. What did you get your total arrow weight to?
Nice. You're obviously not having any issues shooting a 340 spine at 76 pounds/28 inches? I'm shooting 82 pounds but at my hobbits 26 inch draw length and using 300 spine Victory XV's. Fast and light but man they ain't cheap. Might give the sonics a look-see. Thanks for sharing.
I’m surprised as well with the 340 spine. I’ll have to look into the Victory XVs people seem to like those a lot. Thanks for checking out the video.
Many thanks for the review.
Thanks for watching!
Water bottle holders on side are too short.
They are a little short but you can use the side straps for the taller water bottles.
You said you use it for travel, would a 15 inch laptop fit in the pack easy enough do you think?
I can fit my 16” Mac Pro with no issues in the larger zip portion.
Sizing is the Sizing on the dive bomb boots the same Sizing as the xtratuf boots
Yes, they fit pretty similar. I wear a 12 in both boots and can't tell a difference.
Make one for molle webbing!
I don't hunt and I would never lv my release on my bow at a tournament.
More ideal for stand hunting or out West.
Ive had the grundens deck boss boots and they are amazing. It seems like there is a narrow temperature range where they are comfortable if it is too warm your feet will be sweaty as hell and if it is too cold and snow is on the ground your toes will feel like they are going to fall off. Might pick up a set of the winter MUCK boots if the supposedly waterproof Vasque I just bought don't cut it in the snow and slush.
Its a shame nobody makes heavier boots with a thin flat minimalist sole I hate raised heels so much they feel like shit if you have to drive a truck and do heel toe downshifts with a manual transmission.
The Mucks are great for the slushy wet cold weather. I’m rocking mine right now, we got a decent amount of snow. Thanks for checking out the video!
Agree.
Is it big enough to zip up a rifle?
Not really. I've rigged up my 350 Legend to fit in the back side that has a bottom zipper designed for tripod legs and had the gun barrel facing down. The buttstock of the gun was held in by the upper clips from the bag. Good for a short distance.
Thermarest Etherlite sleeping pad? Might want to check that brand.
Sea to Summit, my bad. I was thinking of the "Thermolite HL-1 insulation" it has and mixed up the naming. Thanks for the correction.
Nice review, thanks. Just stumbled upon your channel and look forward to seeing more gear reviews. Also I think we might have been in boy scouts together for a bit...troop 18?
Thank you! Haha what a small world. Yes, 18 out of Reidland.
Yep troop 18 out of Reidland. I graduated '04 so a few years younger than you. Definitely a small world. I can definitely see your channel growing with this content and your production quality. Good luck with the channel man!
So cool. Thanks for reaching out!
That's one expensive magnet. Pass
Can you make it cheaper for me? I don’t have a 3D printer or AutoCAD. Not sure where to source out the magnets either. How much do you charge?
Theres these things called pockets. Put it in there until you're in the stand.
@@censoredAmerican That works too
@shippadventures worked wonders for years, gonna be great innovation for future generations of hunters
Great review Nate👍🏼🔥
Appreciate it!
Any way to strap a predator platform & climbing sticks to that pack??
Climbing sticks yes. I run the Skeletors across the top of the bag horizontal and clip them with the smaller clips at the top of the bag. As far as the platform you might be pushing it. You could possibly crisscross the bottom straps through the platform and connect them to the opposing sides of the bag. Not sure how secure all that would be on the bag.
i love the video quality its informative and well paced i hope your channel will grow quickly
Thank you!
All 3 of my releases are stainless steel and the magnets hold them in really tight. I’m not sure if there are steel parts inside the releases that it’s grabbing on to or not or they use ferritic stainless steels. Those are magnetic. It works though.
Magnetic?? Aren’t most if not all releases made of aluminum or stainless steel.
My guess is the releases are made out of Austenitic stainless steel or the magnets on the holder are pulling from steel parts inside the release. Both of my releases are able to be help by the magnets.
Is the open center big enough for a saddle platform?
No it’s not wide enough. I do put my climbing sticks horizontal across the top and it holds those fine.
Great review- is the color you have “ash”?
Yep
Hahahah I agree with you, love all the pockets but I lose my gear as well. But this is the first season with Kuiu packs. And im switch between two packs... Now I want 2 of everything. Thanks for the video! Ohh I went with the 2000 over the 1200 and 1500
That's a great pack! I love that you can remove the waist belt, it makes it so much more versatile. Thanks for the comment.
If using it to carry a bow , would you recommend the bow carry attachments Kuiu offers ? Is this pack compatible with those attachments ? How would you carry the bow in the field ? Thank you for the review . Just what I needed to see 🤘🏼👍🏼
Yes, the bow holder will work with the pack since it has connection webbing loops. The pack is on sale right now for $99! Thanks for checking the video out.
