Imo like a hole in the head.as think I need one
Bolty oh so many years ago I had one and it was the worst possible POS bit of kit I have had (almost) Every day out I would be back in camp with the worst case of lower back pain simply because the **** of a thing pulled on my hips all day long with the weight down low. Shoulder straps only packs for me.
Thanks for heads up jg, a big consideration me as when I thought I was a hero used to drag reds about and lift heavy weights but paying for it now
My experience is it depends on the capacity of the fanny pack and what you put in it - total weight. I have the smaller Proteus Maxpidition pack and when it’s pulled up tight it actually acts as lumbar support just like a weightlifter’s belt.
This is probably why I’ve never used the Badlands “Monster Fanny Pack” (no sniggering in the stalls) I have and can be loaded with a roe kid if that’s your thing!

I agree! I got one earlier this week (7 litre capacity) sits on the waist comfortably and has plenty of carrying capacity. The trick of course is to resist the temptation to fill it up with unnecessary junk, (guilty as charged, on previous occasions) just in case. I'm travelling to Vancouver Island and city in the summer, hoping it'll be useful when out and about seeing the sights!

Kifaru tailgunner is mega. I use mine with a harness. Perfect for a roe sack, bit of med kit to attach my gunbearer and binos to.
Thanks all so far for advice am teetering on the brink as like to go for walks and sit with nv and thermal and sit till daft o clock in summer or first knockings using a handbag type bag which came with a disco but coupled with rifle on back and thermals round neck all a bit awkward at times over distance and pulls on back after a while.
Nv tubed add on and sacred along with can of coke etc

If you have a back prob now you will only exacerbate that problem with a bum bag.but paying for it now
Sage words from a feller that has dipped into the water.its under the bench with all the other good ideas
My 2 cents was that if you are on a fair dinkum half day or full day wander, not the 200 yards from car to the tree stand you will find that they are problematic in causing lower torso issues. My own foray into it is simply they are not for me, in fact I do not know one single fella here that actually has one and we Aussies are a nation of 'must haves' I was one lol......read paul`o`s line again.
One with a harness gets a 1/2 a nod but a small daypack with the must have quick release chest belt/harness is far better for the hunter that gets off the track and into the hills. Those Scottish mountains look tough on everything and if its your back that has any issues ...use a back pack.
More and more gear just like the lures in a tackle shop are the new thing in town to entice the cashed up buyers.
What the hell are you guys putting in these fanny packs??
