Tailhook
The Tailhook continues the
evolution of what many of our customers tell us was their favorite pack,
the Slingshot. When introduced in 2005, the Slingshot was the
first pack made that allowed you to carry a bow on the pack, and get it
off without removing the pack. Since then, we've made more, and
we've made enough exciting new changes to the design that we decided to
rename it. Introducing the new Tailhook, a unique pack that is our
only large lumbar pack, with many of the capabilities of a full-scale
pack. As used on the Tailhook, our patented Ripcord Tether™
completes the Quickdraw System that we pioneered with our Backscabbard™
rifle packs.
The small upper bag provides a
platform for a bow or a rifle to rest on, and makes the pack carry them
with exceptional stability. The upper bag's internal
pocket incorporates a spacer pad to keep the bow or rifle away from your
head.
Tah Dah!
Count 'em if
you want to. If you include the bow carrier, there are 21 separate
storage compartments and pockets on this pack. That doesn't mean
it's overloaded with them; it's just sensibly laid out. And it's a
great pack for being organized in the field; once you decide where
everything goes, you will always be able to go right at it.
Our unique
"Tailhook" will redefine treestand hunting. Its opposing main
flap's buckles are made to wrap around a tree and convert the pack into
the ultimate organizer. The standard pack will go around a pretty
good sized trunk, but if you've got to go around a really big one, you
can add our ACSE strap extension kit, a 3-pack of straps and buckles
that add length in 1-foot increments.
Carrying a bow
adds a challenge to many hunting situations. Bows tend to get in
your way when you’re trying to move quietly, and they’re heavy after a
full day. We think that getting your bow or your rifle off of your pack
is an obvious need for a hunter, but for some reason, it didn’t exist
until we made the effort to develop it. We began by introducing
our Backscabbard™
rifle packs, which customers around the world have come to love.
Now, we offer the same kind of solution for bow hunters. You can
safely stow your bow, and keep your hands free for climbing, crawling,
clearing branches, and all of the other stuff you do when you’re out
there. You’ll concentrate better, you’ll be more effective, and you’ll
have quickly have access to your bow when you need it.
But we didn’t
stop there. While wearing a Tailhook, you can sit down.
Which means that you can ride a horse or an ATV while carrying a bow.
Or, you can just sit. Add the plush comfort that the pack offers,
and the unparalleled features, and you’ve got an unbeatable bow hunter’s
pack.
The Tailhook is also an
excellent gun pack. The new design features a vertically
adjustable ButtBucket™
that you can drop down in order to carry your rifle at your preferred
height. The butt of a gun rests in the ButtBucket™;
wrap the Ripcord
around the forestock (it works well if you go around below a swivel
stud), pull it tight, and off you go. To get your rifle off of
your back, just grab the barrel with one hand and the Ripcord buckle
with the other, and pop it off.
This is such a nice,
simple system, that it will make you wonder why nobody's ever done it
before.
The Tailhook has a full
complement of accessory pockets, plus a removable shoulder harness (for
use as a lumbar pack only) and a removable waistbelt. Speaking of
the waistbelt, we haven't skimped on the padding on this pack...
We make these things knowing that you're going to be wearing them all
day, every day, and we want you to be comfortable. We use a a
full-sized freight pack's waist belt so that it'll ride well. Deep
cut padding provides extra ventilation.
