GFA Haversack review

[AWPForester]

Well, my Asbell haversack arrived last night.  I loaded it up and was pretty dang amazed at how much room this thing has.  I took a couple pics to show you the versatility and packing capabilities of this thing because my biggest concern was if it would hold enough stuff for an all day foray.  The pics speak for themselves.

Here's one of it loaded, and still plenty of room for food and other stuff.  Funny thing is this was everything minus a walkie talkie I had in my backpack.

And here is one that shows what was in it.  As you can tell it is definately an all day bag.  Maybe this will put some perspective on how big they are and just how much stuff they will hold instead of "alot".  God Bless

I love mine.


Wonder when those woolie warmers are going to be on the site and how much?

[Norminator]

I gotta order one of those. They are relatively cheap, I think around 35$

Could you post a pic of the inside? I think I may need to get me one of them! Thanks

[AWPForester]

I can.  It has 2 main compartments with a smaller pocket in compartment about a 6 by 6.  It would be good for holding calls,gloves, lights, or anything you need to keep seperate for easy access.    Thw 2 big compartments are 15" long by 13" high, and they are plenty wide.  Just very well designed and built.

I'll try to get one up tomorrow.  God Bless

First 2 pics are of the pockets, the next one is of a 1000 foot spool of 550 paracord about as big as an old gallon can of coffee to give you reference of it's toting abilities.  God Bless

[Jason Kendall]

Thanks for posting those, I have been wondering whats on the inside. I have been using an old army duffle bag for years with grommets and a rope for the strap. It has served me well but I would really like the pockets the Asbell has. I will be ordering one soon.

[Covey]

What size did you get? I've been wanting one, but wasn't sure what size to get.

Thanks, Jason

[AWPForester]

It is the biggest size they have.  15 by 13 inches I think.  The size and model is defined by color as well as features.  God BLess

Justin, how about a pic of you with it on, for further perspective?

[Jake Diebolt]

I have one, love it. I use it to carry climbers when setting tree stands. Much easier to get at than in a pocket or a shoulder pack, and doesn't interfere with my climbing gear.

As a backpack freak, I gotta say you could loose some stuff in these things with the sizable and separate compartments. Misleading for sure if you think it's small.

[AWPForester]

South Mississippi, I got no way to take a pic cause it is just me and my wife just left for work.  I'll try to get one this evening.  God Bless

[AWPForester]

It ain't pretty or a real good pic, but it was the best I could do given I was alone.  Had to take in a mirrror.  When I get real serious about wearing it I will adust it up about 2-3 inches and get if off the point of my hip. But, you can get an idea of how big it is.  God Bless

[Rob W.]

I think the size is perfect for full day deer/turkey outings. I even got my leafy suit and harness in there so I could drag a deer in warmer weather this year.

I did however add an antler button to keep the flap a bit more secure.

[GingivitisKahn]

I've been curious about how sturdy those things are.  What do you think?

[Rob W.]

Mine made it through an entire squirell/deer season with me without any problems. Thats mile plus walk-ins atleast 3 days a week, 4 deer drags, and still looks new.

[KYhunter]

Does it have a snap on it to keep it closed?

[South MS Bowhunter]

What Jim said, i too am wondering if it has something to keep it close and also when you have it loaded does everything seem to fall into the center?  In other words does it load the center and cause the  sides to collapse?
