Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Overload Shelf conversion work?
The quick-attach frame cap hardware lets you easily convert the pack for hauling mode. The Overload feature creates a load sling between the pack and frame, putting bulk weight closest to your back for better load distribution when packing out game.
What weapons can this pack carry?
The compression strap system accommodates both bow and rifle carry. The straps secure your weapon to the pack during movement while keeping it accessible when you need it.
How many pockets does the Sawtooth 45 have for organization?
The pack includes four internal pockets for gear organization, plus a zippered top accessory pocket, and side stretch-woven pockets for bottles or tripod feet. Side stretch outer pockets provide additional external storage.
Is this pack compatible with hydration systems?
Yes, the Sawtooth 45 is hydration reservoir compatible. The internal organization accommodates standard hydration bladders for hands-free drinking during long hunts.
How does the telescoping yoke adjustment work?
The telescoping yoke system adjusts to match your torso length, ensuring proper fit and load distribution. This creates the right amount of standoff between your back and the frame for optimal comfort during extended carries.
