- CARRIES YOUR WHOLE SADDLE SYSTEM: External compression straps and reinforced attachment points lash a saddle platform, hang-on treestand, or a full stack of climbing sticks flat to the pack, turning your stand into a frame pack for the walk in.
- DEAD QUIET IN THE BRUSH: A 500D Cordura Truelock shell and premium YKK zippers stay silent against branches and clothing, so this saddle hunting backpack does not give you away on a dark morning walk to the tree or on the climb.
- 16L THAT FITS THE KIT: The main compartment plus lid and interior zip pockets hold ropes, bridge, tether, lineman's belt, layers, calls, and a kill kit, and the hydration-compatible sleeve keeps a bladder out of your way.
- BUILT TO CARRY WEIGHT: EVA-padded shoulder straps, an EVA waist belt, and a vented back panel move the load onto your hips, and adjustable torso length fits hunters from 17 to 21 inches. Just 3.1 lb empty.
- MOLLE FRONT, SIDES, AND BELT: Add a saddle pouch, dump pouch, bino harness, or rangefinder case exactly where you want it - a modular hunting pack that adapts for whitetail, bow, crossbow, rifle, turkey, and elk hunting or summer scouting.
Description
Pack light. Climb fast. Stay silent. The XOP Solo Scout 16L is built for saddle hunters and mobile hang-and-hunt hunters who cover ground and carry their own setup. The external carry system takes a saddle platform, a hang-on treestand, or a stack of climbing sticks and locks it flat to the back of the pack, so your stand becomes the frame and the weight rides tight and centered instead of swinging on the climb. Inside, 16 liters of usable space swallows the rest of the system - ropes, bridge, tether, lineman's belt, extra layers, calls, knives, and a kill kit - with a hydration sleeve for a bladder so you are not stopping to dig for water. MOLLE webbing runs across the front panel, both sides, and the waist belt, so a saddle pouch, dump pouch, bino harness, or rangefinder case goes exactly where your hands expect it. The shell is 500D Cordura Truelock with premium YKK zippers: abrasion-resistant, weather-ready, and quiet when it drags a branch in the dark. EVA foam padding on the shoulder straps and waist belt, plus a vented back panel, keeps a loaded pack comfortable on long walk-ins, and adjustable torso length dials in the fit for hunters between 17 and 21 inches. At 3.1 pounds empty, the Solo Scout is a lean hunting day pack that still hauls a full mobile hunting kit - whitetail on public land, bow or crossbow in October, a run-and-gun turkey morning, or a scouting trip in the summer. Less weight. Less noise. More range. Built for the mobile few.

Compact Backpack for Saddle Hunting Gear
This is a really nice compact backpack for carrying the gear you need for mobile hunting setups without going with a huge pack. The 16-liter capacity gives it a good balance between having room for essential equipment and keeping the overall pack relatively compact. I like the MOLLE frame carry system because it gives you options for securing and organizing additional gear. That's particularly useful with saddle hunting or mobile setups where you may have several pieces of equipment that don't necessarily fit neatly inside a traditional backpack. The design is also made around carrying platforms and climbing sticks, which is a big advantage over a generic daypack. Those pieces of equipment can be awkward to transport, so having a backpack specifically designed with mobile gear hauling in mind makes a lot of sense. The hydration-ready design is another feature I appreciate for spending extended periods outdoors. Being able to incorporate a hydration system without having to dedicate a hand or constantly reach for a separate bottle is a convenient feature in an outdoor pack. Despite being relatively compact, the pack also has plenty of versatility for other outdoor gear. It can be used for carrying accessories, personal items, and equipment while still leaving the option to attach bulkier items externally. The MOLLE-style setup adds to that flexibility. I also like the overall look of the pack. It's purpose-built outdoor gear without being excessively large or cumbersome, which makes it suitable for someone who prefers a lighter, more streamlined setup. Overall, this is a very useful 16L backpack for mobile hunting gear. The compact size, MOLLE frame carry system, platform and climbing-stick compatibility, and hydration-ready design make it a versatile way to organize and transport equipment without having to carry a much larger pack.

Great pack for saddle hunting and carries everything I need
I’ve used this XOP saddle backpack for a few hunts now and so far I’m really happy with it. I was able to carry a 2 qt CamelBak, range finder, grunt call, binoculars, my climbing sticks, and saddle platform all on one pack without having everything hanging all over the place. The biggest thing I like is how well it’s set up for saddle hunting. I can strap my platform and sticks to the outside and still have plenty of room inside for the rest of my gear. The straps and buckles hold everything down tight and I didn’t have my sticks or platform shifting around while walking through the woods. There are also plenty of smaller pockets and attachment points for stuff you want to be able to get to without digging through the whole pack. I like the drawstring closures on the pockets because I can keep my calls and other smaller gear secure but still get to them pretty quick. Even with everything loaded up it carried the weight pretty well and didn’t feel overly bulky walking in. For somebody saddle hunting and trying to carry their sticks, platform, water and hunting gear in one setup, this works really well. The only thing I would change is maybe give it a little more organization inside, but that’s really just personal preference. Overall I’d give it 5 stars. It carries everything I need for a saddle hunt and keeps my setup compact and easy to carry into the woods.

Slimmer profile than I expected, but the build quality is impressive
Went in expecting a bit more bulk based on the listing photos, and it's actually a slimmer pack in person than I pictured. Wasn't a dealbreaker though, if anything it makes sense once you're actually moving through the woods with a stand or sticks, less bulk to snag on branches or get in the way while climbing. Where this pack really stands out is the build quality. Everything feels strong and well put together, the MOLLE frame carry system feels like it can handle real weight without flexing or feeling sketchy, which matters a lot when you're hauling a stand or climbing sticks through rough terrain. Pocket organization is probably my favorite part though, there's a spot for pretty much everything, and it makes packing for a hunt way more organized than just tossing gear into one big compartment like a lot of packs force you to do. Being hydration ready is a nice bonus too, one less thing to figure out separately. Slimmer than expected, but everything else about the build and functionality more than makes up for it. Solid pack for anyone hauling stands, sticks, or gear into the stand.

Perfect early season hunting pack
This pack seems like an excellent option for early archery season or early rifle season, when temperatures are still warm and there is no need to carry bulky insulation layers. Its compact size keeps the load manageable while still offering enough room for the essentials needed for a full day of saddle hunting on public land. I was able to fit the gear I would typically want close at hand, including a Thermacell, field-dressing kit, first-aid kit, snacks, and other small necessities. For hunters who pack everything in and out on the same day, this is a practical setup that helps keep gear organized without feeling oversized or cumbersome. Comfort is another strong point. The shoulder straps are well padded and comfortable, and the hip belt helps distribute the load effectively. That makes a noticeable difference when hiking farther into public land or carrying gear over uneven terrain. Overall, I would definitely recommend this as an early-season saddle hunting pack. It offers a useful balance of storage, comfort, and portability for hunters who want to stay mobile without leaving important gear behind.

VERY high quality! Sturdy backpack with molle straps and waist stability buckle.
I was really impressed with the materials and quality on this bag. While I'm not a hunter nor am I familiar with that ecosystem, I wanted something with sturdy back support so I could attach other high capacity bags onto it using the molle straps and various military style bags that I already have, as well as other backpacks and strap systems. The material is sturdy and very high quality - maybe some of the best I've ever seen. I really like the waist strap and if you put it on it is all very tight and can provide a good base to attach other things onto. The internal capacity isn't very big; you can fit about 2 laptops into it. It is a bit pricey at $120, but the quality makes it worthwhile and I look forward to seeing what I can do with this!

Hunting Backpack
This is a great hunting pack for staying organized without carrying something oversized or bulky. The 16L size has plenty of room for the essentials and I really like the external straps for securing climbing sticks or other gear. The shoulder strap and waist belt are comfortable and help distribute the weight well. The material feels durable and stays fairly quiet when moving through brush, which is a big plus while hunting. There are also plenty of attachment points for adding extra pouches or accessories. Well designed, comfortable to carry, and a solid choice for saddle hunting or mobile hunting setups.

Thoughtfully designed for mobile hunters
This hunting backpack is thoughtfully designed for mobile hunters who need to carry gear efficiently without excessive bulk. The 16 liter capacity provides useful storage while maintaining a compact profile that's easy to maneuver through wooded areas. The MOLLE compatible design adds flexibility for attaching additional gear, and the pack appears well suited for transporting climbing sticks, platforms, and other hunting equipment. The hydration compatible layout is another welcome feature for longer outings where carrying water is important. Overall, this pack balances organization, durability, and portability. Hunters looking for a compact gear hauler will likely appreciate the practical design and ability to configure the pack for different hunting setups.

Good but Expensive
This is a great bag. Is it $120 great? In my opinion no. It is very sturdy, it has a rigid backplate, the pockets are deep and wide, it is comfortable size that even when full does not feel heavy, the shoulder straps are nicely padded and easily adjustable. I might not see the value of it since I am not using to carry a climbing system. As a normal everyday bag, it is great, but not $120 great.
