Designed in the USA. Trusted in the Field.

"After hunting some of the most remote country in the Lower 48, Alaska, Kyrgyzstan, and beyond, I’ve spent years putting nearly every major pack system on the market to the test.

Some packs were comfortable but overly complicated. Others were lightweight but lacked durability. Some hauled weight well but were bulky and frustrating to use in real hunting situations.

No matter what I tried, I never found a pack that checked every box.

So we set out to build what we believed was the perfect hunting pack — one that combines comfort under heavy loads, simplicity and ease of use, rugged durability, lightweight performance, and true versatility for both day hunts and extended backcountry trips.

This pack was built by hunters who live out of their packs, for hunters who demand more from their gear." - Erik Van Woerkom

Patented Adjustable Frame
The patented frame adjustment system was built to eliminate fit guesswork. Two locking mechanisms allow the shoulder harness to slide up or down the carbon fiber frame so hunters can dial in torso fit without buying multiple frame heights or fighting an overcomplicated setup.


Built-In Meat Shelf

The bag peels away from the frame so meat can be loaded between the frame and bag. This keeps heavy weight close to your back for better balance, control, and comfort during the pack-out.


Day Hunt to Backcountry Versatility

With 4250 cubic inches of internal capacity and a removable lid, the Cheat Code Backpack can run lean for faster hunts or load out for extended backcountry trips.

At 5.6 lb without the lid and 6.2 lb with the lid, the pack is built to carry serious loads without unnecessary bulk.


Hydration Compatible

An integrated water bladder holder and hose-routing system allow you to run a hydration hose out through the frame and down the shoulder strap.


Rain Fly Included

The included rain fly stores in a dedicated bottom pocket, keeping weather protection ready without taking up main storage space.
