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.


Lightweight, Low-Profile Build

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.


User-Friendly Organization

The pack includes a thoughtfully designed lid and pocket system for organizing gear and keeping key items easier to access in the field.

Rifle carry is not built directly into the pack, but the Cheat Code Backpack is compatible with the Muley Freak Pack-Konnect Rifle Cover.

Customer Reviews

Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 23 reviews.

Took this pack on an early season multi day scouting trip and it performed awesome. It was so comfortable and easy to use. I was able to pack 40-50 pounds five miles a day for three days! Ready to use it for real hunting!

Awesome pack super lightweight and is also super comfortable. Love the padding on the hip belts and for your lower back support super easy to adjust for all types of body sizes.

Very comfortable and didn’t have to make a ton of adjustments for the fitment to be comfortable.

This pack really is the cheat code to hunting one of the most comfortable packs I’ve put in my back even when loaded still has the comfort it did before I wish that I owned one sooner love the gear love the videos

Best pack I’ve ever used! Which I would’ve got it sooner!

Got to use the cheatcode this weekend on a backcountry backpacking trip with 65 pounds in total pack worked phenomenal super comfortable climbing to 8100 feet elevation and definitely did not feel like the pack was 65 pounds can’t wait to use the pack more this coming season

I hardly ever talk about gear and brands but I gotta give a shoutout to Muley Freak who’ve put everything they can give into creating stellar gear. The Cheat Code pack is legit. I’ve used a popular high end brand for years and this Cheat Code is sooooo much more comfortable.

Spent two+ years trying to find a pack that had any packing capabilities that fit my girlfriend. Small torso, and small waist. Talked to the guys at MF and they were super helpful. Ordered one, adjusted it, and strapped a 40lb weighted blanket on the frame, and an extra 30lbs of horn on the outside as soon as we got it out of the box. She loves it. Packs great, durable, tons of room, and fits amazing. Recommend this pack to anyone, but especially people that struggle to find one that fits comfortably!

The cheat code is the best pack out there . Had this thing in some nasty conditions . Thrown in the back of the truck . Used as a rifle rest . Packed with all my gear for a 3 day backpacking hunt and still had plenty of room . Get one asap ! You won’t be disappointed

Went from the Kuiu Icon Pro the this. Have loved everything about it.

Ive had other top name packs that are out there and this pack is far superior in my opinion. Right out of the box setup for the individual is straightforward and simple. The frame offers great support and the pack shelf is easy to get too. I would buy 100 of these before I thought about another pack. You can tell the design and features were well thought out! - Eric Warkentin, Deke Outdoors

Super comfy and makes anything feel light and puts most the weight on my hips and off my shoulders, great bag all around

This pack is truly outstanding!!! I’ve had about every pack you can think of and every pack has its weaknesses between weight, comfortability, space, durability, and sizing. With the new cheat code it has in my eyes 0 weaknesses ,the first bonus is the adjustability, second its extremely light weight and the meat shelf is unbeatable. The space for such a light weight pack is outstanding with the roll up top makes for extra space making this perfect for days on end in the backcountry, as far as sheds go it has extreme capacity for horns as pictured. The comfort level is unreal I have yet to find any flaws with this pack. This is by far the most outstanding pack I’ve owned and excited for the upgrade going into this fall!

These are the best packs we have ever run they are small when you need them just for a day pack but they get big when your packing out the big bull! They nailed it with these I would highly recommend !

It fits so good and it’s compact and really big!!

This pack is amazing super Lightweight compared to Kuiu Packs I would 100% recommend this. It makes big elk horns feel like nothing.

Impressed with the comfort and modularity of this pack, whether you want to run it strictly as a meat hauler or a backpacking hunting pack for the backcountry this thing is built for whatever you throw at it!

Cheat codes did great on our spring bear hunt. Pack is so comfortable and simple to use. The more I mess with it the more I like it.

So excited about the upcoming season with the new cheat code backpack. Hopefully we get to put it to the test.

Best pack I’ve put on my back. Super comfortable and very adjustable for any body. Been using it for scouting and have been loving it. Can’t wait to put it to the real test and pack out some animals with it this fall! Love supporting great people that make great products!

The Cheat Code is the most comfortable pack I’ve ever used. It’s super quiet, easy to use, has plenty of room for all my gear, and the layout makes it easy to stay organized. I had no problem fitting everything I needed for my Alaska hunt, and I love that I can cinch it down into a compact day pack when I don’t need all the extra space. The materials are high quality, and everything about the pack feels well thought out. It’s been exactly what I was looking for, and I’ve been really happy with it.

This is an absolute CHEAT CODE! Took it on a backpacking trip and the fit was perfect. Every detail you could imagine is on this pack. There isn't anything missed and it's well worth the money. Stoked to have it during the hunts this year!

Absolutely the best pack anyone could get! Doesn’t make the long hikes feel heavy with the pack on. Incredible quality on every part of the pack. Everything you need in a pack is here and more. Super lightweight but durable. 10/10 would recommend to anyone interested getting a pack. I’ve been telling everyone I can about the pack it’s that good!
