My blind is a double bull and I have a Primos backpack for it.  I can get 2 chairs, the blind, and a gun or bow on this back pack.  I then have my vest, but another back pack with food, camera, GPS, games, coloring books, iPod.  But, I take my 6 yo with me so it has to be comfortable and fun.

An old Army duffel bag works great.

You look like you're moving when you turkey hunt.  All that's missing is the moving truck.   :TooFunny: :whip2: :goofball:

I don't. I use featherflex decoys which fit in my vest, and I have a cabelas umbrella blind that has it's own bag.
Blind on one shoulder, chair on the other, gun in hand.

It's always in my truck, and used off and on. I seldom use a full blind, but carry ground blinds, and my Gobbler lounger if I plan on playing the waiting game. With a back pack I can get all that stuff in there vs trying to carry it with slings.

I really like the more expensive mountain variety that distributes the weight better with the padded waist attachment. Some of the cheaper ones aren't ment to carry a lot of weight. Mine carries one heckuva lot of stuff comfortably.

Yes I use a backpack. Sometime I stay out most of the day, I can carry food, rain gear,camera and by adding blaze orange they are great for carrying that gobbler out.
