It doesn't look like anyone has mentioned this bag on the forums.
I've had a Slinger for closing in on 2 years now. I've been very happy with it, but wanted the capability to carry more water, more discs, and maybe a sweatshirt or rain jacket. And so forth. I started this thread towards the end of last year...

I was looking at some more expensive bags, but priorities changed a bit, so I thought I'd give the Huck Pack a go.
Here's my take:
Style - totally subjective, but I like it. Pretty conservative. It has an embroidered Infinite Discs logo on the front of the back. It has a rubberized bomber logo on the side, that I'm sure will start to peel off. That's fine.
Quality - I can't comment on durability yet, but the quality seems good. It feels like a better bag than the Innova and Prodigy bags at this price point. My Slinger has held up well, so I have no reason to believe that this will be any different.
Capacity - Main compartment is advertised to hold about 16 to 18 discs. I think that is accurate. I currently have 16 discs in mine, 10 of which are putters/mids. There is room to fit 17/11, but it starts to impact pulling discs out. I think 17 or 18 is viable if you carry less putters/mids. You can cram up to 6 putters in the top section, but carry more than 4 makes pulling discs out of the main compartment impractical. While 4 is doable, carrying 3 is probably the practical limit. You can also carry a rain jacket and 2 putters, but it takes a bit of effort to keep things in place. I'll probably go this route when weather is a concern. In lieu of that, you could shove your putters in the main compartment and use the top section to carry a sweatshirt/jacket and pants. Zipper pouch on the back for keys and wallet and probably a few other things. Side pouches and hooks for minis, range finder, golden retriever, sunblock, snacks, etc. The big draw for me was the water capacity of 64 ounces (though I quickly realized that carrying 64 ounces of water is heavier than what I want to drag around for a couple hours).
Too early to comment on comfort and I don't have a backpack point of reference, but seems fine. Regular price is $39.99, but they put them on sale at $29.99 frequently, which means you can get it shipped for under $40. I really don't think it can be beat for that price.
