In the past 2 years my partners and I have purchased 4 power hunters from Cabelas Dundee, MI store. We all could not live without them now but we have encountered one small problem the backpack straps are too short on all of the blinds. I wondered if you guys have any suggestions on how we could lenghten them. We have been stuck carying them in our arms instead of packing them in when heavy clothes are required. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

This is the first that I have heard of this. I am sure you are adjusting the shoulder straps to the max? Is anyone else having this occur?

I have two power hunters and haven't really had a problem with it. However, sometimes if i don't fold it up just right the straps are really tight. Try folding it up a different way. Hope this helps.

Are you sure you are not pulling the straps around the wrong way...I once pulled the straps all the way around the wrong way and then they were tight! Just an idea.

i have two of them, and the straps are plenty long enough on mine! like mentioned above, make sure they are going the right way! i have broken 2 of the buckle things, and need to find replacements! need to get another blind of some sort, so my 73 year old father can get in and out of it a little easier then the power hunter( i prop it up about 6-8" so he can ) ! jmo.......phil

Hey guys I just went out and made sure the straps were right and they were. Pro staffers if there is any way I could buy some buckles it would be easy to just extend the existing straps I think. Thanks
