Water transportation?

[David Frank]

Last year, I hunted with a friend of a friend who had a backpack that holds water, and had a hose coming over his shoulder with a nosel on the end. He could simply squeeze the end of the nosel and shoot water into his dog's mouth. This was much easier than carrying around multiple water bottles. I can't get ahold of him to see what type it was. I was at the big "C" store today, and they said that both their brand, and the big name brand (camel....) worked like a straw and required suction in order to get water to flow. I have no experience with these so am wondering if anybody knows of a brand or type that would work.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance for any replies, and happy hunting.

I have a camelback and a couple off brand ones that came with hunting packs/upland vest. On all of them you just have to start the suction until you drink a little water and then it will spray out after that for the dog when you squeeze the end. Some come out faster than others, but they all seem to work for me with this technique.

Thanks for the response! I'll have to pick one up and give it a try. Much easier than lugging around a bunch of water bottles in the vest!
