I tried a backpack. I hated it in every way.
First, comfort. I'd have to be uncomfortable with another bag for this to be an issue. I have no comfort issues with traditional bags.
The biggest thing I hate is getting discs in and out. When I approach a shot, I'm looking down in my bag as I'm visualizing what needs to be done. I then easily grab the right disc with the bag still on my shoulder. With a pack, I had to put it down, bend over and then do disc selection. Replacing the disc was also more difficult.
In the end, a backpack offered me zero advantages, and multiple problems. It's collecting dust in my storage.
