I think most guys just ride with a seat pack on a fully. I rode with one on a trip a while back, but I got really frustated by the constant swaying. Also, packing one sucks.
The puck and tierap solution works really well. Tieraps are supposedly industrial grade (not sure what that means though). I did a couple of test runs packed over some local mountainbike courses and it stayed in place nicely even with jumps and all.
Tailfin is a nicer solution, but even more pricey. Also, I use this bike for commuting and with this rack I can fit a normal pannier which isn't possible on the Tailfin.
