I appreciate it. Did you get the battle belt from him as well.@DanO carries the one I use on his website. They fit the Doyle’s gear hoist perfectly.

Thanks man. That battle belt may be the ticket. I cant get the same comfort every time im in the saddle this should help keep it lower/underneath more.I actually did not unfortunately. I got the same belt he has on his site, I just bought mine from Amazon because when I bought mine, I didn’t know he carried them. Same belt though...the One Tigris belt.
I bought DanO's battle belt and moved everything off of my saddle. The BB weights about 8.5 lbs, about 2lbs of that is the rappel gear on the right side. It rides on your hips and is sufficiently padded that I don't feel the weight at all. That's everything I need to carry into the woods except for a 5 stepp WE bag and my weapon. The holster is from Alien Gear, molle attachment with interchangeable molded holsters for each gun.I have a pistol belt attached to my vest I've been contemplating replacing with this belt and also attaching the saddle....just unsure how cumbersome itll be to put on a vest and saddle at the same time....this belt has sufficient padding so when u using the linesman belt loop it isn't digging in ur hip?
I gotta think on it a bit....the current pistol belt works fine ....the battle belt and linesman straps kinda pricey....
Total was $91 (all from DanO). If you have a COBRA or other rated buckle you could reuse that instead of buying a new one. I was planning on buying another saddle, so for me this was cheaper and more functional.Yea I was planning on having a Battle Belt w/ LB and sitdrag combo, and my keeping my kite saddle for rope climbing methods. At nearly $100 I’d probably have to sell my saddle because I couldn’t justify having both.
I still want to get one, I just haven’t decided yet. If I got the belt I would want the rated buckle as well since I’m using a sitdrag.
@ericabbot how much were you in for on the BB, LB and Buckles?
What saddle is that? The kestrel?Total was $91 (all from DanO). If you have a COBRA or other rated buckle you could reuse that instead of buying a new one. I was planning on buying another saddle, so for me this was cheaper and more functional.
BB - $35
LB - $26
Buckle - $30
Nice observation...I honestly had no idea the slit was there. I’ve since moved the pouch to my backpack; however, it is still upside down...never been accused of being very smartHey @MathewsMan7 ....ur EWO doyles is upside-down....the end that doesn't have the shockcord opening has a small slit/opening to pull the strap thru down in 1 of the corners. I just noticed looking at ur pics of the mantis and batttlebelt combo
It's there...just maybe not super visible without really looking for it... Tie a stopper knot in the doyles before u untieNice observation...I honestly had no idea the slit was there. I’ve since moved the pouch to my backpack; however, it is still upside down...never been accused of being very smart
