Horizontally across the seat and use the cam strap from the stand to secure them.
Just was thinking on the seat would be like carrying the beast sticks on the beast stand? Do they get caught up on brush that way?

Thanks, I saw that. I have 2 of the 14" sticks and I have not used them enough to see if this is going to be an issue.
If I did this mod, I think I would try to find a machinist.

Haven’t had a problem. Catch less than stacking vertically. They are also way lower profile on the stack than beast sticks

Do you have any pictures of how you strap the sticks down? Thanks

This is how I do it. More than 3 sticks I go to the button like this but probably can just go around the seat instead. This seems the most secure but a little more work to get all the slack out. Also, with a pouch under the seat this works better.

Thanks that's what I needed to know! It's probably a little better with the .75 with the bigger seat. I think it would work with the .5 I'm gonna use 5 sticks maybe 6 in hill country. Can't beat one sticks 6 lbs for 6 sticks really like them!!

The regular strap doesn't work as well on the .5 probably because of the size of the seat and dosen't have the hook on the back of the post.

That’s not a hook. That’s the versa button

Ok I didn't notice that at first! I thought the .75 had some thing different. I really like the sticks just wish they packed better. I really liked my older .5 I had with the 17in dubblestep if they were 1lb and didn't kick out they would be the perfect setup for me.
