This is helpful, so you are installing the snaps yourself and making the molle attachments? I have been sewing mine in with buckles and I am not a big fan of the design I came up with so far to be honest. Do you worry about the snaps coming undone if it gets caught on something going up the tree. How do the pouches ride on the saddle with the placement of the horizontal strap.

sorry guys but side bar:
@shwacker Why are you on the internet in ALASKA? you there for work or vacation? we need some pics!!!!!!!!!!
man I use a shoe bag I stole from my wife - it's soft like fleece totally silent and collapses when empty so it's always laying flat - love the simplicity of it - I just added molle strips to it and it hooks to the back of my kestrel
I put my design and info in a new thread to not overwhelm this one with pics and bury the info here.

Ok, prototype #2 is much smaller and I like the size. Very compact and non-bulky. Meant to put prototype #1 here but accidentally spammed @skell’s thread listed above. This one is @skell’s pattern but changed the starting fabric size to 18x10. Also for the bottom corners only came in 1 1/2” instead of 2.
Finished size is approx 6.5” x 6.5” x 3” and I can easily fit my tether with Ropeman and carabiner.
Let me know your thoughts.
The fleece is dead quiet - these won't last a lifetime but should hold up for quite a few years.
My pouches last year were about 7.5" tall by 8.5" wide. This new one is only 6.5"-7" tall so there's not a whole lot of flop happening. I might try @skell's design with the molle straps too just for comparison.
