Ok guys, I have a quick video at the tree loading up, will probably take an hour. In the mean time, I'm playing with the hybrid trying to eliminate pack space needed, and attaching things i'll use on the hunt directly to the seat.
Thermacell goes first, since thermacell rules life down here. The standoff for when the Hybrid is a turkey chair(did we mention its also a badass turkey chair?!?!) fits a thermacell beautifully. Right where you need it too! I probably won't walk in with it there, unless I can make it a little more snug of a fit. We'll see its pretty convenient.
I attached my doyle's hoist to the bottom webbing frame of the seat. I would have liked it on the inside of the webbing, but when you're sitting in the chair, it would dig into back of your leg. This is still an awesome place to stow it, you'll see in video too.
And for your EZKut/Woodpecker guys - nice place to store drill for walking. Talk with
@Nutterbuster for his tip on storing it while climbing...
Stepp guys, stepps lay across the bottom nicely.
Best part is you can take them out without pulling stand off your back. You can rig up a little piece of paracord to hold the seat back at an angle open, but still up, and just slide the stepps out and sling bag over your shoulder. I don't have a picture of the paracord mod yet, I'm tinkering and think I'm going to dual purpose my gear hanger you see in the video. Moot point If you're packing in layers and have to dress. But I am 100% positive at this point I can walk up to a tree and start climbing and hunting without taking anything off, and setting only my bow on the ground.
I'll post the video once it uploads.
