Who deploys a Doyles gear hoist from the inside of their pack?

I love my Doyles gear hoist just not on my saddle(which is where it resides now) because it interferes with how my pack sits. and I don't like it on the waist band of my pack. Does anyone deploy it from inside their pack? I recall it being mentioned before but not on an instructional level (Flingin?) Just want to know if anyone is doing it, and how exactly you have it running thru the pack. A grommeted eye perhaps? Do you fasten it inside the bottom of the pack so it doesn't shift around? Any help would be appreciated. If there's an easier way than a grommeted eye on the bottom of the pack and duct tape to hold it in place, I'm all ears. Thanks

Pretty sure @Nutterbuster runs one in his pack.
 
I used to have doyles inside my pack with a grommet until @DanO started making the doyles fleece pouch

I just run it out a grommet in the bottom. Never have go around to securing it in any way. Havent needed to
 
I run mine through the bottom of a water bottle pocket on the side of my pack. works awesome.
 
I run mine through the inside of my pack. Addtionally I did install a eyelet to renforce the hole in the pack. I don't even consider it part of my gear anymore it sits in the pack.
 
Saddle. Clipped to mantis, clipped to backpack, in backpack pocket or in in syshauler.
Stand. Clipped to safety harness, clipped to backpack, in backpack pocket.
In the saddle, my preferred method is the sys hauler.
In a stand, my preferred method is to use the lifeline to bring my pack up and a 1/4" rope to bring my bow up. If I don't have a 1/4" run, I will put the Doyles in the backpack pocket. Then I pull the backpack up with the lifeline and then the bow with the doyles.
Pulling the pack and the bow up at the same time is easy with the lifeline but a little harder with the doyles.
 
I have an entrenchment tool pouch on my saddle. It has a grommeted hole on the bottom. My Doyle’s lives there. The rope runs through the hole and I replaced the Doyle’s plastic attachment contraption on the end of the rope with a horizontal bar off a Lone Wolf pull up rope.

Mine lives in the little pouch on the side. It has a hole on the bottom that works perfectly.
 
Not a gear hoist, but I just stick my tow line in a flash grenade pouch I picked up on amazon. Theres a grommeted hole in the bottom, I just ran the tag end of my rope through and knotted it. No problem holding 25ft of paracord in it

I use danOs fleece pouch on the outside off my pack. I have been messing around with it on the inside of my pack but haven't figured out how to secure it.
