Anybody use one for carrying platform and sticks? I just ordered one, I’m kind of a minimalist, so I don’t need a big bag, I got the 24L. Looks like I can strap 2 sticks on each side and platform to the front. Curious if anybody else is using one.

Curious to see what your setup would look like.

I use a 24l sandstone 5.11.

Shock cord for extra clothes up top, I put my platform inside along with my mini shikar, I have a water bottle pouch for reppell rope, and a 5 step aider for my single stick. Works great.

Wrong picture. This is the battle belt setup i tried but was too minimal.
 
If you want to go down to 9L ?
5.11 bail out bag
Great for we steps or bolts, with rappel and ROS.
No platform
Or rappel and one stick on nite eyez.

I like it but I’m gonna be carrying 4 mini beast sticks.

Ridge runner platform, tactisaddle gen 1, 8mm linemans and tether, doyles, Nalgene, and I can also fit my fhf chest harness for binos, medium size, I think vortex diamondback. Also have my mini shikar behind the ridge runner.

I have an almost identical pack called Red Rock that I bought at Scheels. My Ridgerunner fits inside nicely and my sticks strap to each side. I think I like it better than my C.A.Y.S pack.
 
So after a couple weeks of tinkering since I got everything, this is what I settled on. Platform is inside the bag, I had it outside with the sticks tightly bungee corded to it, but it stuck out too far.

How heavy is your bag? With everything.

How heavy is your bag when you have everything in/on it?

Never weighed it, under 7# for sure. In a tree right otherwise id grab a fish scale.

Also, after 2020, the first place to cut weight is me.

I use a Hayley Strategic Flatpack Plus. Its light and gets the job done. 4 Beast sticks, Predator platform, straps, saw a few candy bars and water. Everything else I carry in my bino pack. I have plenty a room for more but that’s what I’m trying to avoid

I know it’s been a while but I finally weighed it, 21lb total, which I’m personally happy with. May be heavy for some.
