Adding a hydration bladder to Jx3

I am looking for ideas for adding a hydration bladder to the Jx3. I will be using 4 standard beast sticks and placing them between the back and the seat for carrying in and out. I'm not sure if I will have enough room to attach the bladder above where the sticks will be or not.
 
I toyed with adding a bladder between frame and mesh when I first got the hybrid. I didn’t like it. The beauty of the mesh is the breathability. Bladder killed that sticking to your back.

i now use one of several small packs that go between the frame and seat - and in that I have a bladder or bottle depending on amount of water needed. I don’t carry sticks, but if I did and wanted them in between seat and frame I would just flip the bag to hang on outside of the seat.

That is good info. Thank you for the reply. I will try to attach the bladder horizontally to the back of the frame as high as I can. If the sticks can fit under it will be sweet.

I was checking out your YouTube channel. Do you have a video of how you are attaching the doyles hoist?
 
I have added a Handi-pak to my JX3 for packing out meat. It has a small pocket on it that fits the bladder from my Badlands pack perfectly.

I don’t have a great picture of it, but the pocket I’m talking about is where that white tag is.

That is really interesting. Have you packed out a deer with it? If so how did the it go?
