Because of the holes on the Beast Sticks, you may be able to figure out a j-hook type system with Beast Sticks to secure them vertically. It would differ from what is shown here in a LWCG system though, not only because of the advantageous grommet/port alignment, but because of the way Beast Sticks stack. The high stacking profile would cause interference with the seat shelf, so they’d have to be turned so the standoffs are pointing towards the outside. I don’t love it, but it could be made to work I. You’d still have to run stick attachment rods for stick-stick connection, or maybe design a U-hook that is spaced to run through both sticks or something like that Instead of a J-hook like LWCG has.
Im thinking my bungees would be fine. No?

Those brackets would catch on everything i walk by.
i hunt in super thick stuff. I couldn't stack them like that. Would catch on everythng

Well, horizontal doesn’t look too good for that.

Me too, spruce swamps and berry briar clear cuts that would send a rabbit running for his life, I just measured and it’s 14” wide across where those stick standoffs are hanging on that stand, they ride behind my shoulders pretty good but I definitely understand where your coming from I hate stuff grabbing my stand on the sneak in.

This is the minis, i ran the lwcg minis with cable aiders all last season and liked them alot but these mini beast sticks are great. Benefits are no messing with j hooks, cable aiders, moving parts, and the added benefit of a double step and the ability to use a multi step moveable aider.

Great setup but that's too high for where i go and im always ducking underneath stuff. Thst would grab things like a third had. Great idea but would never work fir me.
I will say this. Be careful man i know guys who had packed everything tge same way and fell.
got serious cuts in two places. One in the back of his neck snd a serious head gash from the stick bracket. I would really be careful running them like that.

Yes its definately something ive took into consideration and being careful with. They strap to the seat without hanging out the sides too far as well. Sounds like you need to wait for the redesigned lwcg double steps to come out!

Im not sure but im hoping this year because ill probably pick up a set. Theres no denying lwcg is the best system and those doubles pack awesome. I just want to see a lower versabutton and maybe some changes to the standoffs

Sweet setup man
Thanks, The 3 sticks are 8lb with buckles and straps with the new beast stand should all be 15 lbs and they don't snag on any thing!!

I run two full length sticks with 22in cable aiders. Very similar to your setup. I’m probably going with 2 full length lwcg to pair with my .5, i think the system makes it worth it.
Thanks bro. Appreciate it

They look really long, the sticks actually sit even with my butt. I'm happy with the way it works as a system.
