Latitude Method dump pouch attachment

Planning to begin saddle hunting this fall and interested in Latitude Method saddle but wondering how dump pouches would be carried by upper row of molle attachments when lower panel is attached to top panel when walking in/out of woods. Seems overlap would interfere. Anyone have a Method and some feedback?
Thank you!
 
You just feed your attachment piece from top of molle down and let it hook on bottom of molle. Then the bottom panel will slide up in-between the pouch and top panel. Works just fine I have two pouches on mine never had any trouble using as designed. Then I got my Doyle's in a dano fleece bag on the lower panel.

Thank you, guess it was a dumb question. I was thinking the molle attachments overlapped when the panels were connected. How do you like it so far? Have you used other saddles and, if so, how does it compare? Pros/Cons of design.
This is all new to me. Been bowhunting for 35+ yrs and never heard of saddle hunting until 2 mos ago. DIYing a sit/drag to begin with but quite sure I'm going to love saddlehunting so already trying to choose a commercially made one.
Thanks for you help!
 
I really like it. For me it is the most comfortable I have used. I have had a aero flex, tethrd phantom and trophyline ambush lite. Just make sure you give yourself some time to get used to it and try a bunch of different settings in bridge tether and panel positions. Once I found my sweet spot it was just amazing. The thing is a dream to walk in and out with don't notice it is there most of the time. Depends how much weight you got stuffed in your pouches. I don't plan on replacing this one. If they come out with a bigger size I will probably get one for late season when wearing bulkier clothes. I couldn't be happier with it really.

Sounds like the answer is yes but you feel the method is more comfortable than the phantom? I currently have the phantom and after a season of use I just can’t get it comfortable. Torn between the method and the cruzr to try next.

OP, sorry, not trying to hijack, seemed like you and I had similar questions.
 
Can't help you with the cruzr never tried one. I didn't mind the phantom. I didn't think it was bad for the size of it. The flex was comfortable just alittle bulky walking around in especially in the brush. I could not stand the ambush lite absolutely despised the 2 inch bridge and bridge angle. The leg straps were a pain not being able to sinche them up also. I run the method with no leg straps I really like that configuration with the method.

Thanks Mopar, now my only decision is buckle or rope belt. I like the idea of a secondary attachment for safety especially if I ever try one-sticking. The rope knot also looks bulkier than the buckle so leaning toward the buckle version. What is your waist size? The only knock I've heard is for bigger guys may be a bit short? I'm a 32-33" so should fit me well.
 
I have the metal less version. But I have no plans of ever one sticking or rappelling. I would rather carry a couple extra pounds then mess around with that in the dark. The good thing about the method is if you don't like the buckle you can switch out to the rope belt. I am about a 37-38 waist. So about on the edge of it being to small.

Thanks again for all your feedback! Season just ended and already can't wait for the next!

No problem, hope it works out good for you. I am switching more to a hybrid system. I ordered a beast stand and am gonna use my method as a harness then hang from the saddle when it makes sense and sit when it makes sense too. If I gotta make a shot behind me just tighten tether and make the shot. Good luck this coming season.

They are coming out with a bigger size this spring.
