Made some attatchments to hold my sticks to my saddle as i climb up the tree. They hold really well and sticks are easy to get out but do not fall out easily.

I tied a small paracord loop to my hawk stick and clip it to a grimloc on my saddle.

Couldn’t tell from the pics. How are you connecting it to the stick? Around the button?

In my experience if it's not flat it will create a pressure point after a few hours sitting, definitely more on your sides because of how the bridge attaches its hip pinchx2.. . I went with the kydex molle j hooks from @DanO

It has a small loop on the other end. Run it through the molle and through the small loop

What are you talking about? I have no issues with hip pinch from a simple grimlok.

I said pressure point not hip pinch.. hip pinch comes with all saddles

There is a very good reason why molle attachment straps are flat and biggest reason is to avoid pressure points on a waist belt..

Its a flat strap against the saddle. Shouldnt create a pressure point. And they take seconds to remove if needed

The molle loop on the flex isn’t flat to the waist belt. I don’t notice any pressure point.

I was referring to the D ring carabiner.. your strap will create no pressure point. If any it would definitely be less than the kydex j hooks. My point in response is saying that anything can create a pressure point. Sit in a saddle all day with your shirt seam bundled and itll get uncomfortable quick. Not arguing with anyone's method and if your hunting a few hours it'll probably be unnoticeable.

It looks like there is a magical floating deer skull with painters tape on the rack in the last two pics
 
Ya. I did sponge method paint job on it

Nice, do you have to remove the strap or amsteel from the versabutton to use that?

I do something similar with paracord, but I clip it to kydex clips on the molle waist band of the pack I climb up with.


They didn't grab the paracord tightly enough for me stock (during a test climb, I knocked a stick free when it hit my leg), but you can soak them in hot water and bend the kydex easily to make them tighter or looser.
 
When I climb with sticks I use these.....loop the shock cord around the stick.... I use those little things to hold lots of things....very useful little piece of plastic

 
I use the kydex clips on the molle of the saddle and use niteize gear ties to hold the sticks. I think the rubber coating on the niteize holds the sticks in place. I haven't had a problem.
