Not sure if this goes here or somewhere else but sorry if it’s In wrong spot.

I have a cabelas elite scout pack and looking to attatch hawk minis (3). Anyone and any experience with this or suggestions? Trying to avoid buying another pack as I like this pack especially for ground sits in PA….I could buy another and set it up for saddle but I’d rather roll with one if I can smartly …
 
im thinking bottom. the problem with up top is the top buckle and the front pouch are quite flimsy. and the bottom strap is only adjustable and I think I may rip my mesh pockets....im gonna give the bottom a whirl and see how it goes. thats for the message! honestly completely over looked the bottom I think cuz I was so stuck on hanging vertically.

How did it turn out? I'm trying to figure out the same thing. Thx
 
I sent my pack to Mike Isbell, BMG, for some extra straps on the side and front. Then I put kydex inserts on the side to stiffen it up some. Added some stick talons so I could pull as I climb. Works really good for me. Good luck
 
Top flap for platform, side straps/talons for EWO or Tethrd sticks

^^^ Yes, like [mention]Cbigbear [/mention], when I carry 3 sticks I keep them separate with one on each side and one in the middle. Mainly because I hate stacking and unstacking sticks. I use nite ize gear ties to attach them to my pack - quiet, quick and easy.
 
I’m thinking new pack. I wanted to carry separate. If I carry on bottom of my current pack then I’ll have to carry together. Man this saddle thing got expensive
