I’m using hawk helium sticks and a predator platform. I’m wanting to upgrade to a easier and quieter attachment method.
Which do you prefer?

That’s what I was afraid of. What all have you tried for the platform? I hate the buckle straps, but I don’t want to waste money trying new things.Amstel daisy chains for steps, still using the tetherd belt for the platform…. I haven’t found anything better for the platform. I’ve tried several different things.

Do you use it on the platform and sticks? I tried it with sticks and had issues getting them tight. It saga a lot and the bottom of the sticks are able to kick out.I use the daisy chain webbing from EWO. Light, simple, quiet and super cheap. Rock solid on the tree.

With the webbing straps the key is that you must angle the stick/platform when attaching and then straighten and pull tight. You can also use the same technique the amsteel daisy chain guys use to loop back through a loop and take out the slack.Do you use it on the platform and sticks?

I’m also having trouble finding a way to carry sticks and platform. I don’t want to carry a pack just to carry them.I have the same set up. Also struggling with figuring the best way to pack in my sticks. I do have the amsteel daisy chain on the sticks and love it. I actually don’t mind the ratchet on the predator. I just camo’ed it up and probably going to leave it the way it is for now.

I just have a cheap Walmart camp pack. It has straps on sides, front and bottom but it’s so flimsy that it doesn’t work well. I used a bow sling to carry my sticks. It worked well but didn’t help with the platform.What kind of pack are you using? I have a timber hawk big basin backpack, nothing special but it does have a perfect pouch on the front for the predator. Not sure how to hold my sticks though and that is my problem, was thinking a ratchet or some kind of strap. Or a new bag lol but trying to get by with this one for this season at least
