Where to attach climbing sticks

So I’ve been trying to get a climbing system down

I need to carry up 3 beast sticks after I place my 1st stick up
I have a sys hauler on my left side and my predator platform on a molle loop in the center
Where are you guys attaching the other sticks?
 
For me, first stick goes on the tree, second stick attaches to the top step of the first stick, 3rd stick attached to my left hip in between my sys hauler and my lineman’s loop with a nitize gear tie, 4th stick goes in the same spot on my right hip. Platform attached with a nitize on the back of my saddle.

Agreed unless you have a whole lot of aider action , I like to get my first two sticks going at ground level so I’m only toting 2. Now the second stick isn’t set but I’m not attaching it to me just to fiddle with it on my first move.

This is the answer but using kydex j hooks and some paracord instead of nitize
 
I use three all with aiders, first goes on the tree. #2/3 get attached to my belt via s clips, can get 18' in about a minute.
 
Paracord loops on the saddle. First stick goes on the tree then the others hang loose from the saddle till needed
 
Paracord loops for me connected to saddle molle loops. 1 on each hip. Need to be very careful climbing to not make noise with them dangling from the hips. Don’t love that aspect but it works.

Same for me, kydex. I prefer not to try and set my second from the ground because I lose height I would get with my movable aider. So I hook the second on the upper step of the first stick and the other two go on the hooks

The small diameter bungee cord cut to length works better than paracord with any application since it can be sized to hold the sticks tighter to your side or hip.
