    Get yourself some elastic cargo nets for $5 and you have an instant way to secure gear to your stands or packs. Being an old biker from way back, I couldnt imagine life without these nets. Also, get yourself some cheap Fieldline fanny packs(we all have these laying around) and strip down the accessories off of them and attach these to your stand seats for easy access to grunt tubes, the can, snacks, etc. I zip strip them on. Works gr8. Also get yourself a cheap fieldline pack and zipstrip this or cable clamp it to your stands for easy transport. Way more comfy than the most expensive shoulder straps you can buy.

    HC,

    I do the same with the wal-mart fieldline small pouches on my climber. They are great for keeping items you mentioned and I tie my bow rope to the top section of the climber and always keep that tucked in one of the pouches. That way you never forget it. Where do you get the cargo nets for $5?

    I don't take a lot of stuff in with me now a days, if it can't fit in my pocket, I don't need it. With that said, I love the cargo net idea, excellent for easily attaching my warm gear when hiking in deep. Thanks!
