Trophyline Backpack/Saddle Pack Suggestions

So I used my Sitka Tool Bucket this year and strapped my saddle platform and sticks to it. Which was good, but not great. The one thing I love about the Sitka packs is top and bottom straps that cinch down for your clothing. I put my bibs on one, jacket on the other.

The only thing I don't love about the saddle on this pack is that it feels like it gets in the way and really crunches it down when you tighten the straps, as well as no waist belt but I can deal with that if I have to. I was thinking about the Trophyline Cays but I'm not sure if it has any place to strap on bibs and jacket? Any suggestions or any advice or input from someone with the trophyline would be great.

The cays does not have what your looking for
I added two straps hanging off the bottom for just that
The pack is solid - packs platform well and good traps to attach sticks on top
The large compartment is huge
Side pockets are nice
With that said - I’m still not in love with it bc the smaller front pockets have some useless space unless you just throw stuff in together- I wish they had smaller compartments to organize
Quality is great and I haven’t found something to switch to yet

Now that I really look at the platow I see it does have cinch straps on top and bottom which would work for what I need. Man if trophyline could do that on the Cays it would be perfect. Honestly thought like you said, for my long walks and saddle hunting, it would force me to take less anyway with the platow like with the tool belt. If I'm just walking to a stand I'll take my tool bucket. I'm going to order a platow when they come back in stock
