Pacseat photos in use with other gear
« on: July 27, 2013, 10:56:00 PM »
I feel very fortunate to have acquired a used Waldrop Pacseat.  I'm looking for photos that show the Pacseat being used as not only a seat but also as a pack frame.
I routinely need to carry gear with me on my back.  I'm looking for ideas for attaching other gear to this incredible seat.

Thanks
Ken Adkins

I've used some bungee cords to attach stuff-like my ghillie suit or a jacket.  I haven't really needed it to haul any really heavy stuff yet.

Just ordered a Waldrop PAC seat myself. Should get it two weeks.  I would enjoy seeing some tips and techniques also. .

I added a couple of pieces of split aluminum pipe for hanging my PAC . I just hang it by the straps. It lifts off easily.
Only other mod is the tennis balls on the front feet.

I don't have photos of it, but I undo my pack straps, run them between the back rest part (see above photo) and re-attach them. Although the above idea once initially done is quicker and quieter probably.

+1 on the tennis balls too. A must on softer ground.

I also use mine to drag deer. With the chest and hip straps dispersing the weight it makes it easy. (almost)   :D

Thanks for those photos macbow!  I've been trying to figure out a way to carry my backpack with that seat ever since I got it.  Did you just screw the pieces to the seat?

I think I screwed them with self tapping screws. But heavy tie wraps would do the job.
PVC pipe would probably be strong enough.

With one simple strap my backpack is safely carried.

I stick other stuff in there as well.

Click on this stupid block put here by photobucket to see picture.

I dont have pics with it loaded on my back.  I know Ron W. and Whip have loaded theirs up with packs and such, perhaps they'll be along?
Relax,

Here's mine loaded up.  It is actually a Blacks Creek Turkey Vest that I attached to the seat.  It carries my ghillie suit, three decoys, and all the misc. stuff that I need like calls, knife, etc, etc.

Where do you buy one of these seats? I haven't seen them before they look great and comfortable.

I think the only way to buy one is to get it directly from Dave Waldrop.  I don't think anyone else sells them anymore, and I couldn't find a website.  But I did find some contact info - I would assume it is still current?
