Pac seat mods
« on: September 29, 2023, 05:59:31 PM »
  Have not been out hunting yet due to hot weather and cataract surgery. It I’m always trying to think ahead to make it a better experience! I mounted a cat quiver lll on my Waldrop seat. Took a bit thinking but I think I got it.  Now just grab the seat and my bow and off we go !

I used cable ties. Leather strap and lace and 2 carabiners. I had to drill 2 holes in the hood !

I mounted an old Simmons quiver and a drink pouch on mine. Also have a seat pad from an old tree stand that fits perfectly

Just got done modifying the strap that adjust the amount of lean. Kinda stole the idea of the Amstel ropes some guys are using on hang on steps and stands. Anyway I used parachord cause that’s what I had. A steel would be better and I may change it to a steel in the future. Anyway I drilled a hole in the front bar and put in a #10 bolt with a piece of tubing about 3/8 long at the head so the chord didn’t rub against the threads on the bolt. Made a daisy chain fron the parachord and did away with the strap and buckle. I think the pictures will explain everything.

I love it!! On mine i Got rid of all the buckles, and all the pins, and no waist belt..took 2-1/2" off the folding leg so it lets the front legs dig in while folded for tree leaning use..and the folding leg strap just floats around the corner if you still wanna fold it to the upright position..shoulder straps lower attachment is now in-between the hinge point using the 1/4" bolt..upper attachment is also now bolts..look ma no hands! :o
