first let me lead off by saying i am not an experience kifaru guy. i do however know..and even still learning that there really isnt a right way or a wrong way to run a kifaru system. there are still mystery tabs and clips that i have ZERO idea what they are for.
i've been on two hunts with my pack. it looks filthy!! hiking thru burns with a gray bag..yuck.
anyways. i like the strap kit i bought, and i LOVE the grab it. i just wrestled with what to do with both items when i didnt need them. i tried stuffing them into a pocket. hated wasting the space and not remembering where i stowed it. i tried leaving them clipped into position. getting into pockets while dodging the accessories..was not fun.
leave them at home? oh, no..not with how much i paid for straps. haha.
i pulled out the bag and explored my options. EUREKA!! strap storage was head slapping easy. i ran them vertical on each side of the bag and pulled out the slack!! they are now stored ready for use!! the grab it..took more brain power. i got it stowed away. i unclipped it from the sides..left it clipped on the bottom and ran it backwards..it rides between the bag and frame. i simply clipped it back onto the triangle clips and viola!! you dont even know they are there!!
hope this helps any newbies...any veterans think i am doing it wrong or have a better idea that works..i am all ears.
wish i got straps in a different color. might make it easier to find in the dark..in a sea of gray.
