Big Hyzer Bag- Ergo

[rolinn]

So, here is my black on black ergo. Got it yesterday. Changed it a little as you can see in the pictures.
I have the Nalgene Canteen in it.

Thanks for the pics rolinn. I have some questions though.

I like the handle mod. Is that a paracord wrap?

Love the rainfly snap mod. Why put it so close to the straps? Why not closer to where it'll be a little more easily accessible? (Just curious, not trying to say you made a mistake)

What did you put on the bottom of the inside front pocket and why?

Do the canteens fit in the outer side pockets with a disc in the inner side pocket?

Yes! A friend did it for me. Love it

It´s still easily accessible and gives me more space in that pocket if i leave the rain fly at home.

What did you put on the bottom of the inside front pocket and why?

It´s almost the same material you have in the bottom of the grip bags.
The frame has no contact to the bottom and i hope it makes it a little more durable.

Thank you for the replies. I think we just found the "official" water bottle of the Ergo...

The rainfly mod being closer to the straps definitely keeps you from having a random strap in the pocket when you're not using the rainfly. I was thinking about putting it closer to the discs, but I'm not so sure about that anymore if I want to use that pocket when rain's not in the forecast.

Looks like John should talk to nalgene and make it official.

This is why i did it the way i did it on mine. I used the rain fly on my grip maybe 3 times a year. So i guess it won´t be different with my ergo.

Thanks for the pics! Where did you get the material for the bottom and what measurements did you cut it to?

Kinda looks like junk...

It´s like a really thin camping mat. Got it from my work. its 24x28 cm.

I guess that's a better comment than those in the past that posted the Rolling Stones logo.

Good thing there are so many other bag options for you. :thmbup:

I like the look of the Nalgene canteen.

Does any one have experience with Platypus Softbottles?

Here's the 34 oz. Platypus Plusbottle:

I like the idea, but I have no experience with this product.

I looked at them a couple years ago when I saw them in a thread here but stayed with Nalgenes. I use them as disc retrievers on occasion and didn't trust the bag.

Got my canteens today!

With a putter in the inside pocket(makes it kind of tight):

 

[onemilemore]

Thanks man! Any warping or stress on the disc?

 

[T Strat]

Anyone notice the vertical pockets stretching out a bit? It seems like my first round I had 17 that were in there as tight as they could be, now I have 19 with room for 2-3 more.

 

[tbird888]

It's a super tight fit but 5 will fit in the top slot of mine. They're definitely stretching. The side pockets are too. It wasn't easy to slide in a Polecat, but it is now. To be honest, the outer side pocket has stretched more than anything from constantly having a Nalgene in the inner side pocket.

Every bag I've owned has stretched so I figured the same would happen with this one.

 

[discddwn]

Thanks man! Any warping or stress on the disc?

It's pretty tight on my putter. Its a medium wizard so fairly difficult to warp.

 

[onemilemore]

How about if you flip the disc the other way? I am really just trying to decide between these ones or the Nalgene...

 

[tbird888]

Anyone kicked around any ideas for dual Camelbaks? I haven't given up yet.

Onemore mile - check the last pic in rolinn's dropbox link - he has the disc in "backwards" with the canteen:

Thanks. I did see that one, but I think he is using the Nalgene. Kinda hoping the cheaper ones work as well either way...
