Denis, nice looking bag and I do like using vinegaroon as well.  Good job.  What was your thought process when you made this a double pouch and the determing factors to make it at this size?

The reason is to be able carry a bottle of water and some food for the day when i go out for big game. I won't need to carry another bag or fill my pockets and will also use it for small game . I don't think  i would go bigger than this, than we try to bring the kitchen sink . This is my first personalized bag the center hold my initials.I attempt to think out of the box and try a different approach  and will also use it for my shooting bag for now. I am thinking out my next project for smaller bag but for shooting only and also a canvas bag after Mr Albert article in the muzzleloader it would be a nice addition.

Nice thoughts and thanks for sharing.  I can understand making something slightly larger (or smaller) than what we think as norm.  It certainly looks well made and should last a lifetime.

Hi Mark, are you talking about that small pocket on the the shoulder strap. If so ,  i made it for my gps and when i use it as a shooting bag i will use it for shooting garbage. For it's originality can't answer that.  But you know if somebody needed it in some form or another they would put it on if it would make it easier for them for some reason or another.
