I have a Summit Bushmaster and I made 2 modifications to mine. First I replaced the factory straps with nice comfortable ones and second I turn the straps upside down so the stand cable are pointed up. I'm about 5'5" so if I carry the stand the way most normal people do the cables drag on the ground, with the cable above my head nothing drags and I just have to duck under low branches from time to time. A lot of things arn't made to cater to short people so I have become a pro at modifying things to make them fit!!
