Daytrip hunts and packs when using trad bows

Hi all just wondering what day packs and water carriers youall use when hunting with tradbows; i guess my concern is that the shoulder straps and the tube for the water bladder could interfere with the string when drawing the bow and taking the shot.
I can use any with my compound as its only a 30"ata and as you know has a sharp string angle so it doesnt catch on things.
Please let me know.
Cheers

Never had a problem with hoses with 66" longbow.
I find the tag-ends of the shoulder straps sometimes catch the string so I just tuck them into my pants or something.

Ian I have used a CamelBak Mule and a G Fred Asbell quiver on quite a number of hunting trips and have had no problems with either interfering with my shooting with my longbows and self bows.
