Hi Skip:

Good call, I left that out, the strap is too narrow just by itself.

They should have used the wider webbing.  Loaded, it can dig into your
shoulder a bit, vs. many of the other bags which have the wider strap.  I'd
recommend a Domke Post-office pad on the F6 (I have a couple and they've
served me very well over the years.)
