clips or keeper?

want to install either plastic paddle clips or bungie style keeper. I guess each has its advantages. What do most use?

I have a 2 yaks, one with each of those styles of paddle clip. With the bungie type I can stash and remove the paddle with one hand. My other yak has 2 clips that need to be fastened. These take 2 hands and take longer. Mike

Thats more or less what I was thinking. Probably a little harder to try and snap in paddle with one hand on the clips (depending on how far apart).

Keeper. You can always use it to hold your gaff and/or fishing poles as well.

Bungie keeper for all the above reason plus clips will loosen or break in time and need to be replaced.
