Think of it as shooting a bow and arrow.Where would you put the weight on the arrow,in the front or the back?Arrows get wobbly with weight in the back.

We don't want the tail telling the dog what to do.....

I pack with heavy stuff(sleeping bag/tent/water) low in front.Lightweight stuff(clothes/food/first aid/kitchen) in back/on top of rack if need be.I carry tent poles and sleeping mat on top of the rear rack,the lightest "big" things I carry.
