It's pretty obvious I've been putting out a lot of info lately. As my season gets closer I've thrown it into high gear and been rehearsing climbing methods, weeding out unnecessary items, cyber mapping areas I've already physically scouted and so on. With the massive influx of new saddle hunters on here I thought it would be a good idea to video some of my yearly preparation and DIY projects to help those out who may need it. With all that I've recently received some Tethrd mini versa straps in the mail and thought it would be relevant to post about them. As a saddle hunter, I am always harping on multi use gear. In my opinion, if you want to get lighter and simpler multi use gear is a must. You can't get all necessary items to do more than one job, but there are certainly things that can and I think it's important to capitalize on those items when you can. The mini versa straps are super lightweight and simple. When paired with a carabiner they can do many things for you. Many times all you need is one. Here are some of the uses I have found using just one mini versa and a carabiner:
Platform strap
Stick strap
Gear hanger
LWHC adjustable recovery strap
LWHC adjustable foot loop aider
Wild Edge step adjustable foot loop Aider
Temporary tie in point
Swaider
CAYG Aider
Gear Lashing
Deer drag
I am sure the longer I have them I will discover more uses for them. That's not bad for 12 bucks. Keep in mind, more than one of those uses can be done one right after the other using only one strap and carabiner. I know the website says a mini can be used with a predator. It can, but it's a tight fit over the predator button and takes some effort. If I bought them to use with a predator, I'd go a size up.
