    Trophyline ambush pro just released today

    I spoke to a tropyline rep. Both straps are to be used on the bridge not one.

    Tropyline bridge buckle.

    I have the pro version of the tropyline saddle and not sure how I feel about the metal buckle attached to the fixed web bridge. I mostly lean so most of my weight is in my legs but still iffy about the strength. I'm sure it's tested and can't get a great answer on how strong it's been tested to...

    Staying warm in extreme cold.

    Great info there,I have a question tho..I was thinking about getting coveralls but worried it might hinder my climbing ability at all..have you had any problems? Also are they comfortable when using a saddle?..figured I would ask before I commit..

    1 stick climbing method

    I guess there are many ways to get up a tree and everybody has their preference but for me being a 250lb bodybuilder I would be drenched by the time I was done :lol: ..Also for me I would be second guessing myself if I made to much noise setting up ,again that's just me and I sure some of you...

    1 stick climbing method

    I agree,walking to your tree a mile in at 4am then needing to hike up a tree with the one stick method and sweating all the way up would be the last thing I'd do..keep it simple and pre set with steps and focus on the hunt..

    They sell cork wrap for fishing rods that I use for my platform steps,I do some rod building and found it takes that little ping out when your moving around the tree..

    Climbing spurs..

    Yeah I would be kinda iffy about that too..sounds like a good idea to use them but your input changed my mind lol..

    Climbing spurs..

    Anybody have any experience with these?.i think they would be perfect for hunting from a saddle and never to worry about climbing sticks or steps again.few issues though,will they be noisy and inter fear with the platform around the tree? Your thoughts?

    Screw in tree steps

    I have been using screw ins exclusively for a while,usually I take in 20 to the tree I'm setting up in with a rubber hammer to get them started and on my way up.At the top where I stand I use 4steps around the tree at the same level so have 360 shooting.when I leave I take the bottom 4/5 out so...

    What methods do you use to strap in the tree??

    I tried a few different ways to tie in and finally settled on a set of 2 military cargo straps that are easy to adjust,quiet and super strong..I use one strap around the tree and the other looped into my harness with a carabiner..
