    Bow hanger "cam it" copy

    I mentioned earlier in the thread, I may or may not be running a camera. filming from a saddle my bow gets in the way of swinging the camera arm when it’s against the tree. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I have one of those and it doesn’t get my bow far enough away from the tree. I like it at least 6” away. It’s all personal preference

    XOP stick failure

    Nope and I won’t be using them. XOP still hasn’t replied to me and my muddy sticks they ordered have been on backorder since this happened in October. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I used it some but it needed a little geometric tweaking on the base. It didn’t cam as tightly as I would like. I may still abandon the idea but haven’t decided. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I went with muddy pro sticks. I like the rope system and dual steps. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    XOP stick failure

    After sending my pictures to xop I was very impressed at how they handled it. Almost to the point of suspicion, maybe I could have soaked them for more but that's not how I am and I wasn't badly injured so I just went with it. They offered replacement sticks or full refund. Then came back and...

    XOP stick failure

    I have contemplated that style but I have been keeping my sticks locked together and have a sling on the stick I hang last. Then the platform in in my pack and the bow is the only thing on the pull rope. I'll be moving to something other than xop so it will be a new learning curve. Sent from...

    XOP stick failure

    Yes I'll post a good picture soon. That piece that broke is extruded aluminum and it is bolted at the top with the step. I have better modifications I could do but that wouldn't help the issue any way. They need to come up with something and send it out or issue me a full refund. I have zero...

    XOP stick failure

    Well this morning I experience a stick failure first hand. Luckily it was the bottom step on my 1st stick that failed while I was getting my next stick ready. I was wearing my linemans belt and only 3 ft off the ground but the experience has me pretty shook up and ticked off. I only had some...

    I should also say that I film my hunts and need the bow away from the tree. I use a fourth arrow arm and I am still playing with the setup. Anyway, having my bow farther from the tree is preferred. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Thanks, I only have an angle grinder and a Hobart 140 mig welder but I make due. If I had machine shop access like when I was in the Navy it would look much better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bow hanger "cam it" copy

    I am a diy kinda guy at heart but due to limited time I tend to buy products that are available. I am new to saddle hunting and fairly new to public land hunting so my gear is ever evolving. I liked the idea of the cam it but when I searched online it seems that they are no longer available for...

    Fatter gear hauling line?

    What scent free deodorant do you use?

    The hunting industry has reaped the rewards of my money for far too long. Speed stick unscented and unscented soaps as John E. has described are all I use for the last several years. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
