    Mystery Ranch Pop Up 28

    I tried but only made it 100 yards before giving up and making two trips. After the shot, I went back to my truck to empty my pack, grab game bags and knives and got to work. The buck was over 200 lbs and I couldn't fit the entire deer in the pack. I loaded up my pack with 4 quarters + back...

    Snapped platform

    I took this as a sign telling me to buy a predator. I hope my backup doesn't let me down while I wait for delivery.

    Snapped platform

    Never been dropped. This platform is about a year old. No one asked but I wasn't jumping on it when it snapped. I was doing a demo showing the different shooting positions. I was in position for shooting the 6 o'clock or "drop shot" position so I did have all my weight on the edge.

    Dual purpose linemans belt and tether

    I am not suggesting unhooking at all. I think there has got to be a way to stay hooked up at all times and use one line for both applications. I've seen this community come up with some very creative solutions to common problems. I believe a solution is out there. We just need to find it.

    Dual purpose linemans belt and tether

    I'm considering shedding my dedicated tether and using my linemans belt for both applications. I know there has got to be a reason why the saddle hunting community uses a dedicated line for each but what is the reason? I know there could be a few seconds when you're switching between the two...
