Doyle hoist strap question

[DC10]

I’d like to mark the nylon strap every 3 feet (so, writing 3, 6, 9, 12, etc.) so that once I climb a tree I can see, based on my strap, how high I am.

I tried using different color sharpies but none of them made a visible mark on the strap. Does anyone have any suggestions as to the best way to write on the black nylon strap?

Great idea. I'm going to try that too. I always like to know how high I really am.
Maybe superglue a small piece of colored electrical tape. or sew some threads into it.

I use silver sharpie on my bowstrings all the time. It does wear after a while but lasts a surprisingly long time.

What do you use it on your bowstrings for?

What do you use it on your bowstrings for?

Marking nocking points, kisser button, cam timing. Also to check factory spec on strings.

Also forgot to mention I use it on arrows to number them.

We use silver Sharpie markers all the time at the shop to mark where people's peep sights used to be in there bowstring. They're awesome.
