My practice tree is not ideal (which makes it a good practice tee).
Lots of gaps in the bark and not perfectly round.
I'm wondering it there is something (not noisy) that could be attached to the Tag end to make it easier to pull AND to keep it from pulling through the buckle.
A small Buckle would be the easiest (and would be adjustable).
justsomedude said:I just tied an overhand knot in the end and that gave me a 'handle' and it won't add any noise.
It seems like I just need to get good at tightening the buckle when it is on the other side of the tree.
The knot helped that.

I have three old loggy bayous that I only use as hang-ons now, they all have the cam over buckle straps. They may get re-purposed now for my brothers and I....and I'll just get ratchets for the loggys!
Very good idea guys!

Curious to see 6 on a smaller tree.
I tried it on a 15-16" diameter and it was nice having that many.
