ah i didnt think about that angle, good call. with my 4 metal beast sticks i'd separate my sticks pre-climb, hang one, hang the second low/loose to get it on the tree in a place where i could grab it/ move it up to where i wanted once on the first stick, and use paracord loops on my saddle to dangle one off the left the other off the right. didnt even think about how one could climb withthe whole thing as a package so that makes more sense now.Seems like every stick would benefit from a system that keeps them secure but let’s you remove one stick at a time as you climb. All sticks pack well enough when they’re strapped to my pack. I think the issue is how I would get them up the tree when I’m climbing.
