Has anyone used this? Trying to give the wife ideas for Christmas. I want the Doyles hoist but this is half the price and seems to work that same. https://www.amazon.com/Boomerang-Re...ment/dp/B0088MQAS8?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1&psc=1
If I'm reading this correctly, looks like the large version (XL) only has a 48 inch line. That might not get you very far up tree.Has anyone used this? Trying to give the wife ideas for Christmas.

I had this one. It came unstitched while hoisting up my bow. I contacted hawk and they could have cared less.
I saw that as well. Where did you get the dump pouch from? I also thought I saw somewhere someone was selling a “custom” made one on here with a grommet for the cord to slide through, but I could be wrong.I got the idea from DIY Sportsman to cut a hole for the cord at the bottom of my dump pound and the hoist sits flat at the bottom of the pouch. This keeps it out of the way so it isn't banging on things and it's always attached to me.
I just went through this, trying to figure out what I wanted. I love the idea of the doyles, but don't want the weight. Looked at that Allen's, and too many bad reviews. Looked at different dog leashes, and they were all also heavy.
I ended up going with the HSS hoist. No, it's not auto retrieve, but I think it should work ok. Gotta be better than the 40ft of dyneema I use now. That stuff tangles so easy and wraps around everything it touches. Love it for a pull down rope, but hate pulling up my bow on it.

I use 40’ of dyneema myself. I get so tired of it wrapping around my arrows and stabilizer. I figured out if I lay my bow quiver down on the ground it’s not as bad. The worst part is the tangling in the brush. I’m going a different way next yr.

yeah it's cheap, but it's light and it works. I retie them and put a s-biner on it off the get go. wish it was 40ft instead of 30.I had this one. It came unstitched while hoisting up my bow. I contacted hawk and they could have cared less.
I usually go higher than 3ft, probably wouldn't work in thatHas anyone used this? Trying to give the wife ideas for Christmas. I want the Doyles hoist but this is half the price and seems to work that same. https://www.amazon.com/Boomerang-Re...ment/dp/B0088MQAS8?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1&psc=1
