ICU outdoors
New Member
Hi all! I am brand new to saddle hunting and can't wait for the opener here in Texas. I just found out about saddle hunting and have dove in head first. I'm starting my first season off with a modified sit drag and rock climbing harness. I've spent a chunk of money and time on getting ropes and accessories trying to keep weight and bulk as minimal as possible. I have yet to climb with a lineman rope (my rope should arrive sometime today). I've been watching YouTube and researching a lot. Everyone is swearing by the ropeman but before spending more money on another gadget when I already have rope I can make a prusik with, how much of a pain is it to climb with the prusik? Do you need to constantly be moving the prusik when you climb? Thinking of going this first season with the knot just because I haven't hunted from a saddle and don't want to go to crazy my first season. Any input would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance and happy hunting stay safe!
