Do you believe those are better for the sticks than say a rope mod with amsteel or the climbing rope used. Sorry just getting all the information I need. Last year I waiting too long to start researching. The year before was a first for saddle hunting and I spent all year trying to find a climbing method that worked for me. I started out with gaffs. Then went to sticks. Once I found sticks were more to my liking I began researching which method of attachment was best and never have came up with a good answer

I don’t like the Amsteel daisy chains. I have used Amsteel for ropemod for years. I think the versastraps back way better but are somewhat frustrating using as intended. I use them as a ropemod. The EWO woven daisy straps I use as intended on my EWO sticks.

Do you use the regular vests straps or the mini for the sticks ?

I use the mini versa straps for shikars and ridge runner. The frustration with them (for me) is that it can be difficult getting them opened while up in a tree. I decided to scrunch them on a dowel to make it easier to separate and get on the stick. I left them there for a couple weeks.

They are pretty crumpled up. When wrapping them around a stick they do not stay as badly crumpled up at all. That said, they are worlds easier opening up for me now.
