    Latitude Carbon Sticks - Saddle Attachment Method?

    I just bought all Hawk straps, the new ones. I modify tie all my sticks the same way. Wrap around go under wraps around ears or button and done. Never have a stick slip. Like the Hawk Daisy strap better then amsteel or anything else I have used

    Latitude Carbon Sticks - Saddle Attachment Method?

    Check out the "Ears" specifically, just curious if they "feel" rigid or strong or are they a weak point. I like methods that pull the front of the stick into the tree, the sides don't seem like a great point even if you run the amsteel crossed the front of the flat part of the stick

    Latitude Carbon Sticks - Saddle Attachment Method?

    Guys really ought to do some research. Carbon and carbon fibers can actually be fractured with hard blows. So placing a stick and pushing down hard to set it or giving it a little smack once set can have a bad effect. I just read a ton of stuff on the net and carbon can be crazy strong in...
