    One Sticking with Beast Stick/Daisy Chain?

    I tried one sticking with a beast stick and a daisy chain. It can be done but it can be a pain. Daisy chain can be unforgiving when trying to free the stick for your next move up. It can also loosen up and fall down the tree if not careful. There are definitely far easier ways. As most will...

    Shikar, LWCG, or Beast Sticks?

    Fine......I use the double steps with a 2 step BWM aider and I love the setup. I have had beast sticks, shikars, LWCG minis, and LWCG doubles. I kept the doubles. The beast sticks are nice. The shikars had too much wobble IMO. The minis were nice but I like a double step. The double steps...

    Auto block with safeguard

    When backing up the safeguard at height, How are you doing this? I use an auto block with an ATC sometimes when rappelling. Do you back up your Safeguard the same way while stationary and hunting? Or do you put something above the safeguard. I love using my safeguard as both tether and...

    Carabiner or quick link for tether attachment??

    Hmmm. That’s interesting. I’ve never saw one of those before. I’d like to hear more opinions on that. That is very intriguing. It’s definitely lighter. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Carabiner or quick link for tether attachment??

    Doesn’t that completely nullify the advantage of a link by making you pass the entire rope through every time you want to go around a branch? And if you’re going to do that why not just use a figure 8 knot. Why add another piece of rope to the equation. Unless I’m missing something which with my...

    Elite Hunter shooting bare shaft bullet holes with center shot at over an inch!?!?

    I had an E32 with the same scenario. I was decent but for years I could never get it perfect. I could never get a bullet or get fixed heads to fly with FPs. I shimmed the cams and like magic is was perfect.

    CAM LEAN. Unfortunately it sound like a shim job is needed.

    Carabiner or quick link for tether attachment??

    Do you tie the scaffold knot on the wide end of the triangle or in the point of it?

    Carabiner or quick link for tether attachment??

    What exactly is the danger of the carabiner? Is it that the aluminum carabiner could get pressed against the tree and bend or break? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Carabiner or quick link for tether attachment??

    I always thought climbing rated carabiners were a no go for the tether. I was under the impression that dangerous cross loading was a possibility and a steel quick link was a must. I just watched a one stick video by a fellow named Carl where he uses a carabiner with a scaffolding hitch. Any...

    Cam buckle LWCG gray straps

    I have not. I even use one for my predator platform as it fits the button more snug than the tethrd strap.

    amsteel CRUZR adjustable bridge, not very adjustable?

    I'd rather my bridge adjustment be a little tougher as opposed to a chance of slipping under load. As the others said, take the load off and twist the prussic. It will move.
