    Bow and sticks strapped to pack

    If you strap both your bow and sticks to your pack, I’d love to see a photo and details about which pack you use and the attachment method. Thank you!

    Carrying tether, lineman’s belt, and rappel rope.

    Interested in ideas for carrying your ropes when walking in and out. Prefer things not banging around hanging off of saddle. Thinking about daisy chain tether and lineman’s belt on saddle but storing rappel rope in backpack. Would love to hear other ideas if anyone has this dialed. Thanks!

    One sticking without Madrock

    I hunt from rappel rope. But I am open to getting separate tether to ascent and hunt from.

    One sticking without Madrock

    I’m not confident I have a good grasp on transitioning from hunting to rappelling down. I use a swasbitch on my tether and have a grivel master mono belay to descend. Can someone explain or point me to a good resource about how to transition safely? And how to use a backup? Thank you in advance...

    Big trees

    Any tips on climbing big trees where you can’t get your arms around? I’m focused on one-sticking. Thank you for any advice.

    ATC options

    What is a good atc option for new one-sticker? Do I need one with assisted brake? One that I see often in videos is a black diamond but its specs are 8.1mm rope and above and I have 8mm. Appreciate any recommendations. Thanks!

    Friction hitch

    Thank you. Can you get those with sewn eyes? Or a loop? If not, what knot do I put on the ends? Thanks for all your help.

    Friction hitch

    It’ll be my primary on my tether. I’ll also use it as backup when I rappel using an atc.

    Friction hitch

    Thank you. I planned to experiment. Will prob start with distel or schwabisch, but open to recommendations.

    I would appreciate product recommendations for a friction hitch on resc tech rope (8mm). Specifically what product and where to purchase. Thank you.

    Drop stick while one sticking

    If you’re one sticking, what do you do if you drop your stick? I’m assuming you’d hook up your pull rope and then rappel down?

    Another one-sticking safety thread (sigh)

    Rookie question: if you’re using your lineman’s belt when one sticking, how can it be more dangerous then using multiple sticks? It seems that linesman’s belt + tether > just lineman’s belt. If there’s a reasonable method for getting in a tree that’s much safer, I’m going to rethink things.

    Friction knot for 8mm

    What is best rope and diameter to use for your friction knot with an 8mm tether? Using Teufelberger Resc Tech 8mm. Also, what friction knot is recommended instead of prusik? Thank you!
