    2 panel comfort?

    That is my problem, the 2 panels basically fall into the position and there is no way to keep them close together without buying an extra strap to keep them together. as soon as I put weight in them one goes on my thigh and the other basically acts as a back strap. I'll try and rig up a couple...

    2 panel comfort?

    I bought a name brand 2-panel prior to season and have been hunting out of it all year. My problem has been comfort. The 2 panels do not distribute the weight very well and the bottom panel cuts of the circulation in my thighs. I've played around with tether height, position, and bridge length...

    Help with saddle comfort

    Last night was my first sit in my Phantom. definitely a learning curve to get comfy. Today I've done some digging and found my tether was way to high and my bridge was to short. I also found an old strap to use as a back support. My legs where a little rubber at the end of it and my back is a...

    Climbing stick strap storage?

    I just got some long daisy chain straps for my climbing sticks, but now I'm wondering how everyone packs these to the tree? Do you wrap them around the sticks or take off and store in a pouch? Any ideas are appreciated.

    how to install aiders onto helium sticks?

    Eric. I agree but I was stuck at work when I thought of it so I figured I’d ask. You never know what people have figured out before me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    how to install aiders onto helium sticks?

    I just received my EWO aiders for my helium sticks. I am wondering if there is a trick to installing the aiders onto the steps without taking one of the steps off? I can easily loop the one side on but I'm trying to avoid taking of a step if i can. Anybody ever done this or am I just being...

    Rope Mod for Helium Sticks?

    I'm not sure that I need a 10ft long rope, that gets you into a tree 3 foot in diameter. I hope I don't need a tree that big to hide behind. I will stick with the stock straps for now and see if i run into an issue. On a side note I cut the inner lip out of the female suction cup stick retention...

    Rope Mod for Helium Sticks?

    I went buckle-less with my helium sticks for the first time last night, It worked great. I plan on keeping one buckle for the top step but that will be it. Now I just need to order aiders for the sticks so i can get down to 3 instead of 4 sticks and I need to do something else beside the lock...

    Thanks for all of the input. I'll try the buckle-less idea first.

    Rope Mod for Helium Sticks?

    I've been looking at a lot of rope mods for the Hawk Helium sticks. Everyone seems to be putting Lone Wolf Versa Buttons on the sticks in order to do a rope mod. Is the Button that come on the standard Helium to tall to create a pinch or some other issue why I would have to change out the versa...

    Leaning toward trying AIDERS with climbing sticks. What kind? Where to buy? DIY rigging? Carry as you go?

    I agree with qwhalin, just use standard sticks unless you have some time practicing with some other climbing method. I've made rope ladders in the past to act as an aider for climbing and it gets a little hairy the first few times you use them. I'm not discouraging you from looking into these...
