    Whats up with the 'Sladder Climbing system"?

    I wasn't sure which "Sladder" thread to ask this question, so I included it in both. I am currently 2TC climbing, but using a 3-step aider on my foot tether instead of a foot loop. I tried the foot loop but didn't like it as well. I have the Sladder System but haven't had a chance to try it but...

    Hickory Creek Koolaid

    Is it difficult to put the string on?

    Hickory Creek Koolaid

    Thanks for the help and the video. I called Jerry and he said the tails are to keep it from pinching inward, as someone mentioned above. I did some shooting with it and the D-loop has stayed in place so far. It is shooting great... So far! Hopefully, it stays until the season is over. I don't...

    Hickory Creek Koolaid

    Those of you using the Hickory Creek Mini, will a regularly tied D-loop (like on a compound) work? Or does it have to have the trails with the wrap? Those of you who may have had to replace your string, who did you get to tie on your D-loop? Thanks for any help!

    It's just...a little crush... - Review of the JX3 Hybrid Saddle

    Bratch, After looking at your picture again, it seems like the pouches would be more forward than I originally visualized where they would be when sitting; more on your front in your lap; and easier to access. Anyway, I would still love some feedback on how it works for you when in hunting...

    It's just...a little crush... - Review of the JX3 Hybrid Saddle

    I like the idea of the battle belt over the belt of the JX3, but my question is, do the pouches on the side get in the way when you are sitting in the hunting position? Since the belt is inside the straps when you are tethered in, it seems like they would push against the straps, and/or be...

    Versa-strap/daisy chain on V-Steps

    For question 1,I had some WE Stepps and did what you're talking about using the Tethrd VersaLinks. I was a lot more successful getting the steps to tighten using the those than using the ropes that came with the WE Stepps. No issues. I've switched to sticks since then.

    It's just...a little crush... - Review of the JX3 Hybrid Saddle

    Was my thoughts on how to do it even close to your technique? Would it be possible to describe your technique? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

    It's just...a little crush... - Review of the JX3 Hybrid Saddle

    Has anyone attempted the 2 tether climbing method with the JX3? I was thinking I could sit into the tether with the fork against the tree, with the foot tether above the fork so it can be moved up the tree. Put your foot into the foot loop, stand up, move the tether up, then sit down again...

    Thanks. I pulled the trigger and bought the JX3. I will just have to try one sticking with it when it comes.

    It's just...a little crush... - Review of the JX3 Hybrid Saddle

    Would you be able to to give a brief description of your climbing process? I'm wondering, do you sit down with the fork into the tree to make a move? I'm envisioning it being smaller moves than in a saddle. Can you reach down as far to grab your stick? Thanks in advance!

    It's just...a little crush... - Review of the JX3 Hybrid Saddle

    I know it may be discussed already in the previous 58 pages, so please bare with me, as I don't want to scroll through all of that to answer my question. I am thinking of getting a JX3... AGAIN! I had one 2 years ago, but just didn't like having to carry my crossbow in my hands. I now have a a...

    7 bolts to 21 feet high

    I do have my carabiners wrapped, so there is very little chance of making noise. They are very easy on and off of the bolts or steps as well.

    7 bolts to 21 feet high

    I've tried this method and used a 2 carabiners in the loops to hook over the bolt/strap on step. One at the height to make the step up and the other to stand with feet even to put up next strap on step.
