    Dangers of a Ropeman 1

    BEST ADVICE!!!! Back any ascended with a prusik. once you're at height this set up allows for a six or seven inch adjustment in length without looking. A Kong Duck is a bit bulkier that the Ropeman. and might be a bit more idiot proof. i have both cause sometimes i feel like a nut and sometimes...

    Hip pinch

    i found that FOOT position has a lot to do with that hip pinch. I suffered with pinch from my trophy line pro until I got a platform that allowed my feet to be further from the tree.. which merely changed the geometry. As an added bonus it also relieved the pressure the saddle put on my SCIATIC...

    Hawk Helium rope mod

    I prefer the rope mod with no stretch dyneema over the straps that do stretch. staps absorb moisture too... moisture equals mal-odors

    Single pin sight

    I switched from multi pins to a single too just to eliminate that messy sight picture. Set it at 30 and you're good to got on most any ethical shot on a deer. IF by chance you're compelled to shoot at something ( yote, opposum, fox, whatever} beyond 35 or 40, the animal should be far out...

    Is this when a ropeman would come in handy?

    A Kong Duck works just as well as the Ropeman 1. as mentioned above i run it together with the prusik. I did though take out one twist in the prusik to make it slide routinely better AND as an added bonus when running both it allows me to make an 8 inch or so adjustment to my tether without...
