    Quick Link Options?

    Hello All. I am aware of the general principal of cross loading a carabiner and the dangers involved. There is a lengthy and informational thread about it here on this forum. I have also watched vids from the How Not 2 guys where they pull a cross loaded carabiner across a corner edge, and...

    PassThrough/Kangaroo Pockets in a Saddle

    I was wondering if coats/jackets/anoraks/hoodies like the sitka fanatic, nomad cottonwood, and kings wind defender xkg allow for their kangaroo/passthrough pockets in the front to be used while in the saddle. Do the bridge loops/bridge get in the way of using this pocket in place of a...

    Anyone have any opinion, or even better, pics, of the 2 color choices in action? Struggling to make a choice. I feel like either color could stick out, being a solid color. If anyone has any thoughts, I'm open to hearing them!

    Has anyone tried to rappel of both of these ropes? Any difference? Pros? Cons? I'm considering switching to one of these two, and I know they are very similar, but was looking for some real world experience with them. Thanks! (I'm using a safeguard)

    Single stick platform stability

    Quick question for all of you one-stickers that use a platform on top of your stick (scout, artisan, etc). How stable is that platform for side pressure and moving around the tree? If I would have used my regular climbing stick (cam buckle) I would have quickly kicked the stick out from the...

    Carrying Wild Edge Steps

    OK, I love wild edge steps. I carry 4 with me every hunt. They go on the tree quickly, quietly, and they make a good home base for my ring of steps. However, I am looking for a better way to carry them with me. I don't like the bag they come in, nor do I need it for climbing. Molle J Hooks...

    Cruzr Sizing help

    With the popularity of the Cruzr growing, and more Cruzr's in the hands of folks on this forum, I thought I would link to another thread that was started here that could be helpful to anyone considering a new saddle. This thread is a great idea, but didn't gain the traction it should have. I...

    7/64 Amsteel Safe for Aider?

    Ok amsteel experts: Is 7/64 amsteel strong/safe enough to make an aider out of? I know people use it for climbing sticks, so would it be strong and durable enough to use as an aider step to hold all of my body weight? I would be using it as an aider on Wild Edge steps. Is anyone experienced...

    sys hauler on flex molle loops?

    does it work? the flex molle loops are a little looser than standard molle, so will the sys hauler attachement method work? I saw that DanO sells some pouches with the same style of connection. I would be worried that they could work their way loose, but i figured i would ask and see if...

    Horn Hunter G3

    Has anyone had any experience with this pack? it is in the running for me to purchase. I'd like to carry my bow and climbing system on my back, so i can walk hands free. meat hauling capability is not a priority. How about any experience with the horn hunter brand in general? I hang my...

    Bib hunt

    I'm on a hunt for some bibs. mid to heavy weight preferred, but not too heavy that they can't be worn to walk. being able to zipper for venting is a plus. lastly, they must be windproof. waterproof is not a must, but windproof is. anyone have any suggestions on some bibs?

    Harrisburg outdoor show

    are any of the climbing method/saddle manufacturers/danO planning on going to the great american outdoor show? if there is enough a saddle presence there, i'd make the trip. it is the largest outdoor show east of the mississippi (at least last i checked). I believe wild edge is usually there.

    I have a mantis. i've hunted out of it every single day this season. i enjoy it. however, i've taken to sitting more lately. i used to mostly lean. now the mantis isn't as comfortable as it used to be. it was great for leaning, but i'm having trouble with it riding up the hips, and the...

    sticks, platform, bow, hands free?

    Does anyone have a setup with a pack or system to carry a bow, climbing sticks, and platform/ring of steps all on your back? walking in hands free is a lot more comfortable, especially on longer walks. I see many threads and discussions about carrying sticks/platform on the same pack, but what...

    Beal jammy damaged?

    Is this normal? This jammy is about a month old, got it from danO. I noticed the bare spot while hunting tonight. I just pulled it out to look at it after i got home. Is this something that i should be concerned about? It does make me nervous. It appeared right where it bends around...
