    Muddy Pro stick rope mod

    If you're interested in the same rope muddy uses for their stick but longer, their Safe-Line rope is the same thing but in 30 foot length that you can then cut down to the length you prefer https://shop.gomuddy.com/the-safe-line/ I'd say it doesn't hurt to reconfirm the specs with their...

    Got sticks

    The main driver for me going from multiple sticks to one stick was packability. I was comparing my buddy's climber setup to me with 4 sticks and I said to myself "there's no way I chose a saddle only to be encumbered by the bulk and burden of 4 stacked sticks. Otherwise i should've just gotten...

    Got sticks

    Agree with boyne bowhunter and Squirrels. In terms of effort, I'm considering more than just taking the trip up the tree. It takes additional time and effort to get multiple sticks situated from being tied together to then hooking them onto your harness. With one stick I take it off my backpack...

    Doyle's hoist failure, need alternative

    I had the flat nylon strap style. I really liked it a lot and have commented positively about it here on the forum but after having the strap snap on me it in a hunting situation, it definitely made me lose confidence in it. I know a lot of folks here use something different than a Doyle's...

    Doyle's hoist failure, need alternative

    I'm not crazy about the weight pulling on my saddle I'm a newbie so I went with Doyles's hoist to shorten the learning curve as much as possible. But after using it and having it fail, looking to lighten the load and use something else that is less of a burden and won't fail

    Doyle's hoist failure, need alternative

    The actual strap itself severed. Like literally just snapped under tension. I know what you mean about the stitching at the end of the strap, i took that out and tied a knot like you're saying. Ultimately though it was the strap that failed and snapped

    Doyle's hoist failure, need alternative

    @enkriss thanks for those suggestions! @Bwhana it snapped right at the opening of the hoist where the strap comes out. So it was definitely due to tension placed on the strap but I didn't feel like it was under so much pressure that it should have snapped. It just really sucked because this was...

    Doyle's hoist failure, need alternative

    So I went hunting on Wednesday and just as I'm about to get on my platform the nylon strap on my Doyle's gear hoist snapped. It looked like it got caught up on a leaning tree branch or something but nonetheless I didn't expect it to snap. It screwed everything up and I had to one stick down the...

    Gear Hoist / Lift Attachment

    I'm using the Doyle's gear hoist, flat nylon strap version and I think it's a great option. There is stitching on the gear hoist attachment that you can remove and tie a knot instead to ensure it doesn't come apart and I'm including a screenshot below for reference...
