2 tether climbing

Orange is a great color, just not when I'm trying to blend in.

One of the great benefits of 2TC is that your "climbing method" (foot loop) can easily be stowed in your pocket after ascending. Nothing out there to swing in the breeze.
 
Maybe if it had tiger stripes it would blend right in, LOL. Your right RB after you've made your climb it would be out of sight. I hunt small woodlots in farm country, where most of the time, the deer I'm hunting are not very far away. I wouldn't take the chance on the movement of an orange sling going up a tree giving me away. I'm sure there's a better option out there. My first thought on a DIY would be to use a 1" strap for the sling with two additional straps sewn on either side to the main strap to give your foot a wider place to sit. I've got about 4" between the ball of my foot and my heel so if they were spaced about that far apart it should be comfortable to stand on.
 
Deer will see anything swinging in the breeze. Orange independent.


I totally understand not wanting a loud color. However, orange is one of the friendliest colors I know of for deer. They simply rarely even pay attention. Especially if the sun is shining or in the snow.
