How does everyone deal with their spurs after they climb while they are hanging? Platform seems to be the easiest way!! Please tell me I am wrong cause I love my spurs but I also love my ROS or bolts!

?Best way to remove spurs after the climb?

I haven't tried a ROS with spurs, but with a platform it's easy. Just kick the spike in where you can reach your foot and take them off.
Though he’s a recent convert to a platform @huck72412 has killed a pile of deer from a ring of steps after using spurs to climb.
Something about being at eye level, right?
Apparently you have to just kick the spur into the tree at about eye level so you can see to take them off. I think the biggest thing is to go ahead and climb above your ros and get tethered in. Then your free to kick,spin,flip, and flail about until you figure it out.
Just lift your knee up to comfortable height, plunge spur into the tree slowly and controlled, then remove spur.

I use one WE step to give me a little more surface and balance. I have 2 ameristeps on each side to round out my ROS.
I think it might be my Bullman steps that make it harder! What kind of ROS are y'all using with the spurs?
