I've scoured the web and forums trying to find the definitive answer (knowing to some degree it is personal preference) and noting I've not yet tried one sticking but want to do so. What do folks prefer for attachment (hawk or otherwise) for one sticking?
Amsteel daisy chain? Cam cleat/climbing rope? Webbing daisy chain (which these already have)? Rope mod (wrap and half hitch)? "old school" webbing and buckle?
I think my greatest gap in understanding is undoing the connection, retrieving the stick, and moving it up. I get the mechanics of it, but would value some feedback from vets on this. I'm most concerned about (in this order) solid connection the tree (no kickouts), ease of retrieval and simplicity of use. I'm not terribly concerned about weight, noise (I'm slow as molasses in January, so can be quiet and safe).
Thanks!
