Hoisting weapon?

If I SRT I tie my backpack to my climbing rope and have about 40 ft of paracord tied to my saddle and my bow. If I 2TC I wear my backpack and use the paracord for my bow.
When I SRT, I tie my climbing line to my bag and my pull down rope to my bow. If I'm climbing a preset, my preset line becomes my pull down rope and I just tie that to my bow to pull it up.
 
I clip my bow to my fanny pack behind me.in some trees when climbing branches I hang my bow above me by the bowhook climbup grab it hang it above me again and repeat.not the safest but I get it done
 
I use a retractable dog leash to pull up. The dog leash goes on the rappel rope for pull down and I lower my rifle/bow with the end of the rappel rope.

Before I switched to the recurve I had a Primos sling for my bow and I used it to carry the bow up/down the tree.
 
Cant beat the Doyles gear hoist IMO.
Just dont let the end snap back to the housing after you undo your bow, xbow, or gun. You will let everything know u are there.
