How to make an Amsteel Bridge

[g2outdoors]

Saddle Nation - this took a lot of effort, and it didn't turn out as good as I would have liked. However, I think you'll be able to splice after watching. Enjoy.

Here's all the crap I bought over the years to splice.

I expect he got attacked by a gator, a poisonous snake and a wild pig. A bat would be hard to believe unless it was on video.
I really do appreciate how much you contribute to this site including this video. I am going to splcie a whoopie sling bridge because I like to adjust my bridge. I presently use a prussic on some predator rope. A whoopie made from 6 mm amsteel will be sooo light.

I just eyeballed it. Theoretically you'd put some measurements into how small/large the trees are you typically hunt and then go from there, but I wasn't smart enough to do that. I'd guess you'd want to start your bury at least 24" from your locked brummel. That way you could get nice and tight on a small tree.

@g2outdoors thanks so much for that video!! Great job, I can handle that (do I get royalties for my amsteel fixed bridge making an appearance?) seriously that’s cool though. I think I can play around with those options, really easy to follow.
