Last year was my first using the JX-3. After a year using it, I thought I'd give a write up of my "system". There are a million ways to use this thing, but I thought this might be helpful for new guys using the hybrid that don't know where to start. I'm not claiming anything here is the best way...it's just what I settled on after about 50 hunts.
I hunt with a xbow and a gun. I either use pre-set trees (with bolts to climb and bolts as a ROS) or run and gun where I climb with beast sticks and use a ROS (squirrel steps on an OCB). Contrary to some claims, I feel you really need at lest a few steps or bolts as a ROS with the hybrid to move around the tree easily.
I love this thing and used it in nearly every hunt (even from the ground a few times). Also, I killed 5 whitetail last year (2 bucks / 3 does). Here goes: A pic is worth a thousand words, so hopefully this makes sense:
