Looking for a way to tie in back band

[Dietter700]

I have a neoprene padded shoulder strap that I turned into a backbend / recliner on my mantis.
Right now it has a really cheap plastic buckle that ends up falling on my carabiner. (Noisy and not strong)

I am looking for a good way to tie that into my bridge or hook it to my carabiner. I was thinking maybe a prosthetic on my bridge and two small carabiners. But I don’t want extra weight or noise. I am not very knowledgeable on knots but is there some sort of knot that I could quickly and easily tie my back band into my bridge with?

I will add pics tomorrow possibly, sorry if that doesn’t make sense. I am very green to this saddle hunting thing.

Right after I wrote this I realized that kestrels back band ties into the bridge almost exactly how I was imagining . Maybe I’ll try that

I assume you meant prussik knot and yes that will work. Attach cordage of choice to backstrap by whatever means necessary and form prussiks onto bridge. Nothing crazy strong is necessary. It is for comfort, not protection.

I have a padded sling/strap off an old golf bag waiting to be used for a back band...……. it might be overkill but it wont dig in that's for sure.

I am using a Hawk bow holster sling. I bought the thing years ago and never use it, I saw it the other day and light bulb went off!

Nope. We're all waiting for @Dietter700 to post pictures of this prosthetic connection!

Seriously though... a prusik made out of d-loop material on each side of your bridge is more than sufficient for attaching a back band.

Hahah I indeed meant prussic
