Anyone get a set of 20” early and could give feedback .
‘Looking to see packability to .5 and how they set using Amsteel.
 
I just posted about this as well ! Hope we can get some info I need to get these ordered asap!
 
I know you’re asking about the 20’s but for a packability reference, here is a pic of the 17’s on my .5

I had the 17 inch originals. I sold them. The rope mod was the way to go with the stick. Stack ability put the stick at the top of the list. There is no better double stick for packing and transport. There quite and no fiddle factor which I loved.

The bad is the attachment point was too high for the 17’s and I got kick out on the stick several times. Two of the times I was in the stand before I noticed it. I looked down and the bottom of the stick would be over 12 inches off the tree. It’s not a good feeling 20 ft off the ground and you have to step on a stick that your hope goes back in place against the tree.

That being said they came out with some 14 inch sticks an I want to play with them. But I don’t know when they will be available.
 
Got em. Love em. Amsteel worked great using the rope mod videos out there. They overhand off my .5 and look identical to the 17s on the .5 pic above on my brand new 1.0

So the edges are not chamfered- that said- they are not sharp at all (and I’ve owned sharp edged lwcgs). My brand new .5 had pointier edges that if you wanted to damage something and tried it might be feasible- these would be a long shot.

Figured the pics would help more on the other stuff. Some changes from my older 1.0 (sold or I’d show) that I do not know the feature behind … but lots of bow holder locations, support webs for the doubles and additional Tether Tees.
