first an introduction...Hi! I'm a noob. I've been treestand hunting for at least 3 decades, but got into rock climbing this summer, and started poking around the interwebs on using a RC harness for hunting rather than my trusty SOTP harness.
I found some vids of folks using an RC harness as a safety harness, but then I found a bunch of stuff about tree saddles...and thats when I found you lovely folks!
so...I have an RC harness and a bunch of 25kn locking biners and 11 mm rope already, I ordered a SitDrag the other day and some milspec 1" tubular webbing...and can't wait to get started!!
as I've been poking around looking at everyones setups and wondered why everyone is using Prusik rather than a klemheist? I switched to klemheist knots many years ago...they are unidirectional, so they are much easier to move with one hand. and after loading and unloading, can be released with a simple flip of the thumb.
so...has anyone tried a klemheist?
