What has everyone come up with to get their weapon up to their hunting position? I’d like to come up with a better way to manage rope than a simple paracord and D loop... Ideas?!!!

Getting your gear up the tree

Hey guys, this is my first post here. I’m new to saddle hunting this year. I’m anxiously waiting for my Mantis but @nlrwrangler has been kind enough to loan me his kestrel to practice with and set trees (or should I say his sons’ kestrel). My question is this: How do you prefer to get your...

300lb fishing braid on a small spool. It's slick so its easy to pull out the occasional knot. I put it in a cargo pocket after I hook my bow and it auto spools out as I climb. Let your bow down at the end and just drop the spool to the ground before you climb down.

Below is a link to the poll I did on this topic earlier. As on now, has 131 total votes on this very subject.

Adding it here as there are lots of ideas that might answer some questions on this topic Although I don't remember the specific one above being mentioned.

Let's vote (how do you pull your bow up)...

Okay ...polling options above if you're on the forum and Survey Monkey link if you're on tapatalk. Let's give this a shot now. If you are on the forum, you can vote in the poll above If you are on tapatalk, you can follow the link to survey monkey (I think)...

I have a summit retractable with rubber ties on the business end but don`t use it anymore. I love this simple effective way to do this as shown in this video. Kudo`s to hunt urban.

I use 3/4” mule tape. It’s the best pull rope I’ve found
