Rappel rope questions

Wasn't implying you should? In fact I was stating you shouldn't.
I was talking about the F4 which you returned because it said one time use. I was pointing out that they are use more than once. They are not one time use and throw them away. I don't think any Frie department would buy them. I e-mailed NY saddlehunter and I think it was Scott who wrote back to me and basically said if the device was shock loaded then he wouldn't use it. That's all I meant.

A combination of reflective tacks, scent dispensers, flagging tape, and (very judiciously) trimming back shooting lanes, should help you re-locate your trees. Before I got into saddles I made a lot of brush blinds; when I come back to a property I've hunted in the past it's not uncommon for me to say, "huh, this looks like a good spot to set up a... wow, looks like I already did!"

How blatent I go depends on how many other hunters I see on that property. I've never lost a tree, and I want to make sure I don't leave any litter out after the season ends.
This ^^^^ I just use tacks, but I’m a tree tacking fool! If I’m on my game, I’ll remember to mark them on my HuntStand app too! I try to mark all kinds of stuff of notice. Especially trees to climb and where to enter etc…..
