Anyone have concerns or experience using either of these as rope mods in a cam cleat for one sticking? I know many guys use Amsteel.
I was supposed to post a pic but forgot. I had about 60 hunts on my oplux bridge and tether and they definitely didn’t pass the traditional dynamic rope pinch test. I cut it apart and took the core out and honestly everything still looked totally intact. Core looked solid. It was just that the pressure on the knotted areas had totally flattened the rope in those places. This didn’t really happen with my lineman I’m thinking cuz they never bears much weight. I’ve since just decided to replace my bridge, tether and lineman’s with research tech. Likely will just replace these ropes mostly every season since I hunt so much and the ropes are relatively cheap compared to hospital bills.
I replace my tether, linesman and bridge every year to ease my mind. It sure does add up though!
Just dropped 100 to do the same. I more dislike retying the adjustable bridge. I'm too perfectionistic with it and it takes a while.
