I was looking at my rappel rope (pic1) where I am using a PROPER scaffold knot to connect to a Petzl triangle for the girth hitch and had an idea. I have not seen anyone mention this before, or at least could not find it in a search, but why could you not use this knot on the tether instead of a figure 8 (not using the triangle, just rope). To use, just make the noose bigger and pass your tag end and attachment through as you would with the figure 8, then, when you sinch it down, the girth hitch will stay tight and in place better on the tree (pic2). It can still be loosened fairly easily to remove it when done hunting. I have only tested this on ground level for the first time today, but I see no issues so far. The knot is much cleaner and smaller than a figure 8. Anyone with better rope/climbing knowledge see any risks with this option? I only know what I know and looking for more experienced climbers to chime in and shut it down if it is not safe.
