    Same. One setup on my prop requires 5 sticks to get to 23' because of a few twists and forks in the tree

    When I use this type of set-up I've tried to use 3 LW sticks but I have short legs so if I try to space them out too far it is extra work and I get sweaty which isn't good when it is cold. For this reason I go with 4 and try to use a limb or two to get where I'm going.

    I use 4 sticks. I have some semi-permanent sets on public ground that I leave the top two sticks in the tree and carry in two of my Lone Wolf sticks each time.

    The majority if the time I use 4. If I'm going in blind, I'll bring 5.

    I've used as few as one stick and as many at 7 though :tu:

    depends on the height of the first row of cover. sometimes 1 and sometimes 4 just depends where I have the best concealment.
