    I have a similar approach. Got some trees prepped, got some trees located in areas based on conditions, etc. Might be using fixed lock ons a lil more this season in certain areas where needed

    I thought I'd never do it but since it's so similar to climbing poles I finally broke down and bought a saddle set-up. I'll use it primarily in managed hunts if we get drawn or if I'm mobile hunting a new property.

    Last year I went to tethered daisy chain ropes. Did NOT like them in the traditional daisy chain use. Began to use them as a normal rope mod and use the "chain" to sinch down tight and then tie off. Worked great and was pretty quick to do

    Best thing about it is it helps me switch up the pressure on my legs and back. Allows my body to stretch and not hurt as much. Haha

    Im using home made daisy chains out of amsteel. I do the trucker hitch method. I can get it tighter this way then with stock cam straps. So easy once you practice

    He’s told me a couple of stories about a guy who missed a couple of deer in a spot where he killed a buck.

    You wouldn’t know anything about that would you?

    Yeah, well, I don’t know him personally but if he’s a buddy of Adam then he must be a pretty decent person.
