I can't find info on this anywhere. There is a plastic sleeve over coiled up strap on the tether to my new XOP harness that came with the hang on stand. It has a sticker that says "Do Not Remove" but I see no reference to it in a manual, video, etc. QUESTION - is it supposed to stay on?? Is it ok to take off? I have trouble fitting the wad of strap through my Sitka jacket with the harness tether slot. And it seems to just hang behind my head and annoy me. Thanks in advance for any wisdom..
