    Paul Crave's daisy chain video: • Daisy Chain from Amsteel
    Versa Lite forum thread: saddlehunter.com/community/in...
    The standard cam buckle straps that come with climbing sticks work totally fine, but there are better options in my opinion for mobile, run-and-gun hunters. I've done videos on the rope mod before, but now there are newer options to discuss as well. In particular, the Versa Lite strap and amsteel daisy chain both offer quicker and easier attachment than a typical rope mod. From a weight perspective, the amsteel daisy chain is the clear winner at less than an ounce, but all methods have some pros and cons that I discuss in the video.

    Great video. Of all the people on CZcams your one of the best at explaining the topic.

    Great comparison video. I too made my own 7/64 a steel daisy chain and love it. I braid them while watching a ball game or something and it goes fairly quick. I personally chose orange as it helps me spot my tree in the dark in the am. I don’t find that it makes any difference to the deer. Thanks again. Have a great season.

    Love those versa lite straps. You should make a new climbing setup video. One where it shows how you setup in the tree with your saddle setup from start to finish.

    Excellent video and timing. My friend and I are buying material and were undecided on buying webbing or Amsteel for a daisy chain. Thanks!

    Great stuff man! Amsteel is what I’m going to try for sure. My 8mm static is kind of bulky

    Awesome mod. Wish i found this out 10 yrs ago. Anything to cut weight and noise on my pack.

    outstanding video. Regarding the daisy chain amsteel, do you find it hard to swing it around a large tree? I've found the buckle on the original straps very handy when swinging straps around exceptionally large diameter trees. thanks for these videos.

    I really like your videos: clear explanations, straight to the point. Thanks a lot. I'm curious as to why you prefer the shorter (20-inch) climbing sticks. I guess it's to get around branches and stuff, and also maybe they are easier to carry. But don't they limit how high you can get, unless you want to carry a lot of them?

    Another well done video, great job. So have you settled on your favorite option. I'm thinking I'm going to the versa lite.

    Any thoughts on G2's NADIR climbing method, or variations thereof ? Worth a video/trial ?

  • @josephtreadlightly5686

    Hey Garrett, I'm planning on using the DRT method but want 2 modify from the Predator strap 2. I'm going 2 make a tool 2 splice with out of old aluminum arrows. Which side shaft would work best on Amsteel, I have alot of shaft diameters 2 choose from?

    Amazing info... now which one attracts the deer???

    Awesome video Garrett! Any future videos on climbing sticks? I know they keep coming out with newer and lighter ones (hunting beast) just curious if you're going to cover this topic?

    Great video as always. Do you know of anyone using the cam cleat system on an actual lock? I’m considering adding cleats to my lone wolf to get rid of the buckles.

    I’m using 7/64 Amsteel this year but instead of daisy chain I’ve made them into Woopie Slings. I have not climbed up into a tree with them yet, but the one I did wrap around the a tree seemed to hold just fine. (I also added 5 beads to give me something to through around the tree) getting down I’d my concerns and relieving the bite.
