Yup. I think I have either 30 or 40 feet of Canyon Elite, and run a madrock. Makes it super easy to get down.

Its also a pretty badass feeling. I felt so cool the first time I did it practicing. All my childhood superspy or military dreams came flooding back
Had the James Bond theme song playing in my head.Another note, its safer in the event you need to get out of the tree ASAP. I had a storm roll in on me pretty quick one time. Was out the tree and packing up before the bottom fell out.

I'm planning on upgrading my rope to something of the sort for next season. What diameter you running?
Dont know about bada$$, but im to old and clumsy to be trying get down sticks in the dark, much easier to rappel for this old fat manIts also a pretty badass feeling. I felt so cool the first time I did it practicing. All my childhood superspy or military dreams came flooding back

The Cruzr Headquarters is in Cookeville. I've heard you can go there and test out some of their stuff. I'm hoping to go in the next week or so to try some out.
I run 50 ft of 9mm sterling civ with a madrock

50 ft how high do you like to get?!?
I use it for my tether and pull up rope , generally just go 20-25 ft but have been 30-35 according to situation. As lite as the rooe is i would rather have 10 ft to much than 10 ft to short50 ft how high do you like to get?!?

I've no interest in saddle hunting but the one sticking and rappelling really interests me. I'd like to try applying it to hang-on hunting. Worst part about my stand and sticks is all the sticks. Cumbersome and heavy.
That's exactly my train of thought. I want to get away from having 4 sticks. The one stick and rappel method really has my interest.
Man i love it, it takes less effirt to use the one stick method than carrying sticks and platform and putting them up, and the madrock safeguard makes it a cinch to get down! Staggs in the wild on youtube is a wealth of onestick knowledge if you get time to looke em up
Thank you for the tip. I'll check the channel out for sure. I've mostly decided to give it a try.
