D.I.Y. How to make a lifeline with a prusik knot | treestand safety |

[@robbymorris651]

Fantastic instructional video! Bro they aren't giving these away. You saved me about 40 bucks. Thank you!

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Glad I could help. Thanks for watching.

[@andrewwinchester9928]

Just by shopping around for the supplies, I was able to make two 25ft lifelines for the price of one. Great video!

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Awesome!!

[@HoosierChickenDaddy]

Thank you so much for this video. I made two while watching your video (over & over lol). Now I can be safer thanks to your help.

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Thanks for watching!!

[@williamrutland8097]

Great video brother. More hunters need to see it.

[@georgebanks90]

Thanks man for a great example and explanation of how to do it and how it works maybe show them hom to defend with that setup

[@juliusjames5577]

Thanks for taking the time make this👍

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Your welcome!! Thanks for watching..

[@shadowballen6463]

damn didnt even know I wanted to know this.... now I need more!! Great video.

[@johnnybstuddd4482]

Great video, I wondered how the lifeline attached to the top of the tree. I think its cheaper to make these than to buy them already made. thanks for the informative video

[@PennsylvaniaSasquatch]

So simple and secure, love it!

[@tomray1257]

Great explanation, thank you.

[@Mike-cc2eu]

Thanks for the video was going to buy a life line now I’ll make one thanks

[@cameroncunningham687]

Nice video. Probably going to watch the linesman’s next.

[@yassirc3681]

Thanks for sharing.

[@Zara_edits12]

Brilliant video. Thank you mate.

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Thank you!!

[@truthhunter5772]

Amazing video my brother. Ty

[@marcosgonzalez6545]

Excellent! Ty

[@monte4150]

Great video!

[@himsk8r12]

I would do a figure 8 on a bite on the ends instead of an overhand. It's more secure and stronger as a safety for holding a person and thats what we use for search and rescue ops. Other than that great video and perfect prusic!

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Good tip I’ll try that when I build my next one.

[@poiryra]

Very nicely done. Thank you.

[@ericschumacher7507]

Thanks buddy!

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Thanks for watching..

[@manampytiana5197]

very detailed video.

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Thank you!!

[@michaelc4650]

Good job thanks

[@lancerudy9934]

Great video😊

[@vernhanna4399]

Is this also used in tree while hunting or just for climbing up and down?

[@B_r_u_c_e]

Thank you.

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Your welcome

[@laferriere6]

Great diy videos, thanks for making them! 2 questions, can't you use the life line as the tether? Would you trust this enough to repel from?

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

The life line attaches to your tether on your safety harness. As far as repelling, the rope is made for rock climbing.

[@danielherring9324]

Thanks for the video. I rarely hunt from a stand 90% is ground hunting. If I do hunt from a stand its a ladder stand thats only 12ft high. But im needing to put a stand 30+ ft.

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Be safe out there!!

[@jamesrobinson9570]

Thank you

[@yorkshire_saddlehunter184]

Could you Do a DIY video on a makeshift throw bag? I've tried a few things like putting lead ammo in a sock and tieing my line to it and wrapping it in duct tape but would like to see if you have any good ideas on this

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

I’ll def try!!

[@brucepk631]

sorry for my lack of understanding but if you were to fall and you are hung up... what then? how do you lower yourself down. sounds like you just hang there if you fall. im sure theres more to it than that... thx!

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

That’s the idea for it to catch and let you hand there. In theory you should be able to hug the tree get the tension off of ridicule knot and then proceed to get on your ladder,sticks, or stand. If your in climber you can shimmy down tree. Hope that answers it for ya.

[@bobhardie6895]

Thanks man👍

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Glad you liked it

[@BackyardBroadheads]

Ty

[@bobhardie6895]

How do you get it down at end of the job. All the best Bob

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

If your using a hang on stand you can hook into your lineman’s belt to get it down. If your using a climber you just cinch and un-cinch moving the line down as you go. When u get to the bottom just unhook from tree. Hope that explains it well enough.

[@lostone260]

Cost efficient

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Very!

[@pauldouglasstudio1765]

Is the prusik rope a different size rope than your lifeline or does it not matter to use the lifeline sized rope for the prusik?

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Yes it’s a different size. You want the prusik knot rope to be smaller.

[@CoreyTippets]

Can the lifeline rope be 1/2 inch and the prussic rope be 8mm or probably not, great vid

[@thoughtfulenlightenment1416]

Thank you for actually answering these questions!! Why do you want the knot line smaller? I made the lineman belt watching your video and I used the same rope 😬​@@JarredMurphyOutdoors

[@marionmcmichen3410]

What is the link to amazon to order ropes you use?

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

It should be in the description.

[@ringerson4x4]

A figure eight not is better than the overhand not.

[@brandonyoung7760]

Can you just stay hooked to this while you're hunting instead of having to attach to a tree strap once you're in the tree

[@robm6515]

Yes you can!

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

Yes

[@rustyshackelford9414]

If i fell with one of these ropes could I slide the rest of the way down in a controlled fashion?

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

If you were to fall the prusik would grip the main line and keep you from falling. As long as you can get pressure off of the prusik knot you will be able to slid it down.

[@rustyshackelford9414]

@@JarredMurphyOutdoors I appreciate the answer. Probably a simpleton question but this safety rope is new to me. Sounds like I've been missing out.

[@JarredMurphyOutdoors]

They are handy for lock on or ladder stands that stay in one place for most of the season.
