ROPE MODS for Lone Wolf sticks, HOW TO MAKE THEM AND USE THEM!

[@doncook3584]

Just bought first set of sticks got to lose the buckle. Thanks for clear easy to understand information. I’m also learning I could have bought a single stick except I have to first make sure I can do the maneuvers. Guys on KZbin make it look easy but I’m 70 not 30.

[@stevenhicks815]

ThAnk you for showing I am wanting to do this with lone wolf sticks

[@daniellantrip8702]

Alpha tech! Keep up the good work guys

[@stevenmcdonald6789]

Alpha tech! Great videos guys, keep it up!

[@williamlee704]

Alpha tech. Looks like I'll be picking up some 8mm static line. Thanks!

[@donovanstockton44]

Good video I'll tell you what. Thank you a bunch! I will have to use the rope method for sure and what not.

[@caseyscreatons7977]

New to this style of climbing so going to try this out. Thanks

[@dw3164]

Tried this on my API versa buttons. Even worked with parachord though I obviously dont recommend that. I think as long as it bites on that rope it dosent matter what diameter it is. Great video bud! Helped a lot

[@aubpen]

Did you use 8mm? I have the same sticks

[@rustyjackson3562]

Alpha Tech! Nice stuff guys

[@LongtineBowhunting]

alpha tech! Great video on the rope mods. Thanks

[@seabass22]

Get a torch. What I just did. Melted the ends in two seconds. Also, tie a figure 8 knot.

[@tylermundy2894]

Alpha Tech, thanks guys!

[@jakedaugherty]

Alpha tech. Been using ropes along with my climber for hanging gear in the tree, keeps me from screwing stuff into trees

[@parkhilladam]

Alpha tech. Thanks!

[@dionysis84]

Great video. I hate my xop straps and plan on doing this

[@beltcreek]

Nice Job - best delivery and clear speaking I've come across. Articulate young man.

[@JBIRD270]

Outstanding

[@jmcg1363]

On a recent podcast you mentioned that you are using wildedge steps with an aider. Can you do video on that?

[@thesouthernoutdoorsmen]

Absolutely! Were going to try to knock that out this weekend!

[@lymanclark5537]

Good info but I would use trees that dont have poision ivy vines on them.

[@bluegill2030]

Do you get any slippage down the tree from using rope vs straps?

[@thesouthernoutdoorsmen]

generally the stick will set down an inch or two as you put weight on it, similar to how it is with a cam straps. Maybe slightly more than with cam straps though.

[@Horner181]

Do y’all still use the rope mods?

[@john907]

Palm trees and cypress trees have slicker bark and the decreased surface area contact involved with switching from a strap to a rope style MAY be a safety consideration for Florida Hunters . I have not personally tried a rope mod on these trees but would love to hear the opinion of those who have .

[@thesouthernoutdoorsmen]

Interesting point. While we don't have any of those trees in my neck of the woods we do have some other stuff that's similar in bark composition.... in my experience the stick normally will seat down farther than normal (maybe 2-3 inches). Its been safe for me but the big issue is that sometimes the bark of the tree will like squeak or make some other unwanted noise when putting weight on the stick.

[@john907]

Thanks for the input; that gives me a little more confidence. If I try it out I’ll send a confirming comment response

[@USMC-vp4rr]

Do you use the rope mod for the stand as well ?

[@thesouthernoutdoorsmen]

we don't, and would not recommend it. The downfall of this method is that we have not found out a way to get it as tight as a buckle. With any method you'll have the stick have to "seat" down when you put weight on it, and it always sits down more with rope mods. because of that I don't think these would work too well with a stand.

[@derrickbebout4814]

You should go under the button instead of over. It will cause the rope to lock tighter and more secure.

[@thesouthernoutdoorsmen]

We did go under the versa button!
