ya should always carve the L7 notch first if ya screw up the L7 toss for a new stick carv the point last as it is not so finicky and hard to mess up their by saving effort
You made the mistake most people make with this trap. It's not high enough off the ground. When an animal is snared and hanging its body length will stretch downward. If it can still touch the ground it will be able to support its weight and have a much better chance at chewing loose and escaping. Also, the weight of the animal will pull the snare stick down further, making the problem that much worse. I never see people getting this right in their videos or even acknowledging that aspect. But it's something you will learn quickly to correct if you ever have to set these traps for real.
+Prepared Survivalist It is plenty high. I use this system(in fact its set now) and I does lift the animal off the ground. it might look low on film but its about three feet off the ground.

Also tension is lost overnight on saplings and green limbs.
