I just got mine in and it has 3 pre tapped holes and two of them line up perfect with this harken cam cleat. But I think maybe the threads are different. Just wondering if ooal is making them with the right holes and threads
Cool thanks I’m gonna take it to work and try to double check those threads before I force it in. I’m hoping the paint is what’s making it feel tight but I don’t want to take a chance. I’ll post it back on here when it’s confirmed, might help someone else who’s ordering one. Thanks again
just ordered my Shikar today but i ordered the 2 step. how does it work putting the versa button on the back versus just having the rope on the main post?
Sweet… so when I made the rope mod I made it to where I had to unscrew the versa button and then screw it over top of the rope mod so that it would not pull off. Depending on your rope mod you might have to go around the main portion of the stick rather than the versa button itself. Does that make sense? And I essentially just reversed a versa button in the same hold it was already drilled.
What required hardware did you have to buy to mount the cam cleat (size bolts, washers, nuts if it didn’t come with Schaefer cam cleat). Additionally, do you have the link to where to purchase the 1/8” amsteel rope to make the mod? Great video!
Everyone is a troll- me I’d cut down the bolts for the cleat and round the ends over, I’d also use some thread set on the versa button screw- might be why the head boogered up coming out.
A troll? I was going to cut down those bolts, but they actually keep the rope mod from spinning and keeps it in the direction that I’m going to use it so I’m going to let them be.
I am using the 3 step aider from OOAL. I get about 6’ on the first move a little lower on the others. The only thing it is missing is the top step lol.
@@platinumpursuitoutdoors im going to get the ultimate aider just not 💯 % on the stick I want. I have a full length hawk helium I’m practicing with now not crazy about it. Definitely putting a cam cleat on thanks for the how to video
At this point in time, my primary method is climbing sticks. I’ve just been messing around with the one stick to see how much practical application it has and if it’s even worth it.
I bought a mini Shikar for this exact purpose. I can't seem to find a shafer cam cleat in stock anywhere. Any suggestions? I also haven't seen a cam cleat that came with the hard wear.
I’ve got a mini coming and this method makes one sticking look much faster and quieter than buckles. What size cleat are you using and what kind of rope?
I’m not sure about S or M but it has a 300lbs rating. If you type in Hearken Cam Cleat on Amazon you can get one that is black red and has a 300lbs rating.
Can a full length shikar sticks be cut down to a mini one stick?
I wouldn’t see why not.
Did you use hardware for the cam cleat? What do you recommend? Thanks again.
I used the provided screws if that’s what you mean?
@@platinumpursuitoutdoors oh okay. Wasn’t sure if you had to source them out yourself. Thanks.
No when you purchase the schaefer cleat it comes with the mounting hardware.
I just got mine in and it has 3 pre tapped holes and two of them line up perfect with this harken cam cleat. But I think maybe the threads are different. Just wondering if ooal is making them with the right holes and threads
So I believe they have started to just pre-drill holes for the cam Cleat so that people didn’t have to do that.

Nice man! Good luck!
@@platinumpursuitoutdoors I ended up just drilling a through hole and bolted it with the hardware it came with. Works fine no issues.
Sweet!
Which size cam is this?
That's what I'm trying to figure out
Hey guys, sorry I missed this… here is the one I got off of Amazon… Schaefer Fast Entry Cam Cleat for Line Sizes Upto 7/16-Inch, 12mm,

Does the bottom step still pivot close to the post, or is the cleat in the way now?
They still fold up but not perfectly flat. See my latest video on the Shikar stick and you will see what I am talking about.

The hardware came with the cam cleat. As far as purchasing the rope mod, you can get them off of doublestep.com. Let me know if that helps.

I’m pretty going to get the same mini stick. What aider are you using just wondering how high you can get on each move

Sweet that’s a great aider!
When going in blind to a new spot do you do climbing sticks or just the One stick?
At this point in time, my primary method is climbing sticks. I’ve just been messing around with the one stick to see how much practical application it has and if it’s even worth it.
@@platinumpursuitoutdoors Thank you very much for the reply
Yeppers, anytime I can help, let me know.

Amazon has them for $20-$24

I’m not following?
I’ve got a mini coming and this method makes one sticking look much faster and quieter than buckles. What size cleat are you using and what kind of rope?
I am using 1/8” full burry amsteel. It’s recommended to have at lest 3/16th.
Small or medium cleat you use for that?
I’m not sure about S or M but it has a 300lbs rating. If you type in Hearken Cam Cleat on Amazon you can get one that is black red and has a 300lbs rating.
You may have said it but what size Amstel did you use?
I used 1/8” but 3/16th is recommended!
