Very well said. I give him all the credit as well. I have a time convincing others that it's okay to use but If they'd seen as many "educated climber" videos as I have, they wouldn't doubt it either😁
After spending ten minutes untying a loaded knot the other day (thinking there has to be a better way) I remembered your method and watched this video to make sure I got it right. What a difference after a day of pulling logs. It's quick, easy to adjust, and works! It is ugly though, haha, but who cares when work has to get done. Thanks for sharing!
Years ago I screen recorded you tying this knot in a video and I slowed it down with editing just to learn the technique. Thanks for making this vid. SUPER clear.
In my first year of tree work. I've used this knot you taught from day 1 and absolutely love it. And yet now I see that i failed to put a second twist in the left hand before i pull through. Glad I was adding half hitches...again as you taught. Thanks man.
Well done my friend. The repetitiveness starting slow to fast really helps drive this lesson home. As others have stated, the ground guys like it too for ease of untying.
I'm a know nothing with a porta wrap a few rings and many hours of watching you and few others but mostly you This knot...Thank you I'll still run the rabbit around the tree and back into the hole for fish hooks cause that's how my dad taught me but for anything else daisy chain hitch is the way
Yes Sir! Ever since I saw you demonstrate the tie on a cemetery job, I was sold! The groundies love it since it is always the same tie and even if she yanks tight, it is still a easy un tie! Thank you!
Enjoyed the video. Nice quick tying - as well as untying - knot. I use both....Daisy Chain and Bowline....depending on the situation. It is much easier for the ground person to untie. Thanks. AAA
what are the limitations of this knot? would you use it to lift something with a small diameter, like a handle of a butane tank? (to lift on a roof) how many turns you need for it to be sufficently secure to take pieces of the tree to the ground? i know it's not one to hold a person, but it'd be interesting to learn more about your experience with it
Curious, to yourself and others reading this… have you ever had a daisy chain hitch fail when used for rigging. How far would you push the use of it in terms of weight?
I wonder how many tree workers you, and others, have inspired and educated through you tube. Certainly appreciated. Especially when I realize I've tied this knot wrong for way too long.
Cant wait to try this out in the field. Check out my new SRT up a TREE video. Really need to get more footage and do all the fancy editing lol. Love your content man!
I know your right, I should know my running bowline upside down and backwards. Rather then tying it the way I prefer. Sometimes a tree will not alow for you to tie it, the way you prefer. It will demand for you, to do it upside down and backwards. Sometimes my brain refuses to function and will not allow for me to do that. When that happens, my brain fills the gap with this daisy chain, just as seen here in this video. Throughout the typical 40hr grind. If a coworker seen me using the daisy chain, they break my ball's every time. Just do a running bowline they say. They say, I dont know how strong that is. So frustrating! I'm going to master the running bowline, that I thought I had already mastered. In the mean time, to prevent us from going over on time with this job, just eat this f****** daisy chain and climb down out of my ass😠😡😤wtf it's probably stronger than a running bowline anyway. I was thinking outloud again😳 Sorry about that crew leader, my bad😁😎
This daisy chain method would be useful only for specifically when I would plan ahead to leave some slacking line at beginning of some setup such as hammock etc. Nice video
Patrick, I can't lie....as former USN, raised by USN, 30 years in the tree business, with several college credits in the textile sciences....I HATE KNOTS!!! But, somehow, you help me to love them again like I sorta-kinda did in my youth!
How do you know Ray Mears? I worked with him in 2001 while producing Extreme Survival Alaska! He’s a cool dude and if he endorses that knot/hitch it’s legitimate!
I watched a different video of you lowering sections of limb with this hitch now seeing this there was a *click* in my brain as to why, it works for you up in the tree, there is not a bothersome dangling rope end and the ground support has one pull to free the line from the load GENIUS
So simple & elegant. Never let's me down. Compared to others it's a no-brainer. Glad u did this to show how it is done & also to show how repeatable it is. Thanks.
I have used this approach for about 25 years but not with a double twist, only a single twist. I can see how the double twist greatly increases the holding power. Thanks.
Enjoy and learn from your videos How does daisy chain compare to running bowline Also Looks like might be alternative to bowline on a bight. How does it perform and tighten in a setting like pulling over a back leaner. I do a lot of disaster relief cleanup

Finally a “how to” that’s slow enough for guys like me who don’t learnt real fast.
Learned it from you, always give you full credit for it. So grateful for all you've taught me over the years. Thank you sir. As always, helluva job.

#1 time saver on the job site.
Extremely useful for new ground guys that have trouble un-tying knots…
Years ago I screen recorded you tying this knot in a video and I slowed it down with editing just to learn the technique.
Thanks for making this vid. SUPER clear.
Thanks for tying that for over 7 minutes! Makes it pretty great for practicing and not having to reload a knot app step by step. You rock.
This is the most proper way to teach knot tieing that Iv ever seen.
I was still delaying to learn this useful knot. Now there's no excuse. Many thanks for your time and knowledge
I use this every single day at work since I saw you're video about the best knot you never knew, brilliant. Thank you.
In my first year of tree work. I've used this knot you taught from day 1 and absolutely love it. And yet now I see that i failed to put a second twist in the left hand before i pull through. Glad I was adding half hitches...again as you taught. Thanks man.
love this knot , learnt it from your video and tied it 44 times at work today !
Patrick I use this knot in all my rigging since I seen it on your channel
Well done my friend. The repetitiveness starting slow to fast really helps drive this lesson home. As others have stated, the ground guys like it too for ease of untying.
Liking these "watch until you learn" been showing these videos to my groundman
I use it all the time when i'm rigging its the best knot ever and very fast to tie, learned it from you.
I'm a know nothing with a porta wrap a few rings and many hours of watching you and few others but mostly you
This knot...Thank you
I'll still run the rabbit around the tree and back into the hole for fish hooks cause that's how my dad taught me but for anything else daisy chain hitch is the way
Used it yesterday! It’s my go to now! Thanks man!!!
Thank you Patrick!
Yes Sir! Ever since I saw you demonstrate the tie on a cemetery job, I was sold! The groundies love it since it is always the same tie and even if she yanks tight, it is still a easy un tie! Thank you!
As always, thanks for taking the time to show us. Much appreciated mate ✌️
Really get a lot from your videos. Your out of the box thinking always brings a different approach to even run of the mill jobs. Keep it up.
Very good for last two knot videos - looking for more knot videos - midline rope (butterfly for example) etc.
I've been waiting for this one
Your the only one I've seen use this I was nervous AF the first time I used it but worked excellent 👏
Great knot, thanks for the slow mo!
Enjoyed the video. Nice quick tying - as well as untying - knot. I use both....Daisy Chain and Bowline....depending on the situation. It is much easier for the ground person to untie. Thanks. AAA
Simple, effective and astonishingly useful. Works on doubled lines as well. Learn and live! Thanks Patrick.
I’ve been using this more and more since I learned it from you, great hitch!
Loving this series

This might be the best video I’ve EVER -EVER EVER ,SEEN 👍🏾
So glad I signed up. Your talent for teaching is incredible. Thank you.
I really enjoy these videos. I'm wondering if you have any videos on tree risk assessment.
One of the most practical slip knots I've ever seen. This technique is slicker than owl shit on a linoleum floor! Thank you.
This is my pace thank you
Lots of birds calling in the background. Even some turkeys.
Thanks for the tutorial.
Is this what you use when your down rigging a large branch to control its decent?
I use a daisy chain for anything that I want to be able to untie.
Yes! He throws on a half Hitch first.
GREAT VIDEO
excellent
Kowabunga! There she is. Thanks my man.
I use this instead of a running bowline everytime now
I do also.
Curious, to yourself and others reading this… have you ever had a daisy chain hitch fail when used for rigging. How far would you push the use of it in terms of weight?
Ive seen this on a few other channels but they make it complicated and they dont daisy chain it. I always send them here to see how it's really done.
Love these videos man.
Only channel I have the 🔔 on for
Can't tell you how much I appreciate it ✌️. - Patrick
I wonder how many tree workers you, and others, have inspired and educated through you tube. Certainly appreciated. Especially when I realize I've tied this knot wrong for way too long.
I’m used to seeing you do it with that orange line 😄
this is how I store my extension cords so they stay untangled
Same here, I daisy chain 100 footers, so much easier to deal with.
@@twocyclediesel1280 sweet... i mark the center and double them up that way you can unravel only as much as you need and its twice as fast
@@jbbolts I double them but haven’t marked the center, good idea.
Thank you buddy so much
Awesome 🤙
Is this hitch as strong as the running bowline in rigging? @EducatedClimber
Cant wait to try this out in the field. Check out my new SRT up a TREE video. Really need to get more footage and do all the fancy editing lol. Love your content man!
Thanks.
Can you/would you use this in place of a Running Bowline?
Nice
Ah ha, I 'see' the figure 8
ruclips.net/video/3VrK2O3YRjc/видео.html. More info on tying this hitch. I'm pretty green and so I need plenty of knot basics.
I know your right, I should know my running bowline upside down and backwards. Rather then tying it the way I prefer. Sometimes a tree will not alow for you to tie it, the way you prefer.

Green leaves, green rope…..bad idea
A lot cooler than replaying one go through several times. 🪢
Thanks for everything you do to help teach our trade. 🤘
Thank you. This is better than your previous one that you did indoors...but was also useful!
This daisy chain method would be useful only for specifically when I would plan ahead to leave some slacking line at beginning of some setup such as hammock etc.
Nice video
Salut merci pour t video que tu partage, sa vas me venir en aide
very good explanation
Patrick, I can't lie....as former USN, raised by USN, 30 years in the tree business, with several college credits in the textile sciences....I HATE KNOTS!!!
But, somehow, you help me to love them again like I sorta-kinda did in my youth!
I don't cut many trees, but I use this for other things since I saw you do it. It is really nice. Thank you.

So simple & elegant. Never let's me down. Compared to others it's a no-brainer. Glad u did this to show how it is done & also to show how repeatable it is. Thanks.
What is this rope, 14mm? Looks good,thx
Thank you for the slow motion
Use this all the time
Ok... Does me no good if you don't tell me what's it good for...!
Shortens the line, what else?
I use it in place of a running bowline for all my rigging
How do you feel about the integrity of this as a canopy anchor? I can see leaving that final tail long and using it to pull the system down.......
I use it for a temporary anchor on the way up as I'm advancing. It's bomber for life support as far as I'm concerned...
Great instruction…like the turkeys yelping in the background…
I have used this approach for about 25 years but not with a double twist, only a single twist. I can see how the double twist greatly increases the holding power. Thanks.

Thanks Patrick. Your the best!
What would you use this knot for?
Excellent teaching video thank you. Practiced on my kitchen chair for hours. Took me awile to go from a vertical to a horizontal.
