Im ruining the 2 step hawks sticks and do exactly like you mentioned. 1 on the tree, 1 placed ontop of that stick then 2 tied off behind. I really like the sticks, especially with the amsteel rope mod. Ill have to find a more efficient way. Id like to try something else to compsre but these havent even seen a full season yet. But theyve been used hard all off season
That's awesome dude, I'll be deer hunting for the first time this year and I'm in my mid thirties. Didn't grow up with it so I'm learning most of everything from guys like you. Not sure if you're in Georgia but I'll be hunting wmas and middle in south Georgia if you have any tips or suggestions.
@mgodbee heck yea I was same way I started late in life lol. I learned most everything from RUclips too. I'm in northwest GA haven't ever hunted in middle or south ga not sure what terrain is like around there honestly focus on basics like food and cover that's what I have done and while I'm not exactly killing monsters I do ok lol. Just enjoy it and learn all you can from anyone my first year on public here I didn't kill a single deer but I learned a lot. Check out southern outdoorsman podcast I've picked up a ton on there
@@Rooster_king I did not know that lol I knew they'd come out with different versions since this one I thought this was the first though lol learn something new all the time. What's the difference between this one and a first gen?
@chickamaugabowhunter2067 The first gen had less aluminum casting and different web pattern near the standoff portion of the platform. There were several that snapped so they beefed it up a bit.
@@gordonc615 yea I'll give you that they do have some sharper parts but I've got used to it and don't seem to notice it anymore. Maybe subconsciously I just work around it and that's why I don't notice it lol.

The only thing I d9nt like about em is they're sharp. When I go to pull them apart or something I'll cut my finger or something

I agree. Best stick for that price range. Skeletors are probably the best budget stick
