Amsteel Whoopie Sling Saddle Hunting

Amsteel Whoopie Sling Saddle Hunting

This one has been in the queue for a while. I used an Amsteel whoopie all last year for both lineman belt and tether.  ***Please inspect and splice Amsteel according to manufacturers requirements. I also tie the loose end of the whoopie to a carabiner or saddle bridge for extra security. 


Let me know what you think. Not sure this is used much  – there are definitely disadvantages and advantages to this style of rope. 

*Bonus advantage if you use the whoopie for your accessory belt! Get the Hooks here.

Advantages

  • Lightweight
  • Small and compact for packability
  • Bonus use for accessory belt with hooks and one less piece of gear to carry.

Disadvantages

  • Might be some extra time to set up (some time to get used to)
  • The lightweight material can get hung up on the bark of some trees, making climbing take a little time.

I am sure there are more of each, but these are the main ones I worked through!
