    Just what I've been looking for since I don't have panniers, yet anyway. Not sure I want them after seeing how quick and simple to tie these on you make it look. Clear concise video, straight to the point. Thanks for an excellent demo.

    Good stuff one day I'll try that setup. Untill then I'll just be plugging along with my old sawbucks and canvas and leather bags as long as there is rocks I'll always have a level load LOL.

    Crows foot seems to be a popular thing as of late,! Never used to see it much , now most sling loads you see have a crows foot ?

    Can you do a video of how you take care of your stock in camp e.g feeding, high line, hobbles, etc?

    Nice work. Love deckers and sling/manty ropes. Packed that exact way for many years. I watched you pack elk quarters and again we did it the same way you guys do. HOWEVER...one thing, please cut those legs off and don't pack them home. It looks terrible to see those legs sticking up in the air. That's the way I was taught many years ago...would have got a boot in the butt if I brought those legs back to camp.

    Hi, I'm also wondering where you bought the cinch with the hooks attached ?
  • @beartrack
    Where could I get a chinch like that??? Is there a website I can look into???

    What length do you recommend for your sling ropes?
