3 yrs with the same line 'zing it' stuck many times:blushing: pulled over trees & hung my body weight on it to retrive it from sticky situations.

Top line imo with an 8oz weight on my throwing end & a 12oz weight on the other.

IT does depend how it went back in the bag, i always put the bags in the pockets, but when its in my kit bag it can get shook around and the bags work themselves out of the patches. I halved the 150' i had because that would get tangled every time it went in, which was fustrating, i find the piece of wood is ok, it stops it getting tangled, its easy enough to pack away.

 

Its worst when somebody else usus my line and instead of flaking the string into the bag, they just pick it all up and dump it in. Thats happened a couple of times and never will again because people just dont know what to do even when i say flake it back in. bah.

 

Other times its been fine, can open it and use it right away. just need to be more careful, as much as i am now.

 

You halved the 150ft? What on earth for? How do you get your throwbag to the top of a tree?

 

Zzzzzzzzing it here with an 8oz and a 10oz either end stored in a cube.

Exactly. I can just see it now. Large multiple stemmed broad leaf, stems leaveain trunk at about 15ft then the main central stem that's perfect for the anchor point doesn't have another limb for about 45ft. Good luck mate. Hahaha

I can imagine one guy holding the end of the line and the throwbag swinging tantalisingly about 4ft above the other guys head whilst he jumps up and down for an hour mimicking an NBA player. Haha
