Throw line and throw weights and techniques

[swingdude]

Two falteimers, 4 10oz HR's for up to 80'max and a big shot with 14/16 oz for 60' and over in dense tight stuff...like Adam's butt....

 

I throw with my right hand....never could master the cradle throw...

What line are you using Paul? Liros "Magic Speed" 3mm is lovely stuff!

You rate the Ropeknight Al? It's quite a Gadget...and comes with many modification bits and pieces:thumbup:

 

 

It's an excellent bit of kit. Very functional and easy to use. It's also more slippery than any other device on the market so it pulls back through branches with less chance of getting stuck.

Reg coates done a review of the ropeknight silky its very informative

[silky fox]

I've seen it...twice....he got sent some tinned fish with it i seem to remember:D

Paul I have been using Dynaglide for years, cannot remember what dia...when I get to UK I will try some different lines...just to see...I am very openminded

The best piece of kit from the rope knight seems to be the little thimble thingy that slide onto the end of your rope...looks like a bullet, that helps ease it through those tight crotches....I have not seen the whole kit mind you or even tried it...but I love the look of that piece....have a guy in Southern Cal in the US making me three similar thingys so I will see how they work....it can be a real pisser when one's rope does not want to get through the crotch after all the work to get to that point....start over or just do a pruning cut 1" off the ground...hmmm AGGGH

Thanks for the interesting read lads!

 

Just a quick one to add to it - no one has mentioned the Stein Cubes are on chains direct for £13 delivered at the min. Regardless of whether they're not as good as the £70 cubes, £13 delivered is a bargain in anyones eyes!! Just got one myself.
