Wild Country Ropeman 1 Ascender

Im using this as a replacement prussic knot for my lineman belt on a Trophyline Tree Saddle. If you are buying this for hunting purposes, you will not be disappointed. I originally bought the Ropeman 2, but it didnt work for the lineman belt.

Good

Autumn works great looks very sound construction

Great and serves its purpose

Easy to use. Grabs the rope great. All around great investment.

Great size. I like the teeth on the #1. Easier if you need to go back and forth.

Dont buy a cheap knockoff. I did and returned asap and then farted around until I just said ok and got this. The feel of it makes you know its the real deal and safe.

Im 260lbs and had no issues using or trusting it

After watching a bunch of Youtube videos I started learning a lot of people were using rope and Kongs or this Ropeman 1 with their climbing linesmans rope. I went to REI and checked these out in person and determined the Ropeman 1 was going to be easier to use for my style of climbing. This setup with good climbing rope works really well to hang climbing sticks, its fast to adjust but also equally gives a solid lock up on the rope...lean into the tree and pull the rope to stay in close to the tree or pull the wire loop and let some slack out to provide more room while ascending the tree.

This works exactly as described and it smooth to operate. Very solid.
