Come on boys, it's time to share your secrets, with pics!
Show your VT setup, and if you're feeling real generous lets hear hitch length, fave pulley, wraps/trusses and cord type.
What's the secret to get the least setback?
I'm still mucking around but I'm liking the XT variant, 4 wraps, 3 trusses with one X just after the wraps. 30" 8mm Beeline I2I on poison ivy, spliced eye, hitchclimber pulley and only one beener, in the bottom hole. The XT seems more predictable to me than the VT, and there doesn't seem to be any penalty.
I'm liking this setup, it's smooth and predictable, but I'm getting about 3" setback. That's a lot more than my older klemheist setup. How can I reduce it? Shorter hitch cord?
I've got the whole shebang on a leash, which leaves it out where my klemheist used to be from my harness. I tried clipping it straight to my bridge but I like being able to reach up and pull down. Anyone else using a leash? Mine is about 18" on a treemotion saddle.
