I'm looking to buy a whoopie sling for my porty. Which size would be the most versatile and useful to me. I am looking for one that would make the most sense to buy and use for mid size trees. I have a long double braid eye sling I could use should the need arise to use it on a large diameter tree. I am wanting to buy a whoopie sling for convenience that would be able to be used on your average, everyday trees.
Also, if you are rigging really large wood or blocking chunks do you still use your porty or go to getting wraps on the tree the old fashioned way. Not sure I would trust a sling with the biggest pieces that I lower. I tend to go natural crotch on them and leave the block on the the ground. Seem like the same would make sense for the porty and sling... I'm talking about situations like hanging whole trees...
