Safer climbing with gear: Use this retractable gear hoist to lift bows, backpacks and other hunting equipment without leaving your hands . Clip the metal attachment to your belt, let the rope feed out as you climb, then crank the reel to bring your gear up while you remain securely on the tree stand. Reduces the risk of dropping equipment or losing balance. Prevents rope tangles and tripping hazards: The retractable design keeps the rope compact when not in use. Long, loose ropes can tangle or create a trip hazard on a stand; the builtin crank lets you quickly rewind the rope after use for a tidy, safer setup. Durable rope and compact housing: 29.5 ft of density nylon rope provides sufficient length for most tree stand setups and hauling needs. The hoist measures 3.5' x 2.5' x 0.5' for easy carry and minimal bulk on your belt or in your pack. Secure attachment options: A metal clip on the back allows fast attachment to belts or harnesses. An additional hole is provided so you can add a secondary tether or locking carabiner for extra security. Designed for efficiency and limited movement: Small footprint reduces range of motion required while on a tree stand, helping you stay stable and focused on the climb or hunt. How it works (simple steps) 1. Clip the metal attachment to your belt or harness. 2. Tie or clip your gear to the rope end. 3. Let the rope feed out as you climb or move to the stand. 4. Use the crank handle to reel the rope in and raise your gear while you remain on the stand. Practical use scenarios Hauling a compound bow to a tree stand: Clip the hoist to your belt, let the rope feed while you climb, then crank to raise the bow once seated. Lifting a backpack or packout gear: Keep hands during ascent and bring packs up to the stand without stepping off the platform. Securing miscellaneous hunting equipment (boots, decoys, camera): Use the rope and additional tether hole to keep small items secure and out of the way.
