Why We Like The Wild Country Ropeman 1 Ascender
Stronger and lighter than ever before, the Wild Country Ropeman 1 Ascender helps us explore the ups and downs of the vertical world. The sideplates are now hot forged for burlier performance at a lower gram count while still giving us a quick rope load with their sprung construction. Whether we're hauling, rappelling, or ascending, the flat cam profile requires less strain to release for smoother operation.

Amazing for my saddle hunting set up
The ropeman 1 works beautifully paired with my 11mm linemans rope and tether. The makes adjustments to each rope so much easier. There hasn't been any slipping or feeling of insecurity after 6 sits with this product. I'd recommend this to any saddle hunter with an 11mm rope system. Just the thing I needed to streamline my saddle hunting use!

ROPEMAN 1 Hunting Use Review
Great tool for using on your lineman’s rope and tether rope. Using the lineman’s rope with the ropeman ascender allows you to get closer and farther from the tree you are climbing all with a single hand allowing you to move up the tree quicker even with having climbing sticks or other various accessories in your other hand. On the other hand, using it on the tether rope allows for less time precisely getting it in a comfortable position for using on a hang on stand but especially while saddle hunting. I personally have transitioned into saddle hunting this year and using the ascender has been the best purchase by far.

It works well
It does what it’s supposed to do. I use it with 11mm rope and it works well.

Saddle Hunt with Confidence
I have been saddle hunting for the last year, half way through this season I purchased the Ropeman, integrating with my set up, has made a night and day difference. It allows me to make quick adjustments to my tether without have the fear of it slipping. I would recommend for beginners and experts to make the switch.

I'm using these for sling hunting this year. Both ascenders are working great and only take a few minutes to get accustomed to how they function.
