That would solve problems. Just talked to the guy, and his is in shop. I think he learned a few lessons, I know I did.

Taking mine every trip has cost me a long time friendship this year, though. I've not said anything here, but I've been torn up for months over it. 50 year friendship......because someone is selfish enough to 'use' me and my stuff and never use his own, or never do a turnaround. I guess I'm not smart enough to do stuff the right way, and also too naive to see when I'm being used.

And yeah, a simple stringer would have helped!

As to the deer, I can't see myself doing that. Not sure what it would accomplish. I have hung them for days, of course. But not weeks. I am not in one spot for weeks..........
