    Clark Straps

    Okay so I ordered Whoopie slings and then got some Buckles from Dutch. Then yesterday I put the whoopies on and was going to put the buckles on my straps that I ordered with my NX-250. That's when I noticed that my straps are two inches and not one inch like the buckles are for. I actually like that the straps are two inches (should keep the tree even safer, and I am 6'3' and 270 lbs so I like the bigger strap)

    My thought is this. If I get a set of caribiners, can I put them in one of the loops on the strap and then wrap the whoppie sling around them just like I would the Dutch buckles? I will find another use for the buckles, I am thinking of scavanging an old tie down strap and then can use the buckle to hang my pack from. But I am just curious what anyone thinks about the caribiner idea.

    Thanks.

    Clip the beiner in to the strap loops and then clip the whoopie into the beiner. This will work and there is no chance the whoopie can come off the strap.
