    I've hung on these for one night and they definitely settled in. I lost at least .5 - .75 half inch off the tail.

    They are much easier to operate than a traditional soft shackle IMHO.



    Thanks Tendertoe. I actually made one identical to yours, but I just wanted a prettier knot so untied it and I went with the diamond.
    Good luck,
