    I've got a question. I have always been taught not to use climbing rope as a bull rope because a dynamic rope is hazardous if snapped. And a bull rope should be a static rope for predictable and safe winching. Dynamic for catching and lowering, static for restraining and pulling. Is this wrong ?

    Here it is folks! Sorry but for some reason my camera is not taking a good picture; it's a bit distorted. I can assure you that our wall is a bit straighter than it appears in this picture.

    Welcome to the forum clay shooter

    For those who won't know who clay shooter is, he is someone I met on another forum and we have kept in contact for quite some time now. He is a good guy from over across the pond.
