Okay, these came in the mail yesterday. All I can say is... Wow. Lightweight!!

The bulk factor is my only concern, are they big?

Bulk factor of longer tree straps?? I guess my first pic don't have a measurement item it in to show how small the 6ft straps do not take up much room at all. I plan to get the longer ones when i order the spiders.

I have a pair of the 15' Dyneema/Poly tree straps and I am able to stuff them into the stock Dutch stuff sack, along with my Dutch Half-Wit, Spiders, and Dutch Clip, with room to spare. So, not big at all and lighter than the poly straps.

They are slightly bigger than polyester straps. It is only a slight difference and they are a little more flexible so they wind up a little more packable in the end. If you want to reduce bulk, then look at Kevlar. You can cup a 15 foot Kevlar strap in your fist.

Does the Kevlar work on any of buckles, bugs or spiders? Or only a whoopie hook suspension?

It is too thin for hardware so it is more for Marlin spike hitch or huggers. That is why I developed the Dyneema straps, it is a light weight stap but it still has the thickness to work with buckles and such.
