    Esplain please. Do you burn a hole in the end of the strap and tie the reflective cord through it?

    Thanks for adding those. I'd just about decided I'd make my own since I didn't see any in your store. "I'm in " as they say. Thanks Dutch
    No matter where you go...There you are..

    That is the easiest way, or you can sew a simple loop on the end.

    I think what you are describing may be the better way to go, but I currently have my toggles attached to the same loop my dutch clips are attached to. This works fine, as I've had them like this for a couple of years.

    Here is a pic of how I've attached my toggles. If you do it this way, just make sure your toggle tether is long enough to easily use it. I always make my marlingspike hitch pretty close to the tree and my tether is about 7 inches long. This is about as short as I'd want it.

    Looks good Dutch! Methinks they will contribute towards an evolution to whoopie slings....

    I have my toggles larksheaded to my whoopies. It's always worked well for me.

    I'm sure it's simple in use but I cannot origami my mind around this method.

    So it's not just me that doesn't get it. What if we are the only two who don't?

    (Afterthought: Ah!... Unless of course the MSH is always snug up against the Dutch Clip but in that case why not just flip the strap around, use an Adutchable, and larkshead the WS and tree strap together?)

    I personally put then on the free end of the strap. That way I can put the toggle at any point of the strap.
