retractable that doesnt retract anymore but I like it clipped to my belt loop and it never tangles so I just manually wind it up once I get my bow pulled up and on the hook.

1/8 Inch nylon plastic coated rope. I tie It so It's level with my head while standing on my tree stand. It hangs down the back side of my tree away from my tree pegs about 6 feet off of the ground. Never leaves the tree till the end of the year or If It's one of those stands I leave up and hunt every year It stays year round.

At the end of the rope I'll tie a 3 Inch stick to It. I try to find sticks a 1/4 Inch thick In diameter. I tie the rope to the middle of the stick. Works great, been doing It for years.

I do the exact same thing I have a little cloth pouch that hangs from the top piece of my climber I put the rope back in when I am done with it.

Can't go wrong with flat rope...

I can't believe that there is 3 pages talking about pull ropes. It's definitely the off season. :)
