Re: Half Hitch before Bowline
|
True, second part false. The half hitch adds security plus speads the weight out because of less bend ratio on the rope. The bowline by itself is secure in my opinion but to save my rope I always put the half hitch, even if the loads are static and I am close the swl of the rope I'll put the half hitch.
