    Default gator point question

    I have always had a short stretch of steel attaching my main line to the gator point when using an arrow or harpon. Have never had a line break or a tip pull out this way. Does anyone go straight to the gator point with the line???? Wondering if the steel is necessary????

    I will probably not even use a steel cable this year. Just double loop a length of braid...

    All the ones I have been involved in killing we have had the cable but have been noticing some people don't mess with the cable on the arrow points. Just getting some opinions before this season. I think I have 7 to kill before I leave for ND on 30th

    fuck the cable... you dont need it.... i dont even use the 600lb gator cord shit... all its ever done is tangle all to hell for me...

    get you some 400lb fast flight and be done with it... tie it straight to the point.... if the ones we killed last year didnt break it, i think its good to go.
