Okay, I went to senneca to climb last weekend and I am seeing more climbers use the clove hitch for a tie in point. I had talked with the climbers that were using the clove hitch and they liked it for it was easy adjusted. I had done some reading on it and looked at some other fourms. Is anyone on this forum using the clove hitch for a tie point?. I was hoping for a discussion on the pro's and cons. I tried it last night on my home climbing wall and it held my weight. But it still scares me. I prefer the figure eight or the bow line with a Yosemite back up. Your thoughts.
