i use the lasher wire all the time in my one woods and it works great. i have a tool i built myself to hold the wire. you just have to know the right sequence to putting in the fiitings and when to run the wire. also if it does break( not very often) it only loosens up a couple of feet on each side. since it is stainless i can roll it back up and use it again elsewhere if i take a line out. try that with wire ties! all that said i would never use ties again in my own woods!
