Switch to a tagline for my hoist limits saved me 20 minutes per job

I was spending forever measuring and re-measuring boom angles until I just used a piece of paracord marked at specific lengths as a quick reference. Has anyone else tried something like a physical marker instead of relying on the load chart every time?

Used to be a pure load chart guy myself, thought anything else was cutting corners or whatever. Then my buddy showed me his marked-up paracord setup and I was honestly surprised how much faster it made things. Now I got a piece of bright orange cord with little knots and paint marks for my most common lifts, and I'm hitting accurate angles nearly every time without pulling out the book. Saves me the headache of second guessing myself on the fly.
