How to store and transport spurs?

BeaverMonkey · Jul 19, 2015

I just got my first pair of spurs and have used them a couple of times. They work great, but I worry every time I put them in a box or bag with my climbing equipment that they are tearing my other gear up. Does anyone have a good trick for storing and transporting spurs?

I gave up years ago worrying about that, but if you do a couple of wine corks pressed onto the gaffs will help you sleep at night.

Pencil top erasers,but i use the leather and velcro covers,work great,weaver I believe. I also keep em in their own bag...

Old air hose that leaked, for some reason the red holds up better.

Water hose works well too

Thanks for the replies! I guess I'll just shove some sort of cover on the actual gaffs and not worry about it anymore!

Was using drip irrigation hose but decided to seperate them attaching them to the outside of my gear box

Yep. Burnham has posted pics of his water hose guards. Nice, simple and free!

This ^ minus the bag, wrap them up with their straps and toss in back of the truck.

Gaff guards, get 'em from any tree store...and ^^^ what he said

I prefer the ceramic gaff guards. They stay PUT.

Those look nice

I hang mine in the truck, away from textiles, etc.

Garden hose and black magic (electric tape) if I have to pack pole spurs.

I only have one set of leather/ velcro, and they only fit on tree spurs.

I was hoping Burnham would repost his pics... here it is.

Looks like fuel line or something, not garden hose. Anyone, Anyone...

Any hose or line will work as long as it's the right size.

Found a $9 toolbox at wallyworld that's exactly 19 inches long - they fit in perfectly, no wiggle or chance of tearing anything else up!

Cool, but bulky - eh?
