Bungies are less elegant but work also :)

I use a screen door spring attached with a caribener(sp). Real easy to attach-un attach.

That's a great idea. And less Mickey Mouse looking than bungies.

Whoa! Second only to duct tape, bungees are great world class problem solvers! Door springs and carabiners are #17? ;-)

I actually use three HD tywraps to secure hoses on my grapple. Replace them every time I re-install grapple. Use the black UV resistant ones.
