The carrot patch..?	23-Aug-2010 At 4:59:57 PM	voodoo

Here's a shortlist of some common reasons people give for using them. I'm no machine bolt zealot, but I have placed some. They're really easy to place because they only need one hole and no notching/recessing. They're cheaper than rings/hangers and don't require the extensive fabrication of U's. They might be replacing like-with-like, in the case of an established route. They can't have a rope run through them so in the case of anchors they'd prevent people toproping through them. I have no particular affinity for the glue-in carrot, but then I don't see them as satan spawn either. They have their place.
