This is probably a silly question, but which is the best way to attach the uphaul when the boom doesn't have the little hole in the head to thread a rope through. Got a new unifiber modular boom with the twin mast clamps, awesome boom but Ive never had a boom without the hole at the front. So only one of 2 ways I can think of.

1. Thread the mast through the uphaul loop above the boom or,
2. Attach to one side of the boom itself right next to the head.

Do any of you guys out there do it a different way?
