This is my first post so if I do it incorrectly please forgive me. I just dicovered this style of hunting thru Instagram’s search feed (wildedgeinc) posted a pic. I fell in love with this concept For the run and gun idea. Stalked the saddle hunter form, podcast and watched some YouTube videos. By the way everything you guys teach is very informative! Just one question that I have that would pertain to me and guys my size. I’m 6’0 160lbs with a 32 waist I’ve been this size since my teens I don’t think I’ll ever gain weight. Should I go med or large (seeing a few post of others happier w/ a larger size). I’m a Florida hunter I’ll rarely layer heavy Unless I leave the state. Thanks for any input.

Welcome! You’ve come to the right place to learn how to spend all your money! Kidding aside it’s awesome to see guys like you consider a completely different method of hunting. You would be fine in a medium. I’m a little bigger than you and deal with some cold weather and I think the medium I have will work just fine for me.

If it wasn’t for my hunting and fishing I would be a millionare by now! I just hope tethered don’t start selling on amazon then my wife will get the notifications on my expenditures and that would be bad! Thanks for the info, I’ll get it ordered today before the presale ends!

With the amsteel bridge already sliced in, how is it secured walking to the stand, I have an idea how, just wondering what you recommended.

Run it over top of the waist belt and back through the side hip loop and tie a knot with the bridge. Holds solid and keeps the sides of the saddle tight to your body. You can also use one of the bungees with the ball on the end to connect both hip loops. That’s how I did it on my Kestrel last year

Do the micro fit adjusters come standard ? And what all comes with the saddle ?
My understanding is they do not come standard but if you purchase during this pre order phase you either get a sys hauler or micro adjuster free. I don't believe anything comes with the saddle. When I purchased it looked like the entire system was a la carte.

This is correct. The system is modular so you only have to buy what you need/want.

what is the rope used for tethrds tether and lineman's rope? What are the differences between the tether and the lineman's rope, sounds like the spliced loops are a different size, 5inch loop for the tether and small for the lineman. If the ropes are the same, why not girth hitch the lineman's rope by using a tethrd tether for a lineman's rope and eliminate a carabiner?

When do we get to see one of these instagram huntress hotties modeling it in yoga pants or cutoff jeans? That might sell a few more of these things than flingin over there mooseknuckling it up.

I now cannot unsee this.
