He is the guy who designed the original lone wolf assassin/harness combo.

I’ve never laid eyes on one, but I take that he is describing that he basically stands and/or slightly leans, no sitting?

I love that lone wolf custom gear is bringing back all the things that lone wolf portable treestands stopped producing lol. Also is cool to see andrae producing the products again. Feel like he would be more in tune with what’s needed in the hunting world.
Looks like they are bringing back the mini sticks again love the mini sticks. The new design looks great too.
The platform looks great and great to see so many options coming out to hopefully get more and more people involved with saddle hunting so every company can continue to have new customers each year. Still think the price is steep and like the predator platform weight and the WINGS from Tethrd.

Another new saddle coming?

From lone wolf custom, at the bottom of the platform description:

"Coming Soon - Brad's patented harness."

I met Brad back in the late 90’s. We kept in touch for a while. We were not “friends”, just a couple guys who would talk about hunting. He was guiding bear hunts back then and working with Andre at LW. He never talked about saddle hunting back then but hardly any one did. I wouldn’t doubt he was using a saddle of some kind back then. He struck me as someone who thinks outside the box.

I just remembered Brad and I walked down to the Treesuit booth at the ATA show in Indianapolis to check it out. It was the first year Treesuit was there. I became a dealer for Treesuit the next year and sold a few...maybe 20 or so. Like I said...late 90’s.
