I have a JX3 Hybrid. For those that do not know, it's the most comfortable thing hanging from a tree anywhere in any tree. No debate about that. However, I am shooting this season trad - I have a relatively short recurve (60") and it's certainly possible to shoot it from the JX3, particularly while standing/leaning, but I was listening to a podcast recently - The Stick Boys Podcast - and they had a fella on there named Joey Buchanan (anybody know him?) that mentioned ever so briefly that he shoots his trad, long bows from the JX3 while seated. And, he went on to say that he does this by doing something with his lineman's belt on his tether... He mentioned the actual method very quickly and only in passing and I can find no images, or details of this method. I am going to play and experiment, but has anybody else figured this system out? To be able to shoot the trad bow from the JX3 while sitting means I could be virtually motionless in the woods, sans the occasional nose scratch or something like that. The JX3 is literally THAT Comfortable. And we all know the best camo is being quiet and being still... I find myself fidgeting in my trophyline and sit drag and other sling style saddles.
Anybody know this voodoo technique that Mr Buchanan was talking about?
