Let me know what saddle hunting gear you will be bringing and I will post it in this first post. I have to pick and choose what I am bringing since I'm flying in so if someone else is bringing it I won't.

I told @ImThere I would bring my size 2 kestrel. If anyone else is bringing a size 2 I may leave it home and just bring my anderson sling. I'm bringing the lightest saddle hunting setup I have. I pretty much have 1 of everything else so I can bring it if we need to fill in some gaps.

Red if you have a RCH you may want to get rid of I may be needing. Will depend on if Ernie’s fits. Looks like I’m borderline on his. Don’t want to add to your pack list though

I've been pondering this exact dilemma.

I've narrowed it down to a leather Trophyline Tree Saddle!

I'm in the basement trying to figure out my pack list as, well.

I decided to go with

Spurs, kestrel size 1, klemz platform, and rapelling rope.

Basically the same setup I use for most of my deer hunts
