    Lone wolf handclimber/ Saddle combo Part 3

    My question is how good should your physcal shape should be using a tree saddle

    Like many of the other posts - I don't want to pack all that weight in and out. Using sticks require much less effort than using a saddle and climber top.

    My question is how good should your physcal shape should be using a tree saddle

    I'm 56 and had 40 plus pack in saddle hunts this last year. I have saddle hunted on and off 20 plus years. But I couldn't walk away from my lone wolf sit climb with a hazmore seat.

    Saddle bridge..home sewn

    I use a 24" sewn loop for a bridge when I build a saddle. Just put it where it is supposed to be prior to sewing. Works great!

    Breath Cleansing?

    I too have been thru the no scent ritual. When I was young I would quit eating meat and drinking coffee a month prior to season....and take chlorophyll capsules. I would drive to my hunting location and strip down then re-dress into scentless clothes, brush my teeth and gargle with baking soda...

    HuntStand
