    EDP vs Seeker

    I've been using an EDP for 3 years now, and I like it a lot. Very solid, not too heavy. Recently I put together a one-stick setup with a angled U.P. platform, and I've gotta say that angled edge is much more comfortable for me when leaning, which I do most of the time. How does the Seeker...

    Knee Pad review

    I used the cheap Harbor Freight knee pads the past 2 seasons, and they were fine but got uncomfortable after a while. Recently I picked up a set of the Klein Tools gel knee pads. They have a lot more cushioning, a flatter face, and the rubber outer coating is more rigid, but still soft enough to...

    I was dumb...

    I'm new to one-sticking. Yesterday was my second climb, which went very well. I had 6 deer within 60 yards and they didn't know I was there but never got a shot opportunity. Anyways, I was using the Ohm tether locker for the first time and I thought I would just clip my pull down rope to the...

    Dedicated platform vs on-stick platform

    I'm looking at ways to simplify my setup and cut some weight. For those that have used a on-stick platform like the EWO U.P. what are the pros and cons? I'm not that worried about the actual size as much as the stability and side-pressure. Currently using a EDP platform for reference.

    Will a EDP platform fit in a XL Predator Pack? Are there other options for platform packs?

    I have an EDP platform that I really like, but I'm looking for a better way to carry it and strap it onto my pack or saddle. The Predator Pack looks like what I'd want, but I'm not sure the EDP would fit in the XL size.

    Anyone swap cam cleats from Muddy Pro onto other sticks?

    I have 3 Muddy Pros and 4 Hawk minis right now. I really like the cam cleat on the Pros, but they weight almost a pound more per stick than my Hawk sticks with webbing daisy chains. Has anyone swapped cam cleats from Muddy Pros onto other sticks? Is it worth the hassle for a little weight...

    Attachment strap angle amd platform position

    When hanging sticks and/or platform, should you wrap the strap around the tree level with the button, or angled above or below? How do you avoid kick-out? Should you place your platform at the same level as your top step, just off to the side so it's easier to get onto?

    DIY aiders

    I'm on a budget and want to make some single step aiders for my Hawk 20" sticks. Amsteel would be great but it's expensive. I've seen people use 7mm accessory cord before. Is that overkill? Would 6mm hold up ok? I'm 5'11" and 170 pounds.

    Tether and Lineman material

    I'm just getting into saddle hunting and starting from scratch. I purchased a used saddle and now need the rest of the gear. Question is, is it worth it to buy more expensive lineman and tether line the Oplux set that Cruzr sells, or just go with a cheaper option like the Trophyline ropes...

    Howdy from Oregon but soon to be Georgia

    Dropping in to say hi. I have lived in western Oregon all my life (35 years) except for four years I was in the Marine Corps. I've never hunted out of a tree stand or saddle before. I started bow hunting 2 years ago, have shotgun and rifle hunted for 20+ years, always from the ground. Since I...
