    GriGri+ mishap….Viewer discretion advised

    Tonight while going up the tree, i had some type of fault/failure. I was about 10 feet and went to sit back to get my step…..when i sat back, i kept going.

    Tethrd customer service

    I have to say, tethrd customer service in my book is 100%! I had an issue with my saddle. It was 1 month past my year of purchase….I sent them an email and receipt of purchase along with pics. They sent me a package slip via email and off it went. Sent them my old saddle back, communication...

    How to stay quite?

    Ok, so this may be a weird question. I hunt in an area where we have pines.....and a lot of them. So most of my sits are setting up on a pine tree. The problem that I have noticed is when I set my stick or platform, good god does it make some noise.... I know the easy answer to this....find...

    5 pin site

    Just got my new bow, and I’m placing a 5 pin site. Never, since I’ve started bow hunting have i used a 5 pin before….so wanted some feedback pinsets? Was thinking 20/30/40/50/and maybe a 60. Figure 10/20 isn’t much off when it comes to distance what was your hardest thing to get use to? Seems...

    Yeah….I’m gonna say it

    Tonight, spoke with a “friend” who hunts private land. He’s killed his 5th deer of the season….while I’m still looking for #1. Moral of the story. Any googin can go throw 100# of corn and shoot a deer. It takes time and patience, research and trial and error on public land. i don’t understand...

    Good evening fellow saddle hunters! I’m that guy (new to saddle hunting) and trying to get a idea and thoughts….. I recently purchased the Hawk Helium 20” sticks! I am looking at doing the rope mod. Looking at the 1/8” Amsteel for my straps. Breaking strength looks to be 2500#. So, are people...
