    Give me a few weeks. I have the Mantis. And I and waiting on my Aerohunter New Flex that is supposed to ship out in the next week or so. I am 6’6” and about 235 so pretty similar. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Latitude Method giveaway!

    Good luck with the baby! I am still a little limited on my time in a tree but we have 2.5 year old twins. I’m hoping next season will be a bit better. Thanks for the opportunity. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bridge fraying - Tethrd Menace

    I sent one of the guys a picture of mine as well. They thought it was the bury. It still makes me a little nervous. I am thinking about replacing mine with some climbing rope and making it adjustable. If it’s at the part where the diameter of the rope seems to narrow then I think it’s safe to...

    Adjustable bridge

    I guess I just don’t understand why not? It would be an easy and inexpensive thing for the manufacturer to add on. My first saddle had one on it and I didn’t realize how much I missed it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Knee issues (sprained knee)

    That’s tough man. Lots of things can go wrong in that joint. And it’s one of those things that we take for granted until there is an issue. You can ice if you think it can help, wrap for swelling, and take ibuprofen or some sort of NSAID to help with pain and inflammation. Maybe take some...

    Knee issues (sprained knee)

    Typically there are a few tests that can be done by a PT to check for knee instability. Then they can recommend imaging if necessary. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Knee issues (sprained knee)

    I had what the ortho doc called a complex tear of the medial meniscus with a flap. I could walk around 80% of the time with zero pain but I guess when that flap would get compressed by my femur and tibia it would feel like fire shooting through my leg. That sucked. He cut out all the most...

    Knee issues (sprained knee)

    Did you feel or hear a pop? I torn mine dragging a tree limb I had cut down. I felt a pretty serious pop and knew pretty quickly I had done something bad. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Knee issues (sprained knee)

    A true tear with scar tissue will only heal to about 80% of its original strength. And sometimes it just is what it is. But when you have the kind of pain he is having for that long of a time, it’s worth checking out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Knee issues (sprained knee)

    I worked as a PTA for years and I also tore a medial meniscus in 2018. They had to scope my knee. Not saying that is what you did but you obviously haven’t healed. It may be worth getting an MRI just to rule out an ACL, MCL, or meniscus tear. If you don’t have anything like that it could just...

    Anyone gun hunt out of there saddle?

    No giant, but a decent 10. 7mm REM Mag out of my saddle. It is a little more like shooting off hand but you can stabilize against the tree or on your bridge. I have even considered getting one of those stabilizing sticks and planting it on my platform. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Mantis Adjustable Bridge?

    I like this. Can you take another picture that shows the loops too? It’s cut off on the pic. I know it’s probably great but I have been considering going to climbing rope as opposed to Amsteel. I know it’s the hot thing but something about it makes me uneasy. Kind of miss my old Aero Hunter...

    Mantis Adjustable Bridge?

    Sorry if this has been covered but I would like to either add an adjustable bridge to my Mantis or replace the existing one. I have searched the forum and “The Google” and haven’t come up with anything. Just wondering if anyone has done this and how. Thanks in advance. Sent from my iPhone...

    Northwest Arkansas, Easter Oklahoma, Southwest Missouri Saddle Hunters

    Yeah, our bow season in Arkansas ends the last day of February. I think could shoot for sometime in March. It would let us do some post season scouting, share gear knowledge and techniques, and get out before the heat and bugs come back. As of now if I get an opportunity to have free time I want...

    Team 3 - Official Team Thread

    Getting out this evening. It’s been a struggle the last few years to put much effort into it. My wife and I have 2.5 year old twins. I am planning on hunting some hardwoods that I know deer bed down in and move through. Going to try and sneak in the middle of the day and get set up. I usually...

    Merlin just came in

    I ordered the Flex last week. Ready to try it. I guess it’s similar, just not mesh? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Pull Rope for rappelling?

    I would definitely pick up something stronger. Something without stretch. Not sure the cost of Amsteel. I got off pretty cheaply at my local climbing shop. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
