Illinois - but Hunt in Indiana Usually
I have been giving boxing lessons to a dude at work for the past 3 months ($25 per session), but I told him don't pay me, just get me a gift card. I received a $350 gift card to Tethrd Nation today and I purchased the Mantis and a few other items, baby!

2019 will hopefully be part XII of my deer killing spree. I am super excited. I have been a Summit Treestand guy and even though it was a great concept and invention back in 2000-2010, its not worth the effort, IMO.

I had 3 summit treestands stolen - two out in the woods and one from the bed of my truck, recovered 1 of them. They are heavy and impossible to carry back with a deer. So, I found you folks about 3 months ago and have watched likely 300 hours of videos on saddle hunting, rope tying, prusik knots, and the like.

Thanks everyone for providing great info and support. I will have lots of questions in about 6-10 weeks after I get it and practice for a bit. In February and March I'll have another gift card for the platform. Even though it SEEMS like its free, I'm working for it. Holding boxing mitts for a 270lb bearded dude is heck on your arms and shoulders.. but its worth it.

Welcome aboard.

That is being creative to make some cash. Where did you learn to box?

I had several very good boxing teachers and I competed in kickboxing and boxing beginning in 1990 for about three years and then again for a few years in 2009 till about 2012. I taught boxing for about five years and owned a small gym here in Chicago ( side hustle turned into 12 hour days).. haha
 
It is amazing the speed of some boxers. I sparred with a guy that was crazy fast, I couldn't touch him. I faked a right at his head and threw a low body shot with my left...cutting his eyebrow. What the heck? Ya he was that fast, or I was that slow. Lol

I learned to box from Dad at a young age. Just in the back yard, he had learned from his Dad. Both were accomplished boxers in there own right. I went to a military college and boxed for the school team my Sr. Year. Best shape of my life.
