Well I finally pulled the trigger and bought myself the Aero hunter evolution - I had been back and forth between this, Guidos Web, or a Lone Wolf climber. The climber is tried and true- but I couldnt shake the desire to try out the saddle. I should get it next week - just in time for bow season!
Anyways, here's my plan of action for entry into the tree:
Basically you use two tree straps- one is for the harness and one has a foot loop. You climb the tree just as you would with a climber- when your weight is on the 'footloop tree strap', you raise the 'harness tree strap'. Then you put your weight onto the 'harness tree strap' and raise the 'foot loop tree strap'...you continue this pattern until you get to your desired height.
Has anyone else tried this method? I've done a lot of research and haven't come across this method - is there a reason why? I cant believe that I'm the first person to think of this...
