Just looking for suggestion from others. I am using a web, but I am sure all tips would apply.
Thanks

Just got back from my 1st saddle hunt with a gun. I made a couple stalk hunts last year with a gun and that was the 1st gun hunts in a long time. I was completely lost in the saddle with my gun. I’ve only trad bow hunted from a saddle until today. I use my grapple hook to hook my bow string and pull it up. Wasn’t sure what to do with the gun. Was scared I wasn’t gonna get a good hook on the strap so I hooked the trigger guard with the grapple hook. It worked fine but not sure I’ll be able to see the trigger guard in the morning darkness. I didn’t know where to hang it because I usually hang my bow on the tag end knot of my top tether loop. Lucky I had a branch.
Storm was coming in. Windy and heard a deer. Grabbed my gun but couldn’t find it. Then seen a squirrel so figured that was the noise. Couple minutes later I see the deer at 30 yards walking past me. It was thick but I don’t know how she got there without me seeing her. Her and the squirrel double teamed me. I’m glad it wasn’t a nice buck. Felt like suck a dummy!
Just tie a regular rope to pull it up. Or the other end of your grapple.
