Hi guys. I'm in the GTA and am absolutely new to tree saddles. I've narrowed my choices down to the ambush lite. Of course any experienced opinions on attaining my first saddle are just as welcomed. Your help is much appreciated. Thanks.

most hunters' opinions would tell you to go a different route from my findings on here. The TL and the Mantis are the 2 most criticized saddles on here for comfort. buy once cry once, check out the "ultimate saddle review" by MADHUNTS...

Those pouches on the TL are nice though!

Yes! I have watched this video. It's great. I have broadened my options. I realized that comfort is king. I recently bought a phantom and a cruzr xc. Trying out the 2 to see what fits me best. Thanks for the reply.

Sounds like you made a great choice. My moneys on you choosing the cruzer xc. Phantom was hyped up mantis i.m.o.

Lol ya man. The consensus seems to be in favor of the xc. I just got my phantom today actually. It feels amazing walking around in it. Haven't got my tethers yet so waiting to see how it sits. Can't wait!
