Also by the way if a deer sees you moving or fidgeting, they will usually let you know lol
 
I have found that height is crucial if the tree you are hunting is bare, but if you can set up in a fork or crotch of a tree it gives you a little more concealment and opportunity to move without being busted
Good advice thank you
 
Just be sure when setting up in a fork you have enough room behind you to keep from scraping the tree behind you when you move deers got super dooper hearing you know
 
Try to practice drawing your bow when you are bored and try to work on being silent when there are no deer around. I always try to practice different shot scenarios before I have to. You will learn how to be quiet that way. Just look around first so you don’t spook anything

Well i cheat and use a crossbow but i still practice reaching for it and practice my shots.
 
I also have the same saddle and experience the hip pinch that you're speaking of, even with adjusting the tether length and trying to position the saddle lower on my butt. What I now do is carry in a sit drag as well and use that in addition to the saddle once I get up to hunting height. With the sit drag I position it much lower on my butt then I can with a saddle. When I try to position the saddle lower it does not come up my butt very well in acts as if I'm sitting on one piece of it still causing the hip pinch. Would the sit drag when I sit in it at a lower position the entire surface area of the sit drag cups my butt not causing any pressure points and this has relieved the hip pinch for me.
