I've been studying everyones experience and your systems as vetran tree hunters, and see there are many variables to consider. And at this point want to go this route in hunting, but I want to do it right the first time and not waste money.
I do believe also at this point i'm more concerned to have a safe system like the Kestrel rather then the Sit Drag and other system being mentioned. I say safe as I have no experience in this method, and the Kestrel is a commercially available product that meets the safety requirements (however lame they may be).
So with that in mind for those that have the Kestrel or just experience in the systems would you buy the kit or just the saddle and assemble the rest (Tether, LB, Bridge) using other components?
And to help me and other new members (seems more and more everyday new ones are signing up) would you please list those different components like in an aftermarket kit.
Example: Tether rope/strap brand and why, LB x brand and why, Bridge etc...
So a kit format would look like this:
Saddle: Kestrel (or other brand)
Tether: This rope with this component (please state why)
Bridge: This rope and component (please state why)
LB: This rope and component (please state why)
etc...Make sense?
And other components that make the experience safer/better/more efficient , thanks ahead of time, this would be a big help.
