Some interesting harnesses

I'm not really a harness/saddle hunter. It sure interests me. I'm old, fat and out of shape or I might be in your ranks.

I try to implement what I have learned here into my climbing stand hunts.

I'm always looking at different rigs and saddles just to see what's out there and maybe one of these days I'll lose a few pounds and exercise a bit more.............

Until then I just watch with interest from the sidelines. I had a GW, but didn't care for it. Never really gave it a chance probably. I sold it here a year or so back.

But, finally to the point. I was looking at ebay for different RCH, just out of curiosity and stumbled across some Fusion made harness.

They make some for bungy jumping, gymnastics, and trampoline. Not really suggesting any of these for saddle use, but they have a couple that might interest the Guidos, JX3(?) type of guys. Check these out. Looks like the would be real comfortable although bundle-some.

That one on amazon would probably be pretty comfy if you put a bridge on it. It looks super bulky compared to the Mantis/Kite/Kestrel. I doubt it would be near as comfortable as the JX3 or Guidos.
 
I would like to try that one from amazon, but a little pricey for me.
 
The second one looks like the Aero hunter Evo. Either way they both seem to be working backwards in the evolution of saddles used for hunting. If you're not using a rigid seat - less is more in the saddle world. Angles of connections and dimensions in relation to pressure points are all that matter. And every individual's body shape/tolerance for pressure will vary.

They had an down scale from the first one for $69. Must have copied the wrong one. Can't seem to find it any more.

Here's more of a minimalist:https://www.ebay.com/p/Fusion-Tacti...-23kn-Large-Green/2204578913?iid=283272272082
