I live near Milwaukee Wisconsin this was my first year of saddle hunting. If anyone would like to practice the one stick method, knaider and swaider and Cain method We steps. Send me a message. I know how to do one stick climbing method but i am not that proficient at it. If interested send me a message i will like to practice after bowhunting season. Only interested in mobile climbing methods thanks.

Ok let tell you MY situation i am ok at the stick climbing method not good at it takes me 30 minutes to climb between 20 and 25 feet that's really not that good, so i need get alot better at that (part of problem is that i have to get a better climbing stick aider).
I was not good at all at the knaider and swaider climbing method. It took me way to long. This spring I want try the Cain climbing method i think it is alot safer method compared the knaider and swaider climbing method. So those 3 climbing methods are my priority this spring.

February through April is time i try do my deer scouting and i have alot new land i want to scout thanks to onxmaps. The last two years its been hard for me to find to go scouting because of the weather and i have kid's. So it's very hard for me get the time. This spring I also to go fly fishing for steal head. I want get good at least 2 of those climbing methods first before i start expermting on other methods.

It doesn't make sense for me to start expermting with other climbing methods if i am not even good at the basics. But some is has a different mobile climbing method and is already good at it i am Willing to try.

Let me say this it one thing to practice in your back yard on a tree that is 90 degrees perpendicular to the ground with no branches that's the best case scenario. I hunt 100 percent public land and of land i hunt is really nasty that you need a
machete to walk through it. I believe you need practice tree that are difficult like slanted trees trees with branches trees with smooth bark big trees small tree's because often times those are the places deer feel more safer.
 
I am in Milwaukee area. I use stiks and platforms.
I have a Trophyline saddle and a Kestrel due in February, I also am expecting an ambush any day now. Hoping to have Beast stiks soon from January order.

I would be glad to meet you guys.
 
The more the merrier nothing really setup at this point in time. Hopefully we can do it spring or when the weather isn't that bad.
