    PLATFORM RECOMMENDATIONS

    I was always a ROS guy but just got back from AL and tried the Trophy Line Onyx and I was thoroughly impressed. Wouldn’t want it any smaller or bigger, super stable and comfortable on my feet all day. Was always a sitter using ROS but leaned all day with the Onyx and was so comfortable that I...

    Cruzr Archon or Latitude Outdoors Method 2?

    Thank you everyone for the info. Still on the fence. More research. Might wait till April West Palm has a big outdoor show and some of the vendors have saddles with a pole to try

    Cruzr Archon or Latitude Outdoors Method 2?

    I'm in the market for a new saddle and looking for some positives and negatives of each. I started several years ago with a Timberline which was super comfortable but I didn't like the metal buckles and no adjustable bridge. Got sucked into the Tethrd marketing black hole and got a Mantis which...

    Tethrd One Stick Gen 3's - Season review so far

    Spent a couple days reading the entire thread. I was going to invest in Beast sticks until I started reading this thread and I was sold on the One’s because of the weight until I got towards the end of the thread and saw guys having problems with them. If Thethrd didn’t have a reputation for...

    Webbing or amsteel?

    I have a Mantis and my Amsteel bridge is 30" long. I added a 1" webbing bridge 24" long and water knotted on each side. I left the Amsteel bridge in as a back up until I figure out the exact length I want my web bridge. 24" bridge is way more comfortable and maneuverable than the 30" Amsteel...

    Buying a Mantis tonight unless you talk me out of it...

    I have a Trophyline and a Mantis and I like them both. I do like the Mantis a little more. Comfortable and the adjustable leg straps keep it from sliding up when sitting for extended hunts. The only thing that I would change would be the bridge. Mine measures 30" and put a 1" climbing rated...

    Rope mod for Hawk Helium sticks

    I used 1/4” from Dutchware. I bought the black because the gray fades to almost a silver color. Black is like a dark gray color. I used a 9mm knitting needle and cut it on an angle as a fid. G2 Outdoors VIDEO: Super easy to do. I made mine 9’ long but that is a bit long. I do go up in some...

    Rope mod for Hawk Helium sticks

    I would use Amsteel Blue it’s much lighter and just as strong. Super easy to splice a loop in the end. Made a did out of a knitting needle bought at Wallyworld for $3. I made mine about 9’ long. Cut Amsteel to 10’ as the approximately 10-12” used for the loop. Google or search this site for...
