    Latitude Outdoors Method Saddle

    It may happen, I've got an idea that could equal the same amount of comfort without going that route though- I'd emailed Tethrd about it a few weeks ago and never got a response, maybe @DanO or someone else (with talent for these things, which I don't have) would be interested in trying to piece...

    Latitude Outdoors Method Saddle

    Great looking saddle, if that had been out a few months ago I may not own a Phantom now

    "Sapphire" insert

    Pictures sold me, I'll order a Sapphire insert as soon as I get my arrows built for the season and confirm the speed again. Thanks for posting those, looks like a great improvement

    What did you buy today?

    Batteries for my trail cameras from Amazon, and more Oplux and TRC from EWO for a tether

    HuntStand vx OnX

    I have the free version of Huntstand and the paid version of OnX, and much prefer OnX for the mapping and use it the most. That being said, I do like the Current Hunt Area piece of Huntstand, and wish OnX offered something similar so that you're not having to look for waypoints from months ago...

    2020-21 Goals

    I've got a few this year, but with a newborn at home, I'm not sure what my time in the woods will look like. 1. Kill another decent (3+ year old) buck with my bow 2. Kill from my new saddle (deer, hog, coyote, etc.) 3. Make my first bow kill from the ground (deer, hog, coyote, etc.) 4. Hunt...

    Rappelling with Phantom

    Hey guys, following up here- took a few minute break from work and tried it with the longer bridge and it helped a lot with the slipping, however I do still get some pull to the right side (where my backup hitch is). I'm going to keep playing with it, it sounds like there may be too much tension...

    Rappelling with Phantom

    I'll get a picture tomorrow, I did end up with the bridge tightened as much as I could after having the issue, but was still starting with it pretty short to begin with- I'm guessing that is likely the issue since I have no problems with it locking in/staying tight when using it in a static position

    Rappelling with Phantom

    Evening everybody, I received my Oplux from EWO today and am running a 32ft piece for rappelling. I'm using a Tethrd Phantom this year, and and encountered something I didn't expect, being new to both this saddle and rappelling as a whole- the UtiliBridge loosened each time when running a...

    The Wraptor

    I definitely agree, and I wouldn't mind getting a thread injector down the road to play with making another myself and to be able to customize add-ons as needed; if I'd been able to make it similar to the Recon Sling by adding the molle loops and figuring out a better waist belt, and felt great...

    The Wraptor

    Finally making it back to this thread after building my own version of the Wraptor last year for an update. First hunt from the saddle last season was a memorable one, I killed a mature 7pt that required a shot directly behind me with a bow- only my second mature buck with a bow, and it was an...

    How to modify your Hawk Helium climbing sticks - A step by step guide for dummies (aka me)

    Thanks for this, going to give it a shot soon with my spare stick and see how it goes. As for the aider, is it moveable or multi-step? Looking forward to the video on that as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
