    tethrd ess saddle review

    Nutterbuster, I am probably not going to use these. The panels stay together just fine with the belt snug. I don't walk in wearing my saddle. Thank you for pointing that out. Didn't seem right! Sent from my SM-G988U using Tapatalk

    tethrd ess saddle review

    Rings are not rubber coated. Maybe powder coated or painted.. They DO allow the ability to slide very easily. Which I like more than worrying about the clanking. They only clank when you are not wearing it. I am not certain I am using these clips correctly. If not, someone help me here.. Sent...

    tethrd ess saddle review

    The ESS is VERY GOOD quality! Mine came with 2 clips to hold the panels together. I just need to play with them to figure out how to separate the panels while hanging. First try was a bit tough. Just need some practice! Sent from my SM-G988U using Tapatalk

    tethrd ess saddle review

    You might be surprised! If you have the chance to sit in one, I recommend it! Again, I have only sat in Phantom. However, most of my hunts were full days.. 12-13 hours. Sent from my SM-G988U using Tapatalk

    How to rappel with MadRock Safeguard without dying?

    tethrd ess saddle review

    Well, first climb in the Tethrd ESS. Photo is a ground level hang. Had to see how it works. I sat in a Phantom last season. Many LONG sits (12-13 hours) and was bit sore initially. This 2 panel design has a good feel. Much different and will take some time to adjust. From the get-go, I will...

    How to rappel with MadRock Safeguard without dying?

    I started with an autoblock. It makes the descent extremely smooth as pressure on the block acts like the break in addition to the Safegaurd. I quickly realized I didn't need it during the season.

    Boots

    I have put less than 10 miles on my Gumleaf Royal Zip Boots but must say how comfortable they are. I wasn't sure when I first tried them on because I did not feel much cushion. However, after a few trips in the woods, and no aches or pains, I have high hopes..

    Primos Bullet Proof Trail Cams?

    I don't know about bulletproof... but this one did a good job of dodging every round the #$*^@#$^%#$ threw at it.. he got the card out.. probably after he ran out of bullets!! Public Land!! Gotta love it!! And look how many times he shot at the strap!! I could cut that with a spoon!!! I...

    Boots

    Got a pair of The Royal Zip! Very comfortable! The left boot zipper was a little stiff.. has loosened up... put 5 miles on them.. very satisfied! Tried One-Sticking today.. less of a challenge than I expected... Love these boots!

    Adding cam cleats to Sticks

    I am gonna try that with my 1/4" Amsteel and long end bury now. I am not using the Micro Cam Cleat. No other issues? Update: So I am new to this Amsteel game.. I could have left this a bit longer.. but at least I learned something. It works!
