I was hoping to pick one of these up but they are sold out again. Any idea how long they usually take to get back in stock? Or if anyone has one and wants to take my money
Got mine today. Really like it but only have one complaint. Since it came with backpack straps I figured I would throw them and would be nice for climbing the tree. Wrong!! The hump in the casting really digs into your back. Not a real big deal for a few minutes but that would really suck for any extended time hiking in. Glad I’m packing on my Eberlestock instead. Climbing the tree I will just use the tree strap and carry over my shoulder and to my side/back like I did with my Predator. Little heavier but not a problem.
I watch a video on YouTube from some channel called Staggs in the Wild and I guess he has contact with Trophyline and they said they will be addressing that issue in the future. I guess they are working on getting rid of the hump. You should probably sell me yours so you don’t hurt your back lolGot mine today. Really like it but only have one complaint.

Nope. This weekend.I agree. The backpack straps aren’t impressive at all. I didn’t even put them on. It does pack well on the x2. You put it on a tree yet?
Try it out?Nope. This weekend.
Yes. It’s great. Little bulkier to pack but I agree the extra size and weight is a good tradeoff for comfort. One day I actually used it for a low hunt 3 feet off the ground without my saddle of course. Plenty roomy to turn around while standing on it. Nice little platform.Try it out?
