    Leaning trees

    I have to add.. .I had great success this year with mild leaners on high side. Had long hunts where I positioned cushy Fanatic pack straight in front of me at thigh level, then adjusted Cruzr saddle so I could sit more and just rest and straddle into the pack. Knees bent on either side of tree...

    Mountain Bike for Access?

    No it’s not fat tire. But all roads and trails are hard pack or gravel etc I’m staying out the mud and use my boats instead if wet. I had a fat Mongoose for a while fun ride but this giant rolls and coasts so much easier Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    St Vincent Island

    1st yr we camped on mainland and kayaked over daily. Crossing solo at dark in fog was interesting. Next yr we hired ferry and camped on north side. I had my bike which cut walking downtime. Sambar hunt we hired delivery to south end. Bike again and I almost died riding the beach back after 1st...

    St Vincent Island

    Great pics! Makes me smile... some years back did the WT hunts twice and Sambar once, all with tradbows. Killed deer and pigs, and saw a sambar up close during the WT hunt. Surely would like to go back one day, kept thinking the hurricanes ran over the island a few times since then and maybe...

    Mountain Bike for Access?

    I've peddled a LOT this year, and it def helped many times without the long walks that take too much time. Almost certainly going to kit out my Giant Sedona hardtail very soon with at least 750w Bafang middrive system. Will pull a 14# Sherpa trailer when needed. At 64 still in good shape, but...

    External battery suggestions?

    I've been dealing with this myself. Struggling to keep phone, ipad, cameras, etc all charged up quicker. My small camper has a 12v battery and I could rig up some extra wiring and ports, but this last weekend rather than spend more money (after $$$$ saddle gear lol) with another jump box or...

    LWCG net seat options or mod?

    Would like to ask if anyone has seen a net seat option or mod for a LWCG .5 ? I've bought and sold a .5 already, just can't handle the flat seats anymore, only do sling type seats now. I did like the stand very much otherwise. Seems like I saw someone on the web doing this mod in the last few...

    When to Retire Ropes

    Some years ago when HSS lifelines where all the rage, I took one down from a preset to pull with ATV and haul a 200#+ hog out of a deep steep creek where it died. Backed up to edge, and hit the throttle hard wfo in 4wd low/locked and drug it out with all wheels spinning mud flying. All done...

    What’s everyone taking to the woods this year?

    Same as last year....Stalker Stickbow Apex ILF custom 42@28.. very much enjoying the lightweight saddle world and trad bows as I approach old fart status lol.

    LWCG 0.5 Full Season Review

    One stick setup inside bag? What’s the total weight in pic? And what’s your deceased deer removal method lol ? I’ve got a fan pack on the way, this time of yr quiet climbs and gear are paramount. My other two good packs make too much noise. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Nice little 8pt that was very personally rewarding to locate, setup, heart shot, and pack out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Stands, platforms etc.

    I usually am hunting tight quarters in thick woods with tradbows, so the transition from lightweight stands like my LW climber, M7, WindWalker, .5LWCG lately, have all been overruled for the quietness that 4 Shikar sticks and versa aider and saddle have provided this season. The stands always...

    THP "The Hunting Public" appreciation thread

    As a longtime boat owner of many small outboard types, it kills me when I see Ted driving a tiller from the wrong side :tearsofjoy::cool:

    Air rifle recommendation

    Airguns..great fun indeed. I played around with a few.. a nice Diana heavy springer .17 that I had sent off to a master tuner. The heavy powered springers can hard to shoot very well, I never settled in. Then later got a Ben Marauder PCP .17 that was fun to roam around with with repeated shots...

    LWCG 0.5 Full Season Review

    same here. I have a .5 and rebought another new M7 after I sold my old one weeks ago. If I could marry a smaller M7 type seat onto the .5 don't know why they don't do something like that.

    New Hunting Beast Hang On

    Haven't finished reading all yet, but spot on here. Dangit I don't know why they can't come up with an M7 type seat instead. Seems like that would be a slam dunk. Love my .5 LWCG but that *&^% seat. One of my old cheap lock-ons I bent a piece of EMT, bolted it on in place of the seat, hung a...

    Loc-On Refurbish Project

    I usually use some type of extra pad on top the seat anyway, to get just a little tiny bit of height for my 6ft frame. I'm almost tempted at times to re-engineer a bigger type of sling seat like an M7 or such, maybe not quite so big. If I was an aluminum welder I would have done it already haha.
