    Gnarly trees - One Stick or Multiple Sticks

    Hunting public in Kansas. Screw in steps are legal, so I would imagine bolts are as well but I am not positive. I have seen a few trees with bolts in them.

    Gnarly trees - One Stick or Multiple Sticks

    Never used an aider but plan to implement one whether I go 1 stick or multiple mini sticks. Im usually 15 feet or so, not a ton of trees in my area that allow me to hunt much higher than that. So taht makes me think that 4 mini sticks and an aider would get me that high easily. One of the...

    Gnarly trees - One Stick or Multiple Sticks

    This. I am looking for what is most versatile. Love the one stick idea, but if I am going to be more limited with it I don’t know that I want to go that route.

    Gnarly trees - One Stick or Multiple Sticks

    Looking to upgrade from my Lone Wolf sticks. Thinking either 4 One Sticks, or making the jump to 1 sticking. If I’m trying to get into a gnarly tree, which option is better?

    LIVE from the saddle 2023

    It’s been a cluster of a morning. Started at a tree I’ve never sat, but scouted and marked on OnX two years ago. Get there this morning and the trunk is just barely too big for my straps. No big deal I’ll just double up and only use two sticks. I’ll be low but whatever. Get up, and my lone...

    Asio Gear or Sitka

    I have the Stratus jacket and bibs. I have had success with it properly layered down to the mid 20s. Now I run hot, so your mileage may vary. On the day I shot my buck last year it started at 25 and gradually warmed into the mid 30s with 10-15 mph winds. I shot him at 2:00 and was comfortable...

    Tethrd Gen 3 sticks……. Foot room discussion only.

    I was just about to start a thread with this very question. I wear a 12 so good to hear that most of you guys are having no issues.

    Oh yes I am hooked on the saddle!! It’s so much fun. Been hunting for about 20 years but just getting into the saddle game and hunting public since we moved to Kansas.

    Well I ended up being in the right spot. He walked right under my stand at 2:00 pm and gave me a 15 yard quartering away shot. My first Kansas buck, first buck on public land and first deer out of my saddle. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Western Kansas. This spot was on fire this time last year. We had a light snow yesterday and I saw a ton of tracks on my walk in. Had an encounter with the pictured buck in this spot last year but I didn’t have a buck tag. It’s 20° with a NW wind and I’m downwind of some doe bedding. Sent...

    Tethrd Skeletor Sticks

    I was thinking the same thing! Looks like you could but it might interfere with wrapping the rope around that part but not sure.
