    Saddle Platform/Climber...Next Big Secret...?

    What brand and type of OCB are you using? I just bought a hand climber and need to do the mods. Any tips for a smooth running piece of equipment would be greatly appreciated!

    John Eberhart - Inquiry question on ScentLok and boots

    John, I am looking at buying some Scentlok gear for the late season in SW MI. I checked out the hydrotherm bibs and jacket today and they felt like I wouldn't need any other layers beyond a medium weight thermal underneath. Do you have any experience with this model? Would it be better to buy a...

    Knaider/Swaider made by Jacob Kraft

    I just received my knaider/swaider from Jacob Kraft. I gave him 2 measurements and he sent me a perfect fitting set. He was prompt, cooperative, and a pleasure to deal with. His product has been weight tested and is overbuilt for extra strength. I’m psyched to have another piece of saddle gear...

    Hello From Kalamazoo

    I’ve thought about hunting gamelands near my families farm on days when conditions aren’t perfect and I don’t want to add pressure to the farm. SW Michigan is a beautiful place to hunt whitetail!

    Wild edge rope sabotaged

    Did you raise or lower a saw while you were up in the tree?

    Wild edge rope sabotaged

    I wouldn’t discount the possibility of you accidentally partially cutting it prior to putting it up. A nick from a broad head or knife may not cause an immediate break but that one time you forget to check your equipment might be the moment it breaks. While I am confident there are members of...

    No zipper backpack??

    I’d like to see some more drawstring packs on the market. Ive gotten away with using zippers this long but I still cringe every time I have to use one in the field. I got rid of my climber so I didn’t have to deal with the tiny bit of noise it made, even though It was never really an issue. A...

    Layering paint and stencils

    Spray paint has a bit of a learning curve. I always test spray cardboard before every coat. That helps to remove any gunk in the cap and helps me to remember how light I have to spray to get a thin coat. Preparation and patience between coats is key. I’ve also learned how to vinyl wrap stocks...

    Layering paint and stencils

    Yeah. 2 coats for first layer then a very light single coat for other colors. 2 thick coats of matte enamel clear coat. It turned out nice and smooth with no runs. I’ve abused it on a dozen run and gun turkey hunts and the bumps have all been absorbed by the clear coat with minimal marks. That...

    I did a similar process for my turkey/backup deer gun.

    Opportunities near Charleston, SC

    I'm going to be living in Charleston, SC for the next 2 years and I won't have time to travel and hunt my usual properties. I see that there are some gamelands nearby and I'm hoping someone has some experience in that area and can point me in a good direction. I'm used to hunting in gamelands...

    Quitting Coffee for Season

    Hunt the wind, hunt high, and hunt thermals. Keep your gear scent free. If you do all that, I don’t think a little coffee in the morning will have that large of an impact. Wear a face mask and breathe through your nose. On really cold days I bring a small thermos of coffee to get me through the...

    Saddle Stealth

    It can be done but every little clank makes you rear end pucker up! The buck on the left in my profile pic was bedded about 50 yards a away when I climbed up in a modded summit viper sd. I had 30 doe grazing about 100 yards away on the other side of me. I set up in between and when he got up to...

    SaddlePalooza February 15-18, 2019 - OFFICIAL THREAD

    Sounds like a blast! I would like to come for the whole event but I’m pretty busy around then. I’ll get my ducks in a row in case things open up and I can make it for the whole event. I’ve really enjoyed the saddle hunting community thus far and it’d be nice to meet some of y’all in person.
