    Thoughts on Broadside Stands climbing platform???

    I do the same with my fanatic bibs on at base unzipped and yea tucking it is a pain trying to stand up on my platform and undoing my saddle very unsafe as well so I can wrap it around the jacket as if I was on the ground. When I use a climber I don’t get near as hot and it’s super easy to put a...

    Thoughts on Broadside Stands climbing platform???

    There is another one by pathfinder platforms looks a little more refined. I’m very interested in these I hope they can make it even better. The one thing I hate about saddle hunting is climbing I hate sticks and one stick and 2tc but that’s how it is and I deal with it cause I love the saddle…...

    getting back surgery

    I’ve had those same ones fused 20 years ago I will say I wish I waited and got a 2nd even a 3rd opinion. I would find out if they have an option to use the flexible rods. The other thing I will say is I know it is painful but if you can get by with non narcotic pain meds do it the back pain is...

    Late Season~Cold Weather Setup and Gear Hauling

    I’m gonna have to figure this second bridge thing out as I have a real hard time getting my fanatic jacket on up in the tree standing on the predator XL. Standing up on it I’m basically touching the tree almost and unless I unhook from the tree or take the saddle and drop it down I will sweat...

    What tree to pick?

    Here in NW Florida pine trees are everywhere climb them all the time but sap as others have said can be an issue. Another issue I hate is the bottoms of the tree to about 6-7 feet up will be black with soot from them burning the woods. And will get all over everything drives me nuts lol.. I’ve...

    Late Season~Cold Weather Setup and Gear Hauling

    I wanna see this as well, if I pack it all in and get dressed at tree I still sweat to death climbing up with 1 stick so probably gonna try 4 sticks or 3 with aiders cause I can’t put bibs on while hanging in the saddle. I can hardly get my jacket on it’s a pain to tuck it under the saddle...

    Need Some help! Cant stay comfortable

    Some of the highest pressure there is in north west Florida deer walk around looking up in the trees. I don’t do it when I see a deer or hear what I think can be a deer. Also I’m not swinging side to side like a crazy man it’s just a slight sway. Unless I see or hear something.. Sent from my...

    Need Some help! Cant stay comfortable

    I have to disagree with some of this when I’m up in the saddle I’m rocking back and fourth just like I’m in a rocking chair at home it’s just side to side and I’m a sitter 95% of the time and have zero problems with killing deer or being busted. I’m not saying I won’t be in the future I’m sure I...

    Cold weather hunts

    I’m new to it as well and I put my fanatic bibs on at the base of the tree as well, the problem for me is I sweat really bad climbing up using the 1 stick method I’m sure it’s cause I’m not in one Stick shape still. Even putting my jacket on at hunting height seems dangerous to me and scares me...

    First half season in saddle

    I have the method saddle 2 panel with the buckle. I use the one stick for climbing and rappel down, use the predator XL platform. My problem is I’m a sitter 98% of the time and my legs and feet keep going to sleep the last 3 sits. Some mornings I get it to where I’m so comfortable I could sit...
