Buying a new saddle

I have a original Trophy Line. I’m going to purchase a JX3 this year. I got into saddle hunting because of a bad back and was looking for a way to be able to sit longer on stand. There’s a lot of great saddles out there now. It all depends on your needs. I’m willing to take the extra weight for more comfort in my situation.

If they use the buckles from the kestrel on a kite, I’d go that route myself too.
Call them and tell them what you want . I think it cost an extra 20 or 25 bucks can't remember. I asked them about it a few months ago and they should take care of you.

That’s awesome. Looks like I may be spending some money :sweatsmile:
 
Im holding out to see what AH comes out with next. I’ve been more than happy with my Kestrel but I’ve been wanting to try a mesh saddle. Depending on what they announce I’ll probably end up getting a Kite with the Kestrel buckles. I’m admittedly an AeroHunter die hard.

I am content with DIY SitDrag. Nothing new in my future
I started with the SitDrag modded based upon some of @g2outdoors videos. I kinda miss it. I sold it and ended up in an Kestrel that I find isn’t much more comfortable than the SitDrag I had. Biggest difference for me is that I don’t need the RCH anymore. I can wear just the saddle.
 
I used to have an original Trophy Line, but currently l'm running the Kestrel and like it, however, I'm looking to purchase the Phantom and either sell one or keep both. I can use the backup one to help initiate others to saddle hunting.
 
I have a Kestrel and a Kite. I love these saddles. As I’ve said before I can’t see how you can improve the Kestrel. Having said that I will probably get another saddle this year, not sure which one. The Phantom sounds good!

So you prefer the Kestrel over the Kite?

Yes, the Kite seems a little deeper in the butt which is a little less comfortable to me but I like the mesh.
I had a Mantis but the Kestrel is the cats azz and very comfortable to me so I traded it to a friend.
