I'm a closet treestand hunter that has been pondering saddles for a while and also come here for info on sticks and DIY.
I must admit, I've always assumed with a saddle that you just tied in once and did not have another safety harness.
Is that the case or do people often commonly wear another harness (rock climbing?) under the saddle and then tie the saddle and the harness off with separate lines? Doubling seems safer but could be a mess of rope that would get tangled as you moved in the tree to get in position for a shot.
I guess I didn't read enough specific posts closely enough to get this basic point.
Thanks - R
