EWO Order Must Haves?

Bratch said:
Thanks guys. I tried to respond to the questions I saw.



I was planning to just climb back down this season but I’ll spend some more time looking into rappelling. I’ve seen it discussed on here a little but haven’t gotten deep into researching it.



I was thinking the sewn buckle would be one less thing to fumble with and potentially drop. I’m completely green so this could be incorrect thinking.

I have a couple rolls of Stealth tape I’m planning to wrap the steps with.



Currently just planning on the linesman’s belt that comes with the JX3. Again open to ideas

Definitely don’t stealth strip squirrel steps, you’ll walk it off & it’s a sticky mess. Definitely some camoform, I always toss a few rolls in the cart when I order. You can get multiple seasons out of an application, no residue. Otherwise you got sticky windchimes

I’m looking to make my first order from EWO to start putting my kit together for next season. This will be my first season saddle hunting and I’m starting from scratch on gear. Here is my current cart:


1” Slotted squirrel steps 4x
RoS 7’ strap with sewn buckle
Small fleece pouch
Large fleece pouch
Doyle pouch
Gear Strap kit
Phone clamp
Aider (not sure which)

Am I missing any other must haves? I’d prefer to get it all in one big order.

I have Beast sticks and am leaning towards a JX3 but will probably pick up a soft saddle to try at some point too.

So, based of your possible budget, add a few locking carabiners and a Beal Jammy or two... Based off of personal experience, add one of everything and then double or triple it hahaha!!!

Have you tried using any kind of saddle yet?

I have not.

I ground hunted public last year. I had lots of areas I saw sign but had no suitable spot to ground hunt (tall grasses and brush) and wanted to get in the air. Like everything in my life I’m jumping in the deep end.

Order what ya can and don’t sweat the rest. You’ll most likely try different stuff out from time to time. Utilize the classifieds as they are a great way to sell and buy

Where do you call home? You may be able find some fellow saddle hunters on this forum that you could meet up with. Trying out a few different kinds of saddles would really help you get a head start. Find out what kind of saddle Suits you and go from there. The accessories are all contingent on your saddle type and climbing style.
