I’m the FNG and here is my question that I’m sure has been beat to death but here we go, I’ve just got into the saddle game and have everything I need except a platform. I’m curious to hear the more seasoned saddle hunters take on the different platforms on the market and possibly some recommendations.

Any help will be greatly appreciated guys!
 
I’ve read a few comments about the Gen 1 not being manufactured correctly and breaking while under a load. Has this been safely resolved and how do you know if it’s a Gen 1 or a later version?


Gen 2 has more bars in the very back - very easy to see. You cant buy a gen I today. I still use the heck out of my gen I but also have 2 Gen IIs

I got rid of all mine except the Assassin. It's the only one I will use at all.
You are really going to have to make that decision your self.
 
Playing with every conceivable method I’ve always come back to my predator platform with that being said I think I’m on way back to a loc on and sticks not sure the saddle and me are meant to be. Great method of hunting but maybe not for me
 
I have built numerous diy platforms and thought they were all great . . . until I tried a ROS.
