I was looking around for some information and found this exchange between two people on a forum way back in 2006! Funny how we are still asking the same questions today.

what that Tree Saddle does or how it does it.
It's like a bosun's chair, or a swing for you in-landers.
You sit in it and it can swing around the tree, allowing you to easily shoot in any direction. You go up the tree with screw-in steps. I'll usually put one in each side of the tree at the level that I stand/sit. The swing rigs to the tree above your head and you sit in it. It's amazingly comfortable and total weight, with steps, is around 6lbs. I can be up a tree in 5 minutes, without making as much noise as a climber. The whole rig stows in a large fanny pack, so it's much easier to tote, too.

Swampdog, that thing really is interesting. But is it REALLY comfortable for a long time, to have to hold yourself out from the tree with your legs? Or do you just hang there with legs dangling?
