Cruzr XC Saddle - Didn't do any all day hunts, but it was perfectly comfortable during my typical 4-5 hour hunts. Very easy to get on and off, and also comfortable wearing it in and out of the woods. Big step up in saddle from the previous season. Will defintely be using it next year as well. Can't see any reason to change as of right now, but I do like to experiment.
Sterling HTP Ropes - Yup, just simple ropes are on the like list. And they're not the sexy, overpriced, hard to find, must-have, flavor-of-the-month ropes. Used both 9mm and 10mm for lineman's and static tethers (not rappelling, I use dynamic rope for that). HTP is among the cheapest and most available climbing rope available, and I actually found myself leaving all of the sexy ropes in the bin and just using the HTP. Very durable and high quality. Will very likely be using HTP exclusively going forward for my static rope needs, and largely ignoring the glamorous ropes.
TX5 pouches - Had a couple of these laying around for awhile but they didn't see any use until the middle of this season simply because I had no idea they would be better than the Tethrd pouches I have been using. I figured a pouch was a pouch. The HUGE difference between the two: The TX5 pouches actually stay open when you want them to so you can shove your ropes and gear into them with one hand, whereas the Tethrd pouches have that really thin fabric at the top and no support band so the top just flops over when you try to shove stuff in there and you end up needing two hands and having to awkwardly reach around your body to hold the pouch open half the time. Didn't realize what I was missing with the TX5s!
Ropeman 1's - Been using these for two seasons now both on lineman's and my tether when using a static rig. I've obsessively tried to find better methods over these two seasons and have yet to do so. I keep going back to the ropemans. I'll take the hint now after two years and just accept that these are my kit of choice for lineman's, and tether when using a static rope and not rappelling.

There was really nothing that needed to end up in the trash can, so I'll leave it at that.
