Harness & Sit-drag question

[BarnabyHooge01]

Hello All - New-ish hunter here, and the last 3 seasons I've really only hunted out of ground blinds. Just before the end of last season I snagged a used climber & a brand new Muddy harness that I wore all of two times....

Of course now I've found saddles and I'm fairly confident this is the system for me. I've done some searching but didn't really find anything conclusive about whether or not using the Muddy harness that I just dropped nearly $90 on will work with a sit drag. I'd like to use that use that for at least a season before I spend a ton of money on one of the commercially available units. Anyone here use a Muddy harness with a sit drag?

Thanks!

I used the full body harness for one season that had lineman belt loops on it and it worked just fine. I'm just not a big personal fan of full-body harness just because of the shoulder straps digging to my neck a little bit so I moved on to a regular rock climbing harness. I just wrapped up the back strap. I used a sit drag with mine also and it was no problem. I moved on later in the year to a fleece drag which seemed to fit my body style just a little bit better.

And I forgot to mention, welcome from Barron county Wisconsin.

Welcome! Please check my thread before you feel safe in that harness. I used to think they were too, until the other night. Maybe the one you have is better made, but I doubt it.

Any body use just the sit drag conversion like I watched G2 outdoors video without rock climbing harness or safety harness

Hi everyone , I am a brand new member and have not saddle hunted yet . Looking to get started and I do have a sit and drag already . I watched about every you tube video out there , I watched a great one w G2 outdoors about converting sit drag, I think I would at least feel better w 1 in webbing to go around my legs loosely to insure that the sit drag does not slip up or down
Safe or not is the question, without rock climbing harness or safety harness

I don’t think anyone will tell you it’s safe. Some may tell you they do it and feel comfortable, but it’s their decision only. Try it at ground level. Try to fall out and make the determination for yourself. I wore a rock climbing harness with mine. For an extra $40 and not much more weight, I liked the peace of mind.

Try it at ground level and try to fall out.
It’s all up to you and the risk your willing to accept
