So I've been mostly lurking here for a few weeks and reading lots of threads. Today I finally pulled the trigger and ordered a Kestrel. I got the kit that comes with a lineman's belt and tree strap.

I hunt mostly Southern Indiana on private land and am tired of fighting heavy ladder stands in and out as I don't have an ATV. I am also tired of not being as mobile as I'd like if the deer were traveling different areas.

When I was researching possible options, I came across tree saddles and eventually found this site. Now just to wait for shipping, pick a climbing method, and practice a lot.

Welcome aboard.
I have been in my kestrel a bunch today. Using it to trim some trees. It is perfect for this with a few adjustments.
 
If only you knew what you have gotten yourself into. Not only will your time be spent hunting but also tinkering on new and better/worse ways to use your saddle setup. Welcome to the forum and the world of saddle hunting.
