Curious how everyone heard about saddle hunting. For me, it was word of mouth.
I was at the local sporting goods store (Cabin Fever in Victoria, MN - awesome shop) and was waiting for the owner to talk to him about X-stands that just came out as they were suppose to be 10 pounds or so...started chatting with the guy next to me and he said "forget the climber, just get a Guido's Web and be done with it - all my lone wolf's are collecting dust".
So I looked up Guido's Web and made the plunge.
Converted my cousin the following year when loggers started logging right by his ladder stand so we headed to public land and I let him use my GW - as much as he didn't want to use it I kinda forced it on him. 15 minutes in the tree he was on the phone with Butch to place an order lol.
That was 3 years ago...I'm now a proud Kestrel owner!
I wish I could hunt down the guy that told me about the GW and thank him.
