Hey guys, definitely want to start saddle hunting. Read up on it years ago and let an old time talk me out of it, claimed it was too much movement, etc... well, I’m hunting a lot more open woods, state land, lots of Beast style scout hunt and the saddle seems to be the way to go instead of carrying a big piece of aluminum on my back for 4 miles at a clip. Cruising this forum the other day I can across the Latitude and it seems like a very sweet setup. I’m thinking this will be my first saddle.
Anyone have thoughts? You guys think the total package is worth it? I already run a rope man and static lineman’s rope and loop my own amsteel so I’m thinking just the saddle (no metal) and getting into it. Looping an amsteel tether is what I was thinking.

I think the latitude has a lot of adjustments that will help you find a sweet spot easier. I got a classic on order but [mention]Nutterbuster [/mention] will be bringing both latitude saddles on our hunt this weekend with [mention]gcr0003 [/mention] . We will give them a good shake down with our 3 different styles and body shapes if they come in in time.
 
Let us know what you guys think. You know we all love reviews.
I guess I should find some local guys to meet up with and see what tricks they’ve discovered or implemented.
