Friend built it fir meWhat’s that platform? Thanks for the video.
He is gonna market it. Just not ready to yet. I was informed about the saddle becasue i needed one at that time so bad. Mark let me try the recon first. Thats a double panel saddle. I did a review on that to on the buck junkies channel.If he has no plans on marketing it maybe he should.
If he is absolutely certain he isn't maybe he should at least market the plans for us DIY'ers
Thank you sir.Solid write up, brother!
Gonna make me have to fire on oneThank you sir.
If yiu watch on my new channel and see the recon review. I had the same problem with the recon. Panel sag.I had this saddle, sat in it 4 times... Did not like it and returned back to Treehopper (Treehopper is awesome to work with!!). Found that there was too much top and bottom strap pressure, the mesh didnt really cup me to help with the support no matter how I adjusted. I preferred and still hunt out of their Recon saddle which I find extremely comfortable. The OP is correct, The Recon is tricky walking in with it on as the panel tends to drop, so I carry it into the woods now and couldn't be happier (with the Recon). For perspective, I've only owned the Phantom and Mantis which I've hunted out of for the past couple of years... so not a saddle expert by any means.
What video are you referring to? Can you link it? I tried inverting the panels but preferred the original panel configuration.First year saddle hunting for me and Recon is only one I have ever owned. I have zero problems with panel sag. I watched Robert loper's video and how he demonstrated panel sag, and I don't have that whatsoever. I tighten up the belt and it stays in place. However, I don't have any dump pouches and gear hanging off of it, but neither did Robert loper in his video. I also flipped the panels, which is what a lot of people do based on other threads/reviews of the Recon, and not sure if that makes a difference on panel sag or not. I also have a different body shape than Robert loper, being shaped more like a rail, and if anything, a little more butt/hips than belly, so maybe that helps as well. I guess the same as many other things as far as what works for one person may not work for another, and vice versa
I should mention that I didnt like the rope bridge that came with the Recon, switched it out with Notch Dryad 3/8". So smooth now.If yiu watch on my new channel and see the recon review. I had the same problem with the recon. Panel sag.
the ultimate wasdoung the same thing to me to til i messed with tether length and bridge length. Its pretty comfortable now.
i use a lwcg 1.0 stand to so i use both. Im not a saddle expert either lol.
i switch up in certain situations

Ive tried. A tethrd which i hated.Have you tried many other mesh saddles to see if this effect was specific to the design or type of mesh?

The Ultimate saddle was the first and only mesh pleated saddle I sat in, I'm thinking the expandable aspect of it had more to do with the discomfort than the material.Have you tried many other mesh saddles to see if this effect was specific to the design or type of mesh?
