Saddle Wubbie | Custom Gear Modifica

The "Wubbie" originated as a military term for a quilted poncho liner. It soon became term associated to anything that brought comfort, allowing humans to embrace the suck just that much less uncomfortably.Introducing the Saddle Wubbie!NO...THIS IS NOT A SADDLE. IF YOU TRY TO USE IT AS A SADDLE...

MGO review of the fix….His straps are already fraying. I don’t understand why they cant get the edges figured out.

They could figure it out, it’s quite simple, but would cost them more to produce. It’s not like people have stopped buying their products because of the edges. I’m not trying to bash them just stating a fact.

They have outsourced the labor for smoothing out the edges to you. You are a skilled laborer… and you are free. I think Dan does the same for the assembly of his sticks.

Not saying it’s right, but I do believe in both cases it is a calculated decision.

Idk, the edges are not sharp at all on mine. Maybe a combo of the finish having some texture (whereas anodized tube is very smooth), the geometry of the button (not a round shape) and him jumping up and down on his platform causing a bit of a sawing motion. Haven't had enough time on mine to give an evaluation. But, the edges are nicely rounded over on mine even in the button nook.

That's not the case here. Not saying you will or will not experience fraying, but your assertion is not correct. Their finish here is very nice on the post, so it's maybe a combination of factors if it is the case. Maybe more field testing would have helped; in that respect, they are no different than about everyone in the industry.

I love sling packs. My v3 outlaw holds a predator like it was designed for that purpose, AND it carries 3 hawks comfortably

this sling doesn’t look rigid enough to carry sticks and it doesn’t have the outside strap that the outlaw has.

but it still looks intriguing. Sling packs rock.
 
Wasn’t someone making an updated version of the old game plan gear leach pack??

Wait.... So is this like adding an insulated small dray to your saddle?
 
Genesis 3D came out with a new bow holder. I didn’t like the lwcg holder but you can adjust the tilt on this one. Worth a try.

Yeah, that thing looks awesome. Fully adjustable and swings out of the way when in transit; I’d be buying one if I used a treestand!

I wish XOP would. I believe I’ve even emailed them regarding it. Since they are Game Plan now. I like the Striker (Full Rut) pack. It’s a well thought out pack IMO and is reasonably priced. I think the Gear Leech pack would be a popular item. They also had a Cameraman pack that self filmers would probably like.
