New saddle hunter at 60 year old

I’m still collecting gear, today I received a double step for my lone wolf sticks and some versa straps from EWO. If these work well I’ll order some more.
 
Today I tried a back belt on my hunt. It helps spread the weight even more and helps with comfort. I also used my new solo scout and was in the tree 3.5 hrs. I can’t say it was really comfortable but it is doable so I will keep the solo scout for short hunts and be buying a predator or mission for longer hunts.
Welcome, I'm 72 & don't post much. When I use my solo scout I hang a step on another strap slightly above @ 3 o'clock. Seems to be more comfortable when you can shift a bit. Back belts are a must when sit.
