New to hunting and saddle hunting in general!
Did very little hunting with my dad in high school up in PA but he did all the leg work. Hunting my first season here in Florida from the ground then knew a few weeks in that I’m hooked so told the wife I wanted a saddle and low and behold it was here for Xmas along with sticks from my dad!
Was a weird feeling being suspended from the tree the first time and I’m slowly working my way to being comfortable up in the tree. I’m starting with one stick and being 6-7ft up in the tree and will work my way to being up 20+ft by next season I hope.
First sit in the woods and on the way to my spot I lost my hys strap so I didn’t have anything to hang my gun or backpack/water from. Have one more sit before the end of deer season so I’ll see how that one goes.
