I've been thinking of getting one but just don't want to spend the money on it right now. Besides it would be a minimum of 3 months of research before I could buy one.

I hate pony size bottles and the stores that sell them. Every once in a while you get home and realize you’ve been bamboozled yet again. Waking up on a couch full of midget sized bottles is very disorienting.

I used to do that in my younger years. Now that I'm older I realize the "wisdom in but once cry once." That's why I'm carrying 10x50 Vortex razor Hds for my elk trip next year.

That's also why I bought a Juki to see my own saddles and play with my designs. I have a lot of parts saddles now though

I imagine less disorienting than waking up on a couch full of bottle sized midgets, wouldn’t you agree?

Great point, but the trip getting to that scenario is something my younger self would have enjoyed.

Where the skys are so blue!
I hadn't realized there was this much bitterness and frustration out there. Why don't you fellas get a hobby??? :grimacing:
Aggravation is only bitterness when you don't air it out, and it's only frustration when you can't do anything about it and you think ya can. In this case, we know we can't change it but by jingle jam we gonna air it out! ;)

I read something on another forum the other day that said "I think saddle hunters are more concerned with playing with their gear than hunting". I think that is an unfair generalization and I hate it.
I hate the GAMECHANGING facebook groups where guys spend all summer bragging about how awesome their new saddle gear is (and how the one saddle they have tried is the best), and then after like 2 hunts sell it all off for a treestand.

Hunt however you like (as long as it respects the resource, others around you, and local laws and customs)...but let's be realistic.
