I'm looking to try saddle hunting this year, so was going to order the Sit and Drag for a lower cost entry. I already have a rock climb harness and the HSS rope style tree strap that I can use as the tree tether, and a bunch of old strap on steps I could make into a ring of steps for the platform.
That said, Im trying to assemble all I need to buy - which is starting to add up a little more then I thought it would however $70 of it is for a couple Ropeman's which are optional as I could just do prussics. Does this look like a reasonable starting list to get into saddle hunting?
Below prices are from Amazon
For linemans belt:
20' 8mm climbing rope(wont use this much obviously)- $15
Ropeman 1- $35
Carabiner x 2- $10 ea
Sit and Drag- $35
10'- 1" webbing(for bridge and sewing to saddle for loops, etc)- $9
Ropeman 1- $35(this is to put onto my existing HSS rope tether strap to tied into the RC harness)
Dump Pouch x 2- $7 ea
Total: $154.00
