I just used a cheap rifle sling and hook both ends to my tether biner. They already have adjustment on one end. You'll never go w/out it.Good to know. I’m finding the same thing. I’ll try a back band

Sounds like you need to maybe slide your saddle up a bit to get better lower back support. I find when it rides to low it’s hard to get comfortable. Keep adjusting till it’s right. Reducing back pain is my primary reason for hunting in a saddle. With my Kestrel I hardly ever use my back band especially when leaning and can go all day without. When sitting it becomes much more important especially for sits longer than 4-5 hours. Seems to me I need my back band much more with my Mantis. Not quite sure why the difference but suspect it’s how low or high I wear it. Need to experiment with it more. Only have 3 hunts out of it so far.Love my saddle but after 3 hours lower back gets score. Anyone think the back band would help?

Id rather forget my linesman belt than my back band. I'm still tweeking it but today i made a head/neck band out of one of me sons fleece hoodies he grew out of for a pillow. Kinda like a fleece saddle you put on your head and it supports your neck.........Zzzzz
