Pillows my braddah.... pillows....
i use a cheap pair from home depot. just got the trophyline ones too. pros n cons to each but for an all day sit the cheap ones. the trophlylines kill my knees after about 5 min. theyre not soft enough. they are quiet and grab the tree though. i might put some memory foam on the inside and see if that helps.
the cheapo ones are awesome on my knees i can sit all day n not feel a thing. but they have hard plastic on the front and are harder to grab the tree and can be loud on the bark n bumping things... my .02
Why didn't you put them at face level then??Its like a boob on my knees.
I use Arc’s and found if I place them over my base layer and under my outer layers, they work much better and are extremely quite going up the tree vs strapping them to the outside of the leg pants. I do all day sits no problem with them.

Yeah I thought the same thing. My $5 dollar knee pads are so comfortable and the Trophyline pads destroy my knees. Do you think there is a break in period?i use a cheap pair from home depot. just got the trophyline ones too. pros n cons to each but for an all day sit the cheap ones. the trophlylines kill my knees after about 5 min. theyre not soft enough. they are quiet and grab the tree though. i might put some memory foam on the inside and see if that helps.

so ive been using the trophyline ones for about 15 hunts now. they did need a break in period, i switched because my $5 ones wore out. I actually strap a 1.5" thick therma seat onto the tree to give my knees a little more cushion and see if the pads keep getting softer. so far... the biggest con to the trophyline pads is the straps coming loose. They will never stay tight and keep my pads where i need them. i will say they are extremely quiet and well built and quick to put on.Yeah I thought the same thing.

They look pretty comfortable. What county from SEPA you from?I bought these today at Lowes. They were on clearance for $15. I have been using the $5 volleyball knee pads from Walmart
Montgomery. This was in the Hatfield Lowes. These were the only clearance pair on the shelf. The price is still $30 on the website so I assume this was an individual store only clearance. Prices vary from Lowes store to Lowes store.They look pretty comfortable. What county from SEPA you from?
I’m Bucks, I’ll have to check my Lowe’s here. If not I’ll check out the Hatfield one. ThanksMontgomery. This was in the Hatfield Lowes. These were the only clearance pair on the shelf.

Go to Lowes.com and find the item and then change the store. The price will change if it is local clearance. I have found some 90% off at Montgomeryville that I was surprised that were still full price at Hatfield.I’m Bucks, I’ll have to check my Lowe’s here. If not I’ll check out the Hatfield one. Thanks
Thanks for the info, maybe I’ll give it a try one day.Go to Lowes.com and find the item and then change the store. The price will change if it is local clearance. I have found some 90% off at Montgomeryville that I was surprised that were still full price at Hatfield.
Edit: I just checked. Warrington has 25 available for $15 each.
It sounds like you are close to me. I have only been hunting at Nockamixon. If you want to try SRT climbing, we could meet somewhere.
