That’s gonna be a personal thing. They say the guidos web is the most comfortable but I never tried one. I like a more slim light saddle for packability. I’ve used an aero hunter evolution, Kestrel, and sitdrag and made all day hunts in each. If you take time to learn your saddle, bridge, and tether adjustments you can get comfortable in all of them. I’m trying the new tethrd mantis this year. I’m sold on the packability.

I’ve got a New Tribe Evolution in the classifieds you may want to check out. It comes with everything you need to get started including the back band. Very comfortable. It’s a good choice for sitting all day. It’s a little bulkier than newer models that are coming out but if you’re hunting close it’s not an issue. If you are interested I’ll make you a smokin deal.

You can’t go wrong with any of the newer saddles out there. Mantis or Keatrel. Shoot I would check out Charley’s evolution.

But the Guido Wb is supposed to be wonderful.

I think the mantis, though I haven’t hunted from it, looks to be more of a leaner style of saddle whereas the Kestrel has a deeper seat to it and looks to be more tailored to sitters.

They are both going to be awesome options.

I like my Kestrel! My only wish is that I would have waited for their new mesh saddle. It’s a little lighter and let’s your bottom breath more. I would imagine that might get cold hunting in the winter then also. My brother is going to put his order in for that one this month. I have no complaints with my saddle. I just got mine this spring and have been setting up and getting use to it and my new wild edge steps. Whatever you get practice, practice, practice so you know what your doing and your confident once you get 20+ feet in the tree.

I have both a Guido's web and a kestrel. The web is very comfortable for all day sits. My kestrel is also very comfortable. I am a sitter and the back band is awesome . The new saddles that our coming out all look great. You couldn't go wrong with either one of them.
