Looking to buy my first saddle. I am 6'1", 220 lbs and 36" waist size. Looking for something under $150. My brother got lucky on a Mantis that was $100 but was an XL and I needed a large. Hopefully someone had something they aren't using laying around that I could buy.
 
Might should check out the Treehopper Recon. You can get one new for $149.99 and they are well-liked.
 
I have looked at those but I have seen a few issues with them pointed out I am not sure if want to deal with.
 
You need to buy that Latitude Classic from @gcr0003 way better than the mantis in comfort and honestly one of the most comfortable saddles ive owned
 
This might be of some use about how to make a saddle smaller.

Tucking my Aero Evolution Saddle

I bought this saddle last year from a member here. It was a large but I figured it would be more comfortable. The first time I hunted with it the aluminum cat paws dug into my ribs and caused pain. Cat paws are the aluminum attachment poins fastened to the bridge, waist belt and leg straps...

I’m size 36 and the classic fits great. It’s light weight like the mantis but it’s actually really comfortable. I’m just selling it another saddle and keeping whichever doesn’t sell. The classic is also a fair priced saddle. A little over you budget but not by much. I’d let you have it for $169 TYD
 
I have posted that I would like to see pics of gcr's Classic but no pics have been posted as of yet
 
Thanks for the help. I got a good deal on a Trophyline Ambush Lite.
