I just ordered my second aero hunter tree saddle , I never want to be without one. I wish we had these 25 years ago ! These saddles are incredibly comfortable.
You forgot to mention one tiny little detail. The weight of the sticks and the noise and work putting those up. Unless the trees already have them on before hand, which cancels the ability to go deep and set up wherever. I can’t imagine how fatigued your feet and ankles would get after a few hours in that thing.
Your weight is on the saddle. I was skeptical to. Used climbers for decades. Will never hunt without a saddle again. My whole setup is under 5 lbs. Saddle and one stick method. Can go as high as I want
I fell out of a tree while hunting as a teenager and messed up my knee as a result. This looks like a great product, but you'll never catch me up there, haha!
right i was like well shit im over 300 pounds and having to always buy more expensive stands this would be great....... then saw that price and was like never mind my climber is just fine and already paid for.
im make a DIY one for $60 (already have a rock climbing harness) . DIY sportsman has a good video on it. For $60 its worth a try, still need to make or buy a platform, probably another $85
