Ground hunting pressured whitetails

I switched to a saddle this year

How do you like it, and what’s your climbing method?

How do you like it, and what’s your climbing method?

It's effective. Sort of comfy, sort of light weight, definitely low bulk. I have a 1 stick and double jrb cinch rope climbing system. It's safe, but very slow and harder than it seems like. I did a half dozen or so practice climbs, had my first hunt yesterday, and filled my buck tag with a nice one. Since I also got an elk, I was informed when I got home that my hunting season is now over. At this pace, it's gonna take years to make a real opinion on the saddle.

Nice! I got the Dryad and use it currently only instead of a "normal" safety harness. I had gone pretty far down the JRB system path, including buying all of the gear and practicing the knots, but I never went any further - so my climbing method remains on the shelf.

I've not killed anything yet, and I'm starting to get the side eye about my hunting season....
