Saddle recommendations

Latitude Saddles are made in the US. The method 2 is a good option.

I started out my saddle adventure last season with the Latitude Method 2. I did the Camp Ripley bow hunt in Minnesota. I was a little worried I'd have trouble hanging all day, but I was very comfortable. Maybe even more so then in a compact hang-on stand.

I can't compare to some of the other popular saddles, but this one left fairly little to be desired. The only real problem I had was it pushing down off my butt while I was walking because my pack overlapped a bit. I'm looking for a different pack which may help with that.

I carry four Helium full length climbing sticks because I'm not young and rubbery enough to deal with aider loops after getting chilly and stiff all day.

I am in my early 50s, 185 lb, and with no serious physical ailments.

Another in the Cruzr XC camp. First season hunting with a saddle.

Saddles are like packs to me, no reason to buy something not made in the USA. There are so many good options and companies. I had a CRUZR XC which was awesome but I was using a back band on longer sits so I decided to get a two panel.

I have a buzzard roost now and I’m very pleased with it. I live close to where they are made and it felt good to send my money their way.
