Tree Saddle....?
« on: September 03, 2018, 01:08:01 pm »
Im just wondering if anyone else is using one.  I made mine for a Sit drag and a rock harness.   Its incredibly comfortable and give nearly 360 degrees of shooting range.

BJ, it is like a boatswains chair hanging from a tree. If you are nor nautical you might have to look up boatswain's chair when you look up  tree saddle.  ;D

Thanks  Pat. I looked up Tree Saddle and got the gest of it. Still don't really understand the chair but I'll give your advice a try when I get a chance.

Just looked at a video of one of those. I was a lineman for a few years and the part of that that would bother me is the foot pegs. Even with steel shanked boots after a half hour or so my feet would be screaming at me. They felt like they were bent in half.

It would take a while for me to adjust to shooting that way from a tree saddle.I like standing on my feet really.

Id show pics but can never get them small enough to load.  i ended up buying a set of Bullman steps to use as a foot platform.   Ive spent several hours in it so far and REALLY like it over a stand
