After months of debating which saddle I should go with (first time saddle using), it really all came down to how informative and thorough product demonstration. I watch tethrd just as much as I watch Latitude videos and I've made up my mine. Just ordered Latitude Method 2 saddle and kneel pads then for the platform and climbing sticks, I went with Tethrd. Can wait to get it going. Thanks for the amazing videos, it really helps a first timer like me to fully grasp the saddle concept as I've used self climber for many years. Thanks again !!!

Thank you Tank!

Great video Alex, just got my method 2 , up a tree this afternoon for the first time. Great quality rig,top notch! Also I wanted to mention this isn't just for kids, I'm 63 and it's easier than dealing with a cumbersome climber.

Excellent step by step video. I'm just getting into saddle hunting to be more mobile and this video was very informative.

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Nice video! Packed with lots of useful info!

[@joshlasure3384]

Great video packed with a lot of info I have not come across watching 100s of saddle videos.

[@bassamaticfpv4354]

Thanks for sharing I just got my method 2 last week. Still got some playing to do.

[@fulldrawcoffeecompany8906]

100% agree with the platform comment. That's why I chose a stick top platform. Great vid!

[@nemideergoon1844]

I built one for the top of a set of helium sticks then they came out with one lol.

Just getting into saddle hunting and bought the XL platform thinking it would be better for my size 13 boots. Once I began putting my pack together, I realized that the smaller platform is definitely a much better choice. The knee into the tree for stability for the shot is key. I feel much more stable and secure, shooting from a saddle than I ever felt in my Lone Wolf climber. Thanks for the video! 👍🏼

[@latitudeoutdoors]

The knee into the tree for shooting definitely helps! Thanks Scott!

Thank you for sharing this information.

Thank you, a great info video. Great job explaining the details and purpose. Keep up the great work.

[@redleg84]

Great video, my saddle arrives tomorrow

[@DavidGonzalez-ek3zh]

Great intell. I like your single panel and thinkin bout it. Been lw guy for 25 years!!!

[@galinswigart]

Awesome video.. I also have no clue what the purpose of a huge saddle platform is. I use the original Predator as well and have never once thought I wanted more space. Some platforms coming out recently are barely smaller than a small mobile treestand which completely defeats the purpose in my mind. It's a good things there are so many options though! Everyone has a preference.

[@latitudeoutdoors]

Thank you! And we agree, options are a good thing because everyone has different preferences. Ultimately we're all trying to be more efficient in the woods and whatever gear works best for each individual is the way to go!

[@timwaldroup9654]

Good information.. Thanks

[@mtnbkr1000]

Very informative video, thank you! Looking forward to using my method 2

[@thefallpodcast]

Awesome video guys.

[@clayloy7895]

So many of us asking what pack it is and no answer.

[@joshlasure3384]

When will the strap for the tree be available? Wanting to order it and the 2 straps to connect the top and bottom panels at the same time.

[@jowhi9296]

What aider was that you used? I like how it's in a bag. I guess maybe I missed the name of it. Thanks Joe

[@evanm6714]

What backpack are you using?

[@bradshook2611]

Are you using a Sitka pack Alex? If so, which one? Awesome video.

[@mattrobinson2910]

So my question would be with 3 sticks and an aider, how far are you up in the tree? Trying to figure out how many sticks i really need. Also on the new carbon sticks, can you stack more that three together? I see them stacked in threes but not sure if they stack beyond that or have multiple sets of three tied on backpack? Thanks!

[@nemideergoon1844]

Ahhh 2 ropes. Way safer than how I've been using mine.

[@waynefreeman5143]

What brand of back pack did you use in this video?

[@Arkie_Outdoors]

Off topic question, but what boots are those?

[@latitudeoutdoors]

They're actually some Nike boots. They wear kind of like a running shoe. I abused the hell out of them for three years now and they've actually held up great.

[@Arkie_Outdoors]

@@latitudeoutdoors interesting. I’ll have to check them out. I hunt the Ozark Mountains and need some ankle support for side hilling but hate the stiffness of most “mountain” boots.

When will that strap be available?

[@latitudeoutdoors]

This week or next!
