Love seeing the bullman ring of steps! They don’t get near the amount of recognition they deserve

Get the UP (Ultimate Platform) from Eastern Woods Outdoors. You can just mount it to the top of your last stick. Your basically going to build a one stick. It works extremely well with the ring of steps and allows you to use them to there full potential. The difference is the UP will have the platform above the standoff unlike a regular platform. This allows you to place the Bullman steps slightly above the platform and you can shoot 360 degrees around tree just by walking around the steps using the corner of the UP to kick off of. I can send some photos. Its one less item to hang and tote because your stick and platform is one. Putting a cam lock with rope makes it better to and a lot faster.

Yeah that's the setup right there man.

The bullman's ros is great. I run it by itself for most of the season. It's comfortable enough for sitting which I prefer. I have no idea how some people stand on it the whole day.

If you’re running beast sticks check out the raptor 12” platform from beast gear. I just put one on my top stick and use that with 5 treehopper steps. Having the platform already on your stick is the way to go in my opinion as there’s less things to fiddle with, carry and strap. I also rappel down it’s a lot safer in my opinion and gives me the ability to one stick or bring my top stick up a little to better hunting height without worrying about how I’m gonna climb down. I would really recommend getting enough steps to move around the tree to make that shot on deer coming from behind. It seems like a lot of movement but with the right cover and timing movements right the difference in taking that shot is night and day. You’ll never want to turn behind to shoot again if you can help it. I also try to find a tree slightly wider than me for using the ROS. For areas where there’s only one tree to hunt from and it’s smaller and less ideal the smaller platform will keep you tighter to the tree and less likely to be silhouetted. At least that’s my experience.

Another geat video Josh! - been watching your videos for a while now and didn’t realize you run the exact same set up I do including the Xwing and I too have been thinking about getting a Rebel for next season and then I saw the 20% off code and that pushed me over the edge and just ordered one. Thank you!

Continues practice out of your saddle, then you become a ninja of techniques and forms and ad the traditional bow, and now your the ultimate predator. No better feeling and high, my guy.👊

Glad you mentioned the rope sizes with the ropeman 1, I was unaware, I bought new, smaller ropes, and didn't know it wasn't rated for 8mm.

Josh I've been using the latitude saddle myself for several years!

@jeffreygerber4336 2 ай бұрын

Had the latitude gear holder an went back to the tetherd I think it gives you more adjustments for hanging gear. Love the videos Josh keep them coming 👍

Now is definitely the time of year to get your gear ready or try something new.

On my bow/equipment strap I use those clip on retractable badges. I take off the badge and clip on calls, rangefinder, cell phone, or whatever else. It gives me less mess of strings and the items retract back to the tree. Check em out

Josh, thanks for reinforcing the point of using platform with steps. As you are tinkering your set up for the up coming season, would you be interested in trying a climbing platform? Osprey Outdoors will send you one if you have an interest.

On the pull up line do you just attach it by caribeanier?

@Stevo77 2 ай бұрын

So would latitude have a tether I could use with my beast gear? Sorry, I'm really naive about saddles. I have the linemens belt, but once I'm on the stand I'm looking for something.

Yep it would be the vapor line

So josh, you didnt like the x-wing overall? Not enough room? After spending a season in it a review video would be cool. Im curious because i run your same setup and swtiched from a predator platform to the x-wing to try this year.

@beforetheecho 2 ай бұрын

Oh no I liked it for sure. Just wanting to try out a bigger platform to see if I like it better.
