[QUOTE="philsanchez76, post: 5756811, member: 20332"] Ive been saddle hunting for 5 seasons now and I can attest that it definitely is safer than what I was doing before. Im always tied into that tree with 2 ropes; my linesman helps position me and then I move my tether up the tree as I go (because I just use a one sticking method). A lot of guys that use 3-4 sticks to climb only use their lineman rope until they get to height. You can still have a stick kick out and you can still slide down the tree. That's why I recommend also using the separate tether while climbing. Because you will not be able to fall during a kick out or if one of your other ropes fails for some reason. You just have to think about all your moves more with a saddle. I think you'll find it checks those boxes for you. [/QUOTE]
