Just ordered my saddle. This year was my first year I decided to try and hunt mikes back into public land and I saw so many more deer. Even my lone wolf gets heavy though. Thanks for the video.
In addition to having good content, you also have a good video and audio quality and good presentation style. Keep up the good work.
Your the man Greg! Wont be long now will be back at it 🦌
I just started organizing my Badlands Treestand pack this past week for the upcoming season. I hope my Mantis kit and platform fit in it when they come in. Thanks for the videos and coming out with the Tethrd products! Changing the bow hunting game.
That's awesome! Badlands makes nice packs.
The mantis will definitely fit. and I would say that the predator stands a dang good chance of fitting as well. The mantis rolls up nice and small.
PVC pipe cutters work great for small limbs
SOLD on saddle hunting im coming to the dark side. Tired of dragging tree stands through the woods every year.
Smart man. Have fun!
I haven't bought a climber yet, and have decided to go with a saddle system, unless there is a box blind...😜
Great info. Thanks for taking the time to do it!
can you provide a video on how to attach climbing sticks and platform to a pack? Any suggestions for a pack that can take that on
I enjoyed watching this. Just got into hunting these last 3 years and just now got into bow hunting a couple weeks and bought a compound bow. I'm working hard to do my research on setups, archery equipment, public land places, scouting methods, treestand setups. By far this seems like the most efficient method for my style. I'll be hunting public land for whitetail 95% of the time and I need something lightweight and easy to setup. How much would the saddle hunting setup cost me? I already have all my pack accessories I'm just missing the saddle gear and tree steps
Who do I have to touch in the naughty place to get one of those Tethrd ball caps?..... I'll do it
Lol
I did this same video on my channel. I just hadn't made it public yet. I was at 14lbs without camera gear. Great video and info buddy.
I haven't seen it.
I haven't made it public yet.
Once I get out of west tx I'll get with you get latest up grades
Dude you need to invest in a GPS backtracker from Bushnell... flag a spot on the GPS such as where you parked your truck or that awesome hunting spot no one knows about.. walk back to that same spot from anywhere.. no need to leave orange markers so other hunters can find where your hunting at.. i don't go in the woods without mine.. 8 years and counting... still works well... dude its truly a game changer.. best investment ever!
Good idea. I use my phone (On X maps) but I like the little reflectors too. Keep in mind the reflectors aren't permanent. They get clipped to a tree when I walk by, then taken down a few hours later when I walk back out.
Always enjoy your videos. Another good one. Really intrigued by the knaider/swaider and WE stepps
They're great. Give it a try.
But what about water and snacks? I take 3 bottles for myself and 2 extra if my son is with me.
QUESTION why would you want to put your tree saddle wouldnt it be better if wear your tree saddle to your hunting spot? I seen videos on wear the hunters wear thier tree saddle to thier hunting spot.
I think you've convinced me to pick up a saddle. I have an XOP hand climber but have never gotten comfortable climbing with it. It's a relatively light stand but I'd like to be even more mobile. Do you have a video on making the accessory strap? I've wondered where you hung your bow if you can't screw in a hanger. Seems like a good system.
You could tie a piece of yarn on that retractable hanger so it doesn’t click when you retract it.
I always just retract it slowly. It's never been an issue. Good idea though.
Hey Greg ,
I know you use the muddy sticks as well. Or at least you have were you just strapping those to your pack ? Also you like ladder sticks from what I hear are you still using them as sets? What has been your most effective means of climbing? My platform is finally coming, getting this all set up has taken time, I still want to get the ring of steps, as well. Thanks for the videos keep the brain thinking of new ways to get into the woods without a treestand
I would love a closer look at the clipter. I haven't been able to find any thing like it.
It's called the hero clip now. A link is in the description. It's awesome.
I've watched this a few times and I can't seem to find the pack you're using. The amazon page has the larger pack
I look at any 1 day outdoor adventure as a possibly of spending the night...
Hey check out collapsible water bottle I have a couple the brand is hydropak
I have one of those too!
I need help former Marine grunt, new hunter, trying to be saddle hunter. It’s hard not to pack the kitchen sink. Can you help me out?
It's a process. The exercise that helped me the most was laying out all the gear I would typically take with me. Then I thought about each item and how much I used it on an average hunt. If the item wasn't absolutely required...I put it away. I found that most items were based on unrealistic fears: food, water, emergency devices, and other items that are simply unnecessary for a 4 hour hunt and less than 1 mile from a road. Try that first and see if you make any progress. Report back with your results.
@@G2Outdoors thx I will.
The retractable Lanyard for your range finder could you drop a link please. is it noisy?
Great vid, id add water and kneepads too
Good stuff greg. As usual
Thx man!
Enjoyed the video
I tried the wild edge steps didn't like them going to get some sticks.
They take some practice for sure. But if you stick with them, they'll really grow on you.
QUESTION why would you want to put your tree saddle in your backpack wouldnt it be better if wear your tree saddle to your hunting spot? I seen videos on wear the hunters wear thier tree saddle to thier hunting spot.
Your videos are very informative I've copied your bag holder and bow / accessories holder, the only thing I think your missing , and you may have forgotten to show is a GPS and a compass .
I use my phone and no compass. Probably a good idea though.
Where can I find that accessory holder
Don't forget toilet paper for emergency use or for tracking lol
I’d like to see comfort of saddle vs tree stand
Only way to know is to try. For me, a saddle is more comfortable than a hang on and a ladder stand, but less comfortable than a quality climber.
All I want for Christmas is a saddle. Can u make my wish come true please?
Nice info. But still is B.S. where is the weight with water, snacks, etcs, for survival.
Simple. I don't take any of that. 8ncarry a knife and a small plastic compass in my kill kit. That's all I need. Not sure how that's BS. Thx for checking it out.
Where do you get that tree strap to hang stuff from?
I want the name of that strap
@@tylerarnold7526 He made it. It's just two 1" straps sewn together about every 2" leaving the slack in one for the loops at whatever size you want. I think he shows how he made in a video.
Have you tried the Stealth Steps? Many have said they are good for climbing but not for a platform because of how much they move but i feel this could be eliminated by using a ratchet instead of the cam buckles that come with them
I've tried them. They're ok. Kinda bulky to carry.
I really like your set up; I can see my self getting a saddle for next season. Where did you get your gear strap that goes around the tree; awesome solution for public land where you can't screw in a bow hanger?
I made it from a ratchet strap I had lying around in the garage.
Another great video Greg! Are you using a hydration bladder or water bottles for the Georgia heat? I was using bottles last year but I think they are too noisy so Im switching to a bladder. Right now my starter set up is a cheap game winner pack from Academy with hydration bladder, WE steps in main compartment, and I use Nite Ize to attach Predator Platform to top loop of back pack on the outside. I gotta love this set up. It is so much quieter, lighter, less cumbersome than the Summit climber I used last year.
Check out hydropak collapsible water bottles. They’re awesome.
I don't carry water with me. I leave it in the truck or boat.
@@G2Outdoors in South Georgia,you must be part camel!
Where did you find that gameplan bag? That's exactly what I'm looking for...
I found it on Saddlehunter.com classifieds. Check ebay and archery talk too.
Is that a grand slam outdoors climber hanging on the wall? My dad has the same one and uses it still. Plastic on chain is worn off and some critter ate the seat last year. He found a generic mesh to put on there. Great video! Not that it adds weight but milkweed for wind checking in your setup?
Yup. I use milkweed too. I carry it in my pocket, but I should have included that. Good catch. And yes, that is an API! I had to replace the chain guard with a hose from Lowes.
What kind of hose? I need to replace the chain cover on my API Grand Slam.
Wild Edge Steps vs. Sillent Approach steps?
I lean towards WE stepps because of the quantity I need, but a lot of guys like the silent approach as well.
The W.E. Stepps are rock solid for both vertical & horizontal loading after they're cammed on to tree. It takes some practice as does anything else that is unfamiliar. Don't forget that the inventor, Jim Stepp, has a bum leg from 'Nam & he easily goes up & down on these.
What watch is he wearing? And where'd he get the thing that's wrapped around the thermacell?
Looks like a Suunto
Good God man you carry a lot of stuff :) Good vid though!
Did you make a new accessory strap it looks thinner?
Good catch. Yes. I made it out of 5/8" webbing. Takes up less space plus it's CAMOOOOOOOOO
G2 Outdoors where did you buy your webbing? I don’t know if I’m just not looking it up right but I can’t find the stuff
Are you able to run these saddle setups in pine trees?
Yup. I hunt in southeast GA where there are lots of them. I avoid pine trees because of the sap, but there's no reason you can't if you're willing to deal with that aspect.
@@G2Outdoors good to know. I spend a lot of my season around the Waycross area and it's pines or bushes. It may be time to add a saddle
No water?
I usually don't carry water unless I'm sitting all day.
@@G2Outdoors as south Florida hunter I envy you. I have to take at least 7lbs min with lol to get in and get out safely
Thank you for putting together these videos. Can you talk a little about the climbing line? The predator rope was out of stock at the beginning of season. I was able to purchase an orange rope the Blaze by Yale. Do you feel this is an acceptable color for saddle hunting or a huge blaring siren?
Thay is as heavy or heavier than some climbers
Show me a climber with a backpack, all calls, kill kit, gear hangers, backpack, accessories, etc. that can climb ANY TREE in the woods and also weighs less than my setup and I'll buy your dinner.
@@G2Outdoors ...relax I have a saddle I dont know what u are carrying to be over 20 pounds...my set up comes in at around 15 or less .I do have a climber made by loc on that weights 14 lbs..cannot climb every tree....some trees are just unhuntable no matter the set up
Just subscribed... =) great setup
Thanks for checking it out!
What about a piss bottle, snacks or coffee Bottle?
There have been studies done and deer dont recognize human pee with humans. Let it fly!
Do you bring a pee container, or just let it fly.
let it fly.
Let it fly. All urine turns to amonia in less than 20 minutes.
I want to see what these guys do when they kill a deer
Drag it out just like every other hunter.
First like!!!!
