I run a Tethrd Phantom saddle and a predator platform. First 2 years I ran the Mantis saddle but the Phantom is more comfortable. It took me a season to get comfortable with the small platform. I set up for the deer to hopefully be on my left side at about 10 o’clock. Then I can use the tree as cover and lean out when I want to shoot. Weak side shots are a challenge though no matter what anyone says, trust me.
2 times in the past 4 seasons I have made short 30 yard midday moves based on the morning deer movement and gotten shots after the move. I can take down and set up with little noise.
I have pulled several all day sits in a saddle and as far as being comfortable I would rather be in a hang on. It’s the flexibility of trees, the weight savings, and quietness of step up that I like though.
I ran 3 beast sticks with homemade single step aiders. Aiders can be a challenge so you need to really practice and take your time using then.
For gun season I would rather sit in a climber/hang on/ladder stand. It’s tough to explain but a gun just feels awkward to me in a saddle.

A blonde was playing Trivial Pursuit one night. When it was her turn, she rolled the dice and she landed on "Science & Nature".
Her question was, "If you are in a vacuum and someone calls your name, can you hear it?
She thought for some time and then asked, "Is it on or off?"

A cowboy was walking down the street with his new pet dachshund. The passerby asked him why a cowboy would own that kind of dog.
The cowboy answered, "Well, somebody told me to get along little doggie."

My first apartment was so close to the Airport...
That every time I went to the kitchen to make a brew and a sandwich, the stewardess told me to get back to my seat.

Thanks guys!
I basiclly prep year round physically anyway and ramp up in the spring. I need to hit the archery practice a little harder. Been shooting a few times a week lately.
I've hunted CO twice in the past 3 years and killed a cow with blackpowder last year.
I am very interested to see how WY compares to CO.

A man and his wife were having an argument about who should brew the coffee each morning. The wife said, "You should do it, because you get up first, and then we don't have to wait as long to get our coffee."The husband said, "You are in charge of the cooking around here so you should do it, because that is your job, and I can just wait for my coffee."Wife replies, "No, you should do it, and besides it says in the Bible that the man should do the coffee."Husband replies, "I can't believe that! Show me."So she fetched the Bible, and opened the New Testament and showed him at the top of several pages, that it indeed says, "HEBREWS."

Over breakfast one morning, a woman said to her husband, "I bet you don't know what day this is."
"Of course I do," he indignantly answered, getting up from the table and going out the door to the office.
At 10am, the doorbell rang. When the woman opened the door, she was handed a box containing a dozen long-stemmed red roses. At 1pm, a foil-wrapped, two-pound box of her favorite chocolates arrived. Later, a boutique delivered a designer dress.
The woman couldn't wait for her husband to come home. When he did, she exclaimed, "First the flowers, then the chocolates and then the dress! I've never had a more wonderful Groundhog Day in my life!"

An older couple wakes up in the morning and the husband looks over at his wife and says, " Wow! You wouldn't believe the dream I had..."
The wife replies, "Yes, go on tell me."
So the husband says "I had a dream that you left me after 20 years of being married."
The wife says, "Oh, it sounds more like a nightmare."
The husband says, "No, I am sure it was a dream."

Me to the postman: This empty envelope must be from my sister Charlotte.
Postman: Now why would she send you an empty envelope?
Me: We had an argument, and she's not talking to me..
