I am new to this site and thought I would get some advise from everyone. I am an "old school" arborist. When I was starting out we were still using manila rope! My saddle is getting pretty ratty and thought I should invest in a new one. The twist is, I what to use it for hunting also. I saw a item called the "tree suit" used for deer hunting from a tree. You use a sling to secure yourself to the tree from a single, center point and then you just sit back in the saddle and are free to swing around the tree to shoot 360 deg. So, I am looking for a saddle that is comfortable to sit in for several hours, without pinching the thighs. I see a lot of the new gear is hi-bred mountain climbing gear, and am looking for advise in which saddle would work best for both my applications. One similar hunting harness I saw has an improvised seat built into it for long hours sitting still in the tree. Any suggestions on what type of harness/saddle I should be looking for? Thanks..............
