This was my first season hunting from a saddle and I’m glad I chose the Venatic saddle. It is light weight and comfortable to wear on the way to the tree and while sitting all day. They also have amazing customer service.
If you choose trophyline you won’t be disappointed!
I love the Mission platform. I’m 6’1” and 285 lbs and the mission is awesome! It cams over great and sticks to the tree like glue!! It has lots of room to stand and turn.
I use this pack as a saddle hunter, I carry the Fourth arrow camera arm, 3.0 knuckle, ozonics, GH 5 camera, extra jacket, release, binos with shoulder pack, toilet paper, spare release, pull down rope, range Finder, hunting hoist bow rope retractor, mini platform from latitude outdoors, and use the outside straps to carry my half line 40 foot rope in for SRT. I say all that to let you know how much room is for n it and how it can be used. I’ve only used it for late season hunts so far and can’t wait to use it in the early season. I have went through several back packs trying to find something that would safely carry all my gear without feeling cramped. I feel like this back pack does it for me. There is more room on the outside to strap additional clothes to the pack with the side straps provided. I haven’t used the bow or gun carrying option and provided cam holder but seems like it would work just fine. Hope this helps you understand if it will work for you. I’m pleased!! Donovan
The handle was broken on the first one I got. Probably could’ve been inspected before leaving the factory. Customer service was great though. They replaced it.
I love this thing. Lightweight and silent. I attached it to my saddle with a pice of bungee, a washer and a cord lock. Makes it super easy to use and roll up.
