Comment on CRUZR XC Hunting Saddle Test and Review (Full Season) by Keith McNeal

Hello Robert: I have been a saddle hunter for 37 years starting in 1987. I was fortunate enough to be in the same hunting club for a few years with James Green, who as you may know, is the person that started saddle hunting and the founder of “Green’s Tree Saddle”. I have hunted out of 2 or 3 of his prototypes as he would change and upgrade saddles. I acquired my last one in the early 90’s and still own to this day.
I also own a Cruzr XC and find it to be a VERY comfortable and a well made saddle. I just wanted to let you know I enjoyed your article and came to your same conclusions. I found the buckles to not be that big of a deal as they don’t make that loud of a noise while buckling and one has probably already made unwanted noise doing other things while walking in or setting up. Hopefully a hunter is not setting up that close to a bedding area and if you are, the buck has already been tipped off.
Again ….. great article and I hope you have a great and successful upcoming season!!

But what defines “good cover”? Can you provide visually what 10 feet off the ground with good cover looks like..

I’m new to saddle hunting just now learning about it. I’m short so apart from a ladder stands and without using aiders, 10.5 feet will be my sweet spot.. I’m going to assume good cover would be anything that would break up your pattern? So I would most likely use those tree branch holders where you can stick branches in them to give cover it it would be highly adaptive to where I’m expecting the deer to move as how a ladder stand would work..

Wow you almost got them all! Only one I can think of is WIND . I love being able to go to any of my hunting areas and not worry about the wind until I get there, checking on the phone, check it in real time and go pick a tree into the wind. Can’t do it with a fixed stand, and tough to do even with a climber.
Thought you all would forget about tree cover, but you didn’t.
Once I decide on the wind Direction, that’s the second thing I look for is a tree with limbs and leaves 12 to 15 feet up.

Aiders: the only caveat to what you say is that I’ve used the one stick with three step aider as the only move in thicker areas. I’m sure it can be done with the two step, but just my two cents.
