Default Tree Saddle

How many guys are planning on using a tree saddle this fall? I am thinking about buying one and giving it a shot.

Plus. The search feature never works for me. Is there something I am missing? Does anyone else have this problem?

I like the concept of the tree saddle. But, an I could get enough practice to get good at shooting. But what do you do with the bark that your boots are knocking off the side of the tree, it goes to the ground. If the deer can spot you in a tree stand with very little movement what is he going to do when your whole body is moving around. Nope, afraid not.

I have a tree suit. It's like a tree saddle. I call it my 3 hour stand because after 3 hours in it it's all I can stand. It tears at my stomach muscles. I love the concept but they claimed it was soo comfortable that you could sleep in it[:'(]
I am wondering if the saddle is any better.

I have one and I love it. It won't work for big guys but it will allow you to hunt and make shots from trees that are impractical for climbers.

Here's my review from the first year:

I can't find my review from the second year but here's anotherguy's:

I have always been interested in these...Just cant bring myself to fork out 200 bucks only to find out they are waaaay uncomfortable, like they appear. They look like a set of camo depends with a long strap on em.

Just seems way to uncomfortable for me to try, could be wrong though.
