Viper by all means. Some guys don't like the bar, but it helps in more ways than it gets in the way. For one, you can sit-n-climb so you don't work as much of a sweat and stink up the woods. The trick to shooting over the bar is to cinch up the seat and keep it so your knees are just below the bar when sitting. It makes a nice place to lay the bow in front of you when you're sitting, too. And if ya fall asleep it adds just a bit of security

I'll gvie up a shot or two in a lifetime for added safety and convenience in climbing anyday.
