A hunting saddle is a simple alternative to a traditional hang-on tree stand. Think of a hunting saddle as a rock climbing harness for hunting. Hunting saddles are designed to help hunters be more mobile and hunt in locations that were inaccessible with a tree stand. As a result, hunters are able to more efficiently adapt to changing conditions and improve success rates. Hunting saddles shine in scenarios where hunting locations are long distances from the truck or in thick cover that would be too noisy to walk through with a metal tree stand.
