All you need is your pant size. From there I make the saddle to your size, and add a bit of room to take into account late season clothing. You can also measure yourself. Take your measuring tape and start about an inch or so in front of your pant seam (hip area), few inches down from your belt. Then proceed over the top of your butt to the other side of your pant seam . Think of the measuring tape as the saddle material . You want each end to be in front of the pant seam. From that number I will add a few more inches for late season clothing, so don't be too generous.

Absolutely! We're located in downtown Toronto and can arrange for a pick up that's convenient.

We recommend around 10" thick to about a size you can wrap your arms around and grab both hands. Too thin and you run the risk of breaking the tree with the risk increasing on windier days. Too thick and you're carrying a lot on unnecessary rope. Climbing stick and platforms are designed for certain tree thickness, check with the company you get them from. Always make sure the tree is healthy.

Saddle hunting provides a very safe system of hunting from an evaluated position. From the moment you leave the ground , you are connected to the tree from either the lineman's rope or the tether rope at all times . Always following the proper safety procedures involved in climbing.

All day. The saddle is expandable giving you a hammock feel to it. Add a back support and you might feel the desire to take a nap up there!

Yes you can. When you get to a branch, you would already have your lineman's rope around the tree. You would then take out your tether rope and tie It around the tree above the branch and to your saddle's bridge. Only then when you are locked in can you unhook the lineman's rope and reattach it to the tree above the branch.
