No e collar yet, just for fun. He’s a bit sloppy and slow but the experience and teaching is good for him. We can get faster and more refined after formal obedience

How I rappel out of trees after hunting from a saddle
Переглядів 44 тис.6 років тому
This is how I rappel down from a tree after hunting from my tree saddle. I'm using a petzl verso belay device and a 6.5mm sewn prusik loop for an autoblock
poor video quality so cant see devices set up
I’ve said it for years arborist were the “mobile hunters “ before mobile hunting was cool
Great video! Do you wear the pack while on sticking?
I’m hoping you have stock again real soon!
Does this Tomahawk x saddle fold and pack nicely ?
Genius
I believe this is the simplest & easiest way to climb to access my tree stand. Will practicing this before season starts.
Good work, you've used a Rad system// I use to clip a short lanyard directly to the hand ascender to have a redundancy ( specialty in big trees) Great video, I liked it. 🙋
I just saw this video 1-4-24. Probably the best explanation and demonstrated videos I've seen on this subject. And it was short and to the point. Thanks. 👍
Just received my transformer. Man that is exceptional quality. Great saddle. Thank you!
Outstanding rundown on this pack-You have a very efficient setup! Just placed an order.
I have your transformer saddle, the best saddle on the market hands down. Love it
I like how they say not getting paid lol ok then why are you reviewing the product. This is some goofy shit lol
I reviewed it because I liked it. It’s a new saddle company that directly competes with my company so it damn sure isn’t about getting paid (which I don’t). I thought it was a good saddle and I made a video to help anyone out there that’s interested in one get some info about it. I reviewed it because the guy that designed it and started the company is a really nice guy that took a chance, and if I can help him out in any way I’m going to do it. If you design something cool Ron, send me one and if I think it’s a good product I’ll do whatever I can to help you. Because that’s what people should do for each other.
I have one they are great!!
How much and where can I actually put my hands on one before buying it?
Turn your phone sideways bro 😊
Don't be afraid to promote. You make a superior product. Fight for it. I researched for 1.5 years before deciding which saddle to go with. Yours was the only one that didn't have a single detractor. It was the most well spoken of saddle I came across. In shootouts it was either the top, tied for tops, or a close second on every time. I am in climber country, but every time saddle talk comes up I always mention your products.
Man I appreciate it. I need to get used to doing the promotional stuff because it’s how you grow.
I have spent the last two seasons in a Transformer. It has been used and abused. Still looks brand new. It has at least 50 sits in it. I feel no need to change. On the walk in I leave my leg straps clipped but not around my legs. I clip them in at the tree. Great product!
What a awesome saddle system! Orion is top notch
Dude, if you start busting these out yourself again you’re gonna kill it! I mean tx5 and a couple others are good but I don’t think any of them can hang with the quality you bring to the table! Wish I could sew like you I’d be selling the crap out of em lol
Thank you!!! I really try to make every one of them perfect.
Congratulations on finishing school. Love my transformer saddle . Been practicing in it . Can I just order carabiners with out the rope . Are the decals & shirts available to also
Yeah I can send you some carabiners and a shirt and decal. Just email me at support@overwatchoutdoors.net
Congrats on finishing school Jamie! Glad to see you are taking the business forward. I’ve had an opportunity check out a lot of saddles through my meetup in WI and the quality of the Transformer and Orion you sent up for us to try out remains second to none.
Congrats
Congrats on finishing school! You make an awesome saddle, and you're a great guy.
Congrats on finishing school! Glad to hear you’re bringing everything back in house. I have an original transformer made by you and a handmade Orion as well. These are easily the best made and most comfortable saddles I’ve sat in. Top notch guy and business . Highly recommend
Absolutely the best in the business!
Good to see you back, Jamie, and congrats on your schooling! Nice video and thanks for the info on the new products. For those looking at these products, I can tell you from experience last fall when I purchased a Transformer that 1) Service is fantastic, 2) Any product questions? This man will answer them and 3) these are DEFINITELY top quality and craftsmanship. Highly recommend the company and the products.
Hi, I'm interested in purchasing your system how much and how do I het it Thank's Ralph
Been saddle hunting for over 30 years but have used screw in tree steps or climbing sucks. Thanks for the info, I'm switching to SRT because it's alot safer and I'm 66 years old.
Great job and all your videos, I'm wondering if it would be easier if I had a rope ladder connected to the rope around the limb to my safety harness and then climb the rope ladder to pull me up I could connect a second carabiner from my safety harness to a ladder step to stop and rest. I've never tried it but I'm wondering if it would work. You're essentially doing the same thing with your climbing method
Hrmm might have to try this
Do you have any plans to make the predator platform pocket available for sale or can you make one for purchase? I'm looking for a similar setup for attachment on my Kifaru pack. Great info!
I actually shared that design with Jerry at custom gear modifications and he makes them for people now. I’m sure he would be happy to make you one or possibly has them in stock on his website.
Where can I find more info about the equipment you are using, what size/style rope etc, what descender etc
I use Sterling 9mm htp rope and a madrock safeguard or lifeguard.
How many Stepps then do you need to get up to 18-20ft hunting height?
yea i want to do that
Curious your harness do you pull it up some because I just started the srt and I’m killing my back any suggestions?
I don’t worry about being comfortable during the climb because it’s just a minute. I worry about being comfortable once I’m setup to hunt. But try to stay as upright as possible instead of leaning back while you climb
@@overwatchoutdoors910 got it! Appreciate it!
great video thanks !
Thanks for the video how much rope do you need for SRT
I definitely need one and we are going to call it the silence slayer....
The slayer or mustang
Looking at your website does this new saddle have the delays that the Transformer is having?
I build the new one as a completely custom order for now. I’m about a month out on them right now but you can get on the list. Just call or text me
I am very interested in this saddle. What is your lead time?
Wait that ascension you make look too easy . A gri gri?? Fiddle block??
Setting throw ball the day before sold me on this method...I was trying to figure out how to set my rope 30 minutes to an hour before sun up. Thanks dude.
do not use a Knaider Swaider ccombination without having your linemans belt attached or using a tether. The other day when practicing climbing with a Knaider Swaider and wild edge steps. I becaue was only going up one step nd did not have my linemans belt attached to the tree. One minute I was attached to stand with my knaider. the next scond I was hanging upside down hanging from my Knaider. Yes, I was hanging upside down. After geetting my witts because and that I was only one step high I could get myself straightened up and disconected from the tree. I was a valuable lesson to learned only one step off the ground. I bruised my wrist and rib cage, along with my pride. It could have been a lot worse if I had been up 20 feet.
What's a good source for a kit?
Hallo would you please make a video on the saddle build.
What are you wanting to see?
@@overwatchoutdoors910 the build of that saddle that you took the leg straps of. I'm from South Africa and want to do a diy. I like that saddle and the looks of it.
@@overwatchoutdoors910 maybe we could talk on WhatsApp or chat or massenger
"Deceptor" would be a cool name. I have a Transformer. I had a great season hunting out of it last year. Awesome saddle!
The only thing that is a turn off for me is that it has no safety rating, most of the other big name saddle manufacturers have a maximum safety rating of 300lbs. Any chance you would have these rated at a later date?
I’d love to have them rated. I’m not sure who to get to rate them though because there isn’t a company or process for rating a saddle that I’m aware of like there is for tree stands. The treestand manufacturers association TMA doesn’t rate saddles like they do as an industry standard for tree stands. There is no “Saddle Manufacturing Association”
Thank you for taking the time to explain the details.
