My summit is awkward to carry in thick cover too. Thats where the XOP or LW sit and climb shines. I just ordered a super slumper seat, which has a 4 inch cushion and I am going to see how it does. It will fit a summit stand.

And I am going to see about modifying the seat platform on my XOP.

They sure need to start making the solo pro ladder stand again. I sure would like to get a few more. Just found a few dual pros so I grabbed them before they are all gone

I had a Summit Viper for many years before my shop burnt March of '20. I bought a Summit Titan to replace it and while it is very comfortable it does suck carrying it in these rocks and mountains. I have thought about trying the saddle route but being 6'1" 265 and have a shot lumbar spine I'm not sure I can be comfortable in one. Haven't convinced myself to spend the money to find out yet.

There is a guy in my club who has a saddle and he said last year he would let me try it. I have a torn disk in my low back, so comfort is my concern also. I do think it would work well with my 450 BM AR15 though.

Same for me. The summit seat is perfect for my bad back and hips. The gap between them seat pad and they back pad doesn't put any pressure on the base of my spine.

Man that's awesome of you to make that offer. I may just take you up on it, what saddle system do you use? I'm in Grant.

Y’all tried the Cougar Claw stands. I think they are made in Foley. I really like them and Summit. I’m going to try the JX3 Hybrid saddle this year.

Have two summits and a API. My new (this season) summit's seat straps make stretching sounds when I sit down and slightly when I get up. I stand most of the time anyway and I don't get surprised much by deer as I used to, so not a big deal. It will break in eventually. I've only been caught sitting down once this year and I was able to get into position before a bird landed on a rotten branch, which broke, and spooked all 3 deer that I was aware of. Comfort-wise no complaints.
