Deer Hunters Find Mobility in Saddle Stands

Many deer hunters these days are focusing on mobility to be able to reach those places back in the woods where few humans venture. Instead of lugging full-size climbing stands more than a mile into the woods, those hunters are opting for a minimalistic approach, which is where saddle hunting comes in. One of my colleagues at the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (ADCNR) had mentioned saddle stands, and I got to check out one option at last week’s Buckmasters Expo at the Montgomery Civic Center.
