SADDLE COMPARISON | TETHRD vs. TROPHYLINE vs. CRUZR | Unboxing and Review!

I bought a crust two years ago. I love it and hunt out of it more than my other saddle. I also purchased the JX3 hybrid, and it's heavy and bulky, but the comfort is the best; it's on a different level of comfort, but it's also like toting a recliner in the woods. Lol. For a quick 3-hour hunt, Cruzr for a long hunt, JX3 hands down. Both are great.

Spent a lot of time researching and Cruzr is where I ended. Thanks for the reviews and making my decision feel justified..I have bought from both Cruzr and Tethrd, but pricewise, reviews and functionality is what drove me to Cruzr. Tried it on and ran through everything and waiting for warmer weather in Michigan to give it a go and learn how to use it effectively and safely.

Hey guys, great content.The ONLY two things I liked about the phantom that I had was the raptor buckle( light and easy to adjust) and the utilibridge. I added those two things to my TL covert and find it to be the best saddle I've owned.

Like the linesman belt being used as tree tether in the video

I hunted in the Trophyline Ambush Lite last season. The leg straps are not adjustable on my model which made it down right frustrating to walk in. I am not a tall guy and if the saddle shifts down while you are walking the leg straps would get caught over my knees making it hard to walk. I also added a bunch of padding to the mine because it hurt to wear it for a long time. I think the saddle in your review looks a little better with those leg adjustments. Wish I would have gotten that one. I agree the ropes and carabiners are nice and I do feel really secure while in the tree. Even with all the issues I still plan on using it to hunt next season because I am frugal and don't want to spend even more money for a different one. Thanks for the review.

Awesome video. Plenty of info, But to the point. Well done, Buddy.

awesome info!!!

I went from the tethered to the cruiser really like the cruiser looking forward to put some good hours on it this year

I have had experience with phantom, cruiser, & transformer and all 3 work, and feel great. Comfort is a tied between the Cruizer and transformer. Value is tied between transformer and phantom. All are great but I went with the cruizer.. I used a tree lounge back in the day, and there isn't a more comfortable stand. The tree lounge was light weight too. It ran about 400lb or so and not a ounce more.

I have the Lattitude Method metal free saddle. Awesome for walking in. And I prefer the rope belt over the metal buckles that don’t work. The leg straps do squeeze in the wrong place, and hanging your pouches can be funky. I like it better than the phantom though. Haven’t tried the Cruzr but I’m not going back to a metal belt buckle that slips again.

Just listen to that thing jingle! Anytime a company makes a major flaw in something that should be so obvious, I just wonder about them and have a hard time purchasing their products. However, I didn't purchase their platform and like that but I went with the CRUZR saddle.

Where do you get the platform from?

Rockin it! thx

Thank you

Just throwin saddles around.

I have the Tethrd Saddle, and I love it, but I am curious, Can I purchase the Cruzr Saddle, and use with the Tethrd ropes, or would I need to buy the whole package?

I hope those stemi’s have bought some folks new saddles for the next szn.

I just got the latitude method. Haven’t hunted from it yet but messed with in in the yard a little. Now I can get my oldest boy and my wife out in a tree with me with my Millenium m7 hang on. Going to be fun. Question, getting a shot from my 1-6 seems really...hard. How do y’all do that?

I'm getting the phantom 100$ cheaper than the xc. Is the extra comfort worth the extra 100 if I'm not planning an doing really long sits? Thanks guys.
