The Saddle Pack Rat is a universal platform and stick carrier pack that acts as a knee pad once in the stand. The center channel allows various sized platforms to stay centered and secured in the pack. The Pack Rat design allows climbing sticks can be carried in the vertical position to avoid tangles and hang-ups.
The DLX is our newest Pack Rat edition with integrated shoulder straps.

This thing is perfect for minimalistic saddle hunting every piece goes up and straps to the tree would 1000 percent recommend!
As Someone who’s constantly on the hunt for better, more useful gear, I’ve gone through my fair share of systems. What sets this one apart is its thoughtful design and efficiency. Every piece serves a purpose, and nothing feels excessive or wasted—especially when you're up in the tree.
The packability is impressive. Its small and light, making it ideal for anyone who values mobility without sacrificing functionality. Walking in with this setup is a breeze—comfortable, streamlined, and unobtrusive. You barely notice it’s there until you need it.
What I appreciate most is how each component integrates seamlessly into the overall system. It’s not just gear—it’s a well-orchestrated setup that works with you, not against you.
One greatly appreciated customer, Jim Gruener.
Love it!!
So I have had a couple of hunts now using Pack Rat and tree hugger combo, and it is great. I use 4 tethrd one sticks and the tethrd predator V platform. Walking into the woods I feel more compact being a mobile hunter. Climbing the tree has been a easier experience. And after i get the tree hugger and pack rat hooked to the tree I absolutely love the organization no more looking in my backpack for something. The only issue I have and it may just be I have not got the system of approach yet is getting everything attached to the. I feel like I am playing a circus act with the straps. But it is honestly a very minor detail. Which in time I will get it figured out. I would recommend this setup to everyone that saddles hunt.
I was travelling last week and haven’t taken to the woods but it’s packed and ready and tons lighter than my backpack. I’ll send more pics after this weekend!
