Anyone use a sit drag for ground hunting? The only review I can find are for folks using them as a saddle. I'm not interested in that. Seems like it would either be great or suck.

Its been a while, but I think it was originally designed to be used at ground level, not as a saddle. I think they used to have a Youtube video of it. Sorry Im not more help, I dont have mine anymore.

I've tried mine out and have since modified it. It's made to be used sitting facing the tree, but I wanted to use it with my back to the tree, and the single line tether connected to the seat strap pulls the seat together too tightly. 

My modification is to not use the top strap that's connected to the seat straps, but rather to tie a light rope or cord to one seat strap about 18 inches above the seat, wrap it around the tree and tie the other strap off with it at about 18 inches as well. This will depend on the diameter of the tree. This keeps the straps apart at the top rather than being pulled into a V. The result is a more comfortable seat.

Even so, there still is a tendency for it to want to slip off the back side, but not as much as if it's hung the traditional way. That's not a problem, of course, if you sit facing the tree, but the rather tight seat is.
