Just delete my post if you are going to change most of what I say.

The issue is not to be an and complain about Tethrd and every company that makes something we don’t like or this issue of 1 stick that broke…we are all grown men not children.
FYI it is impossible to die or fall to the ground when you are tethrd in while climbing so not sure why everyone thinks they are going to die if a stick or platform fails.
As for AT the arguing and hating never stops, this should be a forum where we can learn and enjoy being here not listening to everyone complaining.
I know I’m just a Tethrd fanboy…

Here's a positive to come out of this:
Tethrd showed the hunting industry that people will pay a silly amount of money for ultra light weight hunting gear. Same with LWCG and HB with their sticks and stands.
Look at just the second drafts of their stuff, and several other companies coming in.
Lots of warts. Lots of misses. But there's enough incentive for people to keep innovating. We're gonna see some cool stuff. And you will be able to get good deals on lightly used stuff that will make your hunting experience more enjoyable.
Hard to quantify. But significant wealth and value have and are being created.
One thing I found interesting is Dan's approach to stand and sticks. The sticks seem to be overbuilt, and right down the middle on the concept. The stand seems to be as light as it can be for the dimension. One item gets used in a very dynamic way, with many unknown forces acting in many different components and directions. One just sits there holding up dead weight, mostly.
Interesting which one is overbuilt, and which one is underbuilt...
Probably a few legal issues that need ironing out before information can be divulged.I gotta be honest, I like those guys as people, especially since I interacted with all of them here before the business explosion, but the "radio silence" is pretty bothersome, and I tend to agree with this statement.
Agreed 100%. I never got that.1. I think it sucks that they're having a problem with the sticks. Not because I give two hoots about the company or history, but folks built plans and systems around the sticks and it's a wrench in what they're trying to do until it gets ironed out.
2. I wonder if 90% isn't an exaggeration. The Tethrd team were members here first, how many others were as well, before they formed the company. I know I certainly knew and looked into saddlehunting prior to joining, and I joined well after Tethrd was a thing. How many are like me?
3. I do appreciate Tethrd "stepping out on a limb", but they did so when the environment was ripe. They didn't invent saddle hunting, a specific genre of saddle, saddle platforms, sticks....Mobile hunting was taking off with Youtube, social media, idea sharing forums at the time. I don't know they are owed as much as folks tend to present, a lot of what they've brought to market started with ideas shared openly here.
When you buy 3 or 4 sticks to use to climb and set a platform you are not tethered in . Most will use a linesman rope and should a step fail it sure wouldn't be good. When you buy a product you shouldn't have to worry if it's going to fail. I like Tethrd I have Skeletor stick and my favorite saddle is my ESS but that has nothing to do with a stick failing and someone getting hurt.The issue is not to be an and complain about Tethrd and every company that makes something we don’t like or this issue of 1 stick that broke…we are all grown men not children.

There is some old-timey wisdom hope you don't mind being injected goes as
Grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Has anyone received a return label?

They are not scammers, every one that purchased ONE sticks received those sticks not a empty box.Per post 315, 7749 sticks. If they were all sold in 3 packs that's 2583 customers.
I think Tethrd is going to be busy for a while.
You have some protection with your payment method, credit card.
The OP started this thread excited when he received his gen 2s & then has transitioned into a frustrated support group for most of those same purchasers. Of course Tethrd is going to get some lighting rod haters in response to the spotlight they point at their brand. Take your own advice, learn & grow from this forum without turning it into AT.The issue is not to be an and complain about Tethrd and every company that makes something we don’t like or this issue of 1 stick that broke…we are all grown men not children.
