Instead of being carried like normal platforms, the Pursuit Platform was made to be worn into your hunting location and carry the weight of your pack for you. The teeth that are made to cut into the tree can get uncomfortable on your back without a tough pad though! The Pursuit Kneepad fits directly into the teeth of the platform, protects your back from the aggressive teeth and works as a knee pad once you get to the tree. The Pursuit Kneepad is more dense than most, but believe me you'll be glad when it's protecting your back from those teeth! It comes with a G-hook and a 3/4" strap that will fit any tree you'd hunt from. Combine it with the Pursuit Platform and the Stick Quiver for the most compact and portable hunting system on the market: The Pursuit Ultimate Bundle ! Proudly made in the USA ???? *Platform not included*
