Camo'ed my climber

Camo'ed my climber
Used the Sneaky Leaves from Bass Pro. I pinned them on the padding fabric and used camo tape to attach them to the metal railings.

Pretty cool
I got something like that for my treestands, their made by the same company but its called a squirel's nest.
You get four branches and a bracket that you mount on your stand or on the tree it self.
It also comes in a six branch pack when you attach them on you can bend it to cover your self.

looks great!
I had my Mom, the master rumage sale rummager, look for old artifical Christmas tress for cheap.
She got me a 10 ft one for 1.00
I plan on using the "boughs" to camo my ladder stands
Zip tie them on and then you can bend them to whatever position you want
The 10 ft tree yielded a big box of boughs for me to use
The longer ones I can use like the squirrel nest up at the top to help cover the hunter.
I haven't been to the woods to put them on yet but I'll take some pictures when I do and post them.
I already told her I need more. When she asked why, I told her because between me and Larry(my hunting partner) we have 13 stands! She just shook her head

Buellhunter, give it a shot if you want- but my touchy deer didn't go for it one bit.
I wrapped my climber all over with fake chrismas tree limbs and each time I would accidentally touchit, rub it with ashoe orelbow up against the fake limbs the deer within view would go on full alert. If it was making any noise doing soI couldn't hear it, but boy those deer sure could. SoI slowly but surely removed limb by limb until the point where it was all gone.
The best thing I've done to date is place tie-wraps loosely around different portiones of the climber and then stuff some local natural brush and limbs into the holes/loops made by they tie wraps. Each time I relocate I just refreshen it up some.
Good luck with those leafs, they look good and quiet too.

Never thought of the noise.
I'll keep it onthe ladder partand maybe use some on the tree behind me to break up my outline? That way while on stand there will be no way of me touching it and alerting the deer. I could see where it would be a problem on a climber. Thanks for the heads up.
I have one stand that is in a great location but the best tree is bare to about 25 ft, the ladder is fifteen so I am pretty exposed. Deer have busted me and others I have let hunt that stand a couple times.
They keep coming back through the same trail though.
