Last year I bought several 15' ladder stands from D1ck's sporting goods for $49 each and they work great and were built well. I plan to buy a few more of these this year......

I second that! I usually pick up like 4-5 each year for that price, and sacrifice one so that i can make them all 20ft... or you can buy the extension...they work good, comfortable enough. just need the safety belt as always...

I use both a ladder and hangin, I use the hangin stands for bow hunting because i don,t like armrest and all that to restrict movement when bow hutnin and is use the ladders when gun or smoke pole huntin for the comfort and shootin rails and i usually take some burlap and hang around the shootin rail to add some camo. the ladder is a big game deluxe box stand super comfortable and the hangin stands i like Gorrila and ameristep

I have gotten mine from Cabelas when they are 2 for $69 each. Work great. Guess I will have to check out Dicks. I have a deer hauler I take them in & out of the woods on. I have also gotten the Double one from WalMArt on sale for $75-makes it nice-I can sit with my Daughter when she goes.

BUY A GOOD CLIMBER, STAY AWAY FROM LADDER STANDS. ONLY THING THEY'RE GOOD FOR ARE 1. TO GET STOLEN, 2. FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO USE, 3. TO PRACTICE IN YOUR BACKYARD WITH, 4. TO GET STOLEN AGAIN.

If you thought it was a pain to set up a hangon, you should try setting up somebodies ladder stand before you buy one. I've got an old strongbuilt ladder that's sturdy and comfortable but it's a real chore to set up by yourself. The hangons are much lighter and easier once you do them a few times.

Check out the Sportsmans guide. I have 7 of there 20 ft ladder stands. They are around $120 each. I got mine on sale for $117. These stands are very comfortable and stable. I even add a extra section of ladder so I am at 25ft. I am able to put these stands up by myself by hanging a pulley in the tree and then simply pull the stand into position. Also if you join there buyers club you can get everything at a discounted price.
