Slauka, I hunt from a climber 95 percent of the time too, but I do own a half dozen hang ons and several climbing sticks. I own 3 climbers. LOL Now how many of those can you use at once. LOL

For an extra $50 you can get LW sit and climb. It's only 14lbs.

It just got significantly less appealing once I saw the $319 price tag.
85 lbs

You have to have at least 22' of open ground to lay the beast downbefore lifting it up against the tree and doing it by yourself is out of the question. Season long permanent stand.

The 21' ladder stand being talked about goes for over $300 . I can purchase 6 (six) suitable 15' ladder stands at D!cks Sporting Goods Store for that price . They wouldn't be as comfortable but they would work !

You would hear deer from 500 yards away snicker at that thing in my neck of the woods. That thing looks like a reconditioned German tank. Anything that portrudes that far out from the base of the tree draws suspicion from deer around where I hunt. So I would never use that thing if I were hunting with a bow.
