I have had 2 of the Old Type since 1994 and would not change for any other type............It has many uses besides a Tree Climber..

I'm a Rifle man, so the platform is no use to me!

I've had an orignal TL since 1993.I used it for years.Some years back TL was sold to another guy and he tried to improve Bob Hice's design. He made a light weight model using a semi rounded extrusion.That thing was death trap. I was just starting to come down from about 25-30 feet when that thing broke loose. It fell probably 3 or 4 feet before it recaught the tree.The stand was all bent up and TL replaced it. I used the replacement once with the same results of not holding the tree. I ended up giving it away.Bob Hice bought TL back before he passed away and he went back to the sq extrusions. I found a GunSlinger climber. I've bought two of them and my old TL hasn't been used in 7 or 8 years now. TL are comfortable but I think the Gunslinger has them beat.
