climbing treestand
I bought my tree stand after the hunting season was over and I'm very anxious to use it hunting. I've practiced climbing some trees several times this winter. It works great! It's easy to set up and climb with. I was a little disappointed when I got the stand in the mail and saw that the padded rest isn't padded all the way around to the sides. Also the backpacking straps have not been updated as I was led to believe on their websites and you tube. These straps are supposed to allow you to connect the seat to the base in case you lose the base while on the tree. I think Amazon must get old versions of these stands to sell.

The boot stirrups and strap on the back of your boots are a huge improvement over my last stand....had to reach down and tighten a buckle! This stand is pretty large and will not only handle larger hunters, it'll go around bigger trees. The downsides: Hard to figure out how to put together for carrying it. The seat is used as a pad for your back but ends up being in the way of the shoulder straps. Likewise, there is no real good place to put the seat while climbing. It's constantly getting bumped by your knees. All in all, best stand I've ever owned that is light, easy to climb and most importantly, makes you feel secure while up in a...
