what kind of stand

[halfrack VIII]

what type do you use and how high do you hang them

[GMMAT]

Summit Viper (or that type) climber.

23' on a normal hunt.

I'm going 12' or so for the early season with the longbow.

Jeff, I've been looking at the Summit Viper and thinking about getting one for my climber. At 259 it looks like a good deal? How is it to carry around, climb up the tree, and comfort wise?

Thanks, Ron

Brutus climber the Archer Elite.. Only made them one year or so i think.. Its a pain in the butt to put the latch on the belt, but i normally hunt 17 feet but this year im going up 24 feet.

I have four of them,sumit makes great stands,comfortable enough to hunt all day. And they are very safe.

hunters view and gorilla average about 25-30'

[GMMAT]

My longest walk in is .7mi.

It's never been an issue at +/- 20#'s. I can set it up quietly....and I can get to 23' in about 8-10 "cycles" on the way up.

Once you've done it as many times as I have (I hunt almost exclusively from the climber....and have ascended/descended in it about 120 times over the last 3 seasons) you work out a pretty good "system".

I'd highly recommend this stand to anyone.

Mine are all home made portable metal Hang ons. Depends on the tree or set up but they can all vary from 8' to 20' up.

Iput out 20' ladder stands acouple monthes before season near bedding areas bc their quit and easy to access then use aclimber to hunt what my trail cams find.

Several different kinds of stands, but usually 15-20 feet up.
