which would you choose

[Brknarrow1970]

I have an option of buying two or three ladder stands or another climber

I have been debating on this for weeks but if I choose the ladders will need to purchase, paint and put out in the next two weeks

I have 800 acres leased with 11 other guys bowhunting only, we are allowed to put up 4 stands each

I have always used climbers but thinking it would be nice to have stands in place and just walk to them

advantages to ladders- can walk to, already there, less weight, less sweating
advatages to climber mor mobile, can shift set-up in 10 mins or less, portable, and no chance of theft as they come out with me

what would you choose and why

Iwould put up three ladder stands and have one climber so that I could be mobile if/when needed.

What brand of climber do you have now? Are you due for an upgrade? If not I would buy 3 ladders and put the out there and keep the climber in the truck so you can go get it if you have to be mobile.
