I have decided to get a climbing tree stand.. I was looking at the Gorilla Grey Back climber and wanted some feedback on them... For those that have them or have used them, are they a good climber, do you recommend something else?
I have got nothing but bad things on theme! get you a summit viper classic for around 200 buck's. I just went Thu what you are doing an im so happy with the viper classic. trust me man Drew happy hunting
I have one and one for my wife also.
I bought them at the end of the season sale ( three years agao ) from Walmart on a red tag sale for $48.00 each. The only thing I would ask to be different is it to be lighter and a little wider at the hips. Definately worth the $48.00 I paid and definately worth the $119.00 Walmart was asking at regular price. I just bought a TreeWalker, but sometimes I still use the Gorilla.

Mine has been ok, but I really want a higher quality stand. I feel that the higher quality stands, like the Summit and Lone Wolf stands, are quieter and easier to set up. The Gorilla is a little noisy and does not attach to the tree as quickly as others.
It's ok, that's about it. Very noisy to set-up and squeaky to sit in after a year or so, or if it's cold out. i would spend the $$ and go with something quieter like the LOne Wolf.
