Don't get all in a tizzy about this recall. It is nothing more than replacing the pins and there is nothing wrong with the stands either.
There is nothing wrong with the pins to begin with but people don't like to read directions orwatch theinstructional DVD and were installing the pins incorectly and climbing incorectly which is causing them to come unhooked.
Simply call the number provided and you will be sent new pins.

The average man seeks certainty in the eyes of the onlooker and calls that self-confidence. The warrior seeks impeccability in his own eyes and calls that humbleness.
You guys would be real surprised to know just how many treestand manufacturers get at least part of their stands made in China and simply assemble them here in the states.
