Default RE: hang-on or climber

The Summit Broadhead is an excellent stand. The local shop sold plenty of them when they were still carrying treestands. Pretty much a Summit Cobra but with the fold-down-flat feature.

From a practical perspective a hang-on stand makes more sense as you can put them anywhere and in any type of tree. A climber is somewhat simpler to use as you don't need a ladder, steps, etc... and is more comfortable for long sits but won't go on trees with branches on the lower levels. Good luck with whatever you choose.
Always carry a few steps with you when you have a climber. Sometimes that perfect tree has a few branches you must clear before you can climb.
