They take some getting used to.Practice setting up and down.Practise packing it around,make sure is fits your body,I had to change my pack straps because I couldn't get my arms through.Take it out and set in it for a while or even better go shoot from it.Get your seat adjusted,find where it is comfortable.

Being able to find a good tree is fine until your up there and find you can't shoot at anything because of the branches from other trees.

Getting up the tree isn't too hard but once your there, finding a place to store all the goodies you brought along becomes another issue.Hooks and straps help.

Packing light is a must.Take only what you absolutely need.Especially if you have to do much of a carry.

Like everything else you will learn as you go.Ron
