RE: Summit Stand Bowhunters
Finally found a stand I like...The Summit Bushmaster X4 (Last year's model). I think the new one is the X5 but pretty much the same. I really like that it's light, packs well, and allows me to climb easier than I thought possible with a climber. The only modification was the climbing stirrups, which are plastic, were digging into my rubber boots which was hard on the tops of my feet. So I went to hardware store and bought a section of that plumber's foam that fits around pipes. I cut a length of foam a little longer than each stirup, slid them over each end until it covered the length of each, and fastened them with some of those plastic tie downs. Now I can pull up with my feet without that plastic digging into my feet.
