RE: Tree Climber Questions
I recommend the Summit line of climbers. I use the Summit Bushmaster(16 pounds) and have found it to be comfortable to carry in and out of the woods, comfortable to hunt in, quick and easy to set up and climb with and secure once in the tree. I prefer the Bushmaster because it has the open front on the hand climber/seat, which I like for bowhunting. As an added bonus, all Summit stands come with the excellent Seat Of The Pants fall restraint harness. IMO you can't go wrong with any of the Summit stands.
