been a fan of buckshot stands for about four years now. the only thing I didn't like about it was its weight and time needed for set up. so, I got the new stand called the equalizer. cable climber with the ability to turn a crank and have up to 12" of adjustment to compensate for the thinning of the tree as you go skyward. this stand is so easy to set up and use. I am really impressed. I messed around with it more out of curiosity than anything. I was looking at the summit viper, but I really liked this one. it weighs 22lbs and packs out easily. I believe that you can order them online at certain sites. not a terribly well known company, but a good stand.
