RE: Summit or Api

Recently picked up a Summit Goliath X5 climber. Awesome stand!! Being 6'-0" and 255lbs, the extra 2" of width on the top section, as well as being rated for 350 lbs, sold me on this stand. You "can" actually nap in it, it's that comfortable. Weight wise at 21 lbs, it's not to bad to carry into the woods. I also strapmy backpak and jacket to the stand, so it does get somewhat heavy, but still not that bad. I love that front bar. Sure makes climbing easier as well as making shots safer by being able to lean against it while shooting. The only problem, if you'd call it that, was the thought of taking a shot behind you. Your lower cam might smack into the either of the arms of the top section if you not careful. So, just set up facing in the direction that you expect to take a shot from. Two thumbs up on the Summit Goliath X5!!!
