Default How Crooked is Your Tree?

And I don't mean family...

Spent the better part of an afternoon putting steps up a HUGE pin-oak Sunday. The tree is in a deep gully. I've got to go up about 35' to 40' just to get 20' to 25' above the parcel that I want to hunt. 'Bout the time I get to where I thought I'd put the stand (as spotted from the ground), the darn oak tree is crooked.

It looked straight from the ground, but the site that I wanted to put the stand is tilted forward a good bit. Put the stand there and suffer the tilt, put the stand on the opposite side, enjoy comfort but not the shooting opportunities.... What about splitting the difference & have some "Side-ways" tilt?

Well - any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
