I have the gun hunter with the bowhunter
adapter. I havent quite mastered a quiet
setup with this stand but once its attached
to the tree you cant beat it. The problem
I have is the bolts that attach the back
brackets of the seat portion and climber portion,
tend to bend as the stand torques when
climbing. I constantly am straightening
these bolts before each use. (anybody else have this
problem? This stand is excellent for an ALL Day Stand but thats
about all i use it for now as the setup is just too noisy and cumbersome. I just purchased an API Superstar
and , over all, I like it much better. Its super
quiet and very quick and easy to setup.
