RE: How do you hang a tree stand?
The best way I have found is to wear a full body harness with the teatherstrap around the tree and attached totherings at yourhips. This allows you to stand on your quick sticks and have both hands free. Then you attach a rope to the stand and climb up your quick sticks. When you get to the top you pull the stand up to you and attach it to the tree.
One more quick note, I also take extra ratchet straps and use them to secure the stand to the tree. This makes the stand extremely solid!!
