Mentioned this before... I'm trying a new one this year. Got it based on what I've come to desirehaving used one for years and notgetting what I need out of the ones I've used.It's the Northstar treecat archer. Have preformed mock hunting situations with it,packed it, and even packed it using a mountain bike, something I plan on doing this year. It all worked out well.Will climb big to small trees and will adjust to tree diameter up to 7"'s with just a squeeze of the hand. Uses wider belts that stay in shape and don't hang up on the tree. Is a sit and stand climber, very easy to use, and requires no stirups or belts for your feet on the base. Very comfortable, and the bar folds under the seat if you want it out of the way. Folds very flat and sets up with just the push of a pin and locks securely. Once in position it has a rope system that always stays attached to it to cinch it up tight and is very easy to use and secure. It is hands down a great deal quieter than any I've used. The only thing it needed is some como-ing up.
