Ladderstand. Although a hang on is a little easier to move from place to place I am starting to find it harder and harder every year to lug or pull a hang on up a tree as I get older. I like the ease of putting up a ladder stand versus a hang on not to mention its alot safer to put up a ladderstand when your by yourself than it is a hang on. Not to mention most ladder stands are bit more comfortable and have a bigger platform. I like my riversedge 15ft stealth stand. I can usually get it together put up in around 10 minutes. Which is 1/3 of the time it takes me to put up a hangon.
