Default RE: What are the best tree stands

Lone Wolf, Chippewa WedgeLok, Timber Tall,TreeWalker. My actual preference is Lone Wolf but they are pricey. Each manufacturer has its own pros and cons and fans and adherents.
My suggestion is to study, read the reviews on all the forums you can find, check out their web pages, look at the pictures, go to the sporting goods stores and view the samples, call the manufacturers up and talk to them. I do and have found most of them will be very truthful and helpful and understanding even when you buy anothers brand. It is a highly competitive industry, safety oriented, and price point fixed according to manufacturers cost.
Your main concern should be:
1. SAFETY
2. Size/Weight/Portability
3. Type of Stand-climber? lock on? ladder?
4. Legality of use in your hunting area

Good luck and happy shopping. Pat
