RE: Hang-on vs. Ladder
get hang on, best hang on ive ever sit in for the money is the remington 300 mag treestand. check em out at bass pro for i think 100 bucks, sometimes on sale. i got two for 60 each onsale last summer. Extremely comfortable, safe, perfect for bowhunting i.e. no bars, or obstructions in the way. cant go wrong with these. but as Michael said it is a heavier stand than alot of those 300 dollar ones, so it really isnt for moving around often. i moved mine last year 3 or 4 times throughout the season without problem.
