RE: which treestand
My preference is a Tree Lounge, it is a little on the heavy side, but I hunt on private land and dont move them around much. Comfort to me is #1, most stands I cant sit in for more than 2 hours " I have some lower back issues", but I can stay pretty much all day in the Tree Lounge due to its design " just like my recliner", and I can always cat-nap without the worry of falling out!. Whatever you buy though, dont buy the ELCHEAPO, make it home safely after the hunt, also invest in a good safety vest!.
