I use the strap-on Buck Steps from Summit and I like how easy they are to hang and use.If the tree has a twist in it or you want to slowly make your way around the tree you can off-set the Buck Steps as you go up the tree and it is easier to mount a hang on stand,they don't damage the tree's and you have a good flat step to use for climbing!I just wish they would have put camo colored straps on them instead of the black ones!
