I have the Big game two man stand with flip over gun rest and wide platform..To me its a stand you dont want to move around much its very ,very heavy and will need 2 to 3 prople to hang it up..I leave mine up in the same tree year after year..Nobody in their right mind would want to steal it..Its that HEAVY..As far as hunting from it.Its very roomy its almost like a couch in a tree. Make sure to take seat out or wrap it with something to keep it from getting wet it works like a sponge and you want know it until your soaked.It is safer than a climber but as far as mobility, stick with the climber.Unless you like backpain
