RE: Climbing Stand Noisy any Suggestions?
My brothers 2 climbers have been modified with some heavy acrylic washers between the metal components....he swears by it. Read it in Outdoor Life years back, I guess.
I have 3 stands that all make some noise of some sort. I sprayed "Great Stuff" expandable foam in my square tubing where there were openings and also filled my one set of climbing sticks with it. Minimal weight was added.
I let my gun/bow hoist rope with caribeener clip down one year and it hit the tubing on the sticks, and one year falling ice that melted off the stand was hitting the steps. Now you'd hardly hear it if that were to happen again.
