Yep,I saw that the price was steep.The thing that attracted me was that you could easily move from one stand site (tree) to another and all you would need is tree steps.No weight and no noise.The alternative being that to mimic this one would have to use several stands,already set up,and the price of many stands starts to add up too.Also,when you leave stands out,they tend to dissapear.I could see that stealth and portability would be a plus with a system such as this.But it just seemed to be too good to be true.Oh well,back to the drawing board.Thanks[&:]
