RE: API Treestands vs. Others(o'lman, lone wolf etc)
I have the API GS Bowhunter, but would go with Summit. It bites into tree better, doesn't have shrink tubing that breaks off and needs replacing every year, has a better carrying strap that doesn't fall off your shoulders, doesn't need stabilizing strap put on that just takes time and is noisy, and no pins to lose. My buddy has a Summit, and I will get one myself when the budget allows.
