I already have been bombarded with AT guys PMing me wanting to trade their sit and climbs for my blind..why would I want yours?
Inever siad you did.

I said it would be a futile endeavor, though (in not so many words).
It's either that or sit on the couch. It gets cold where I hunt, NC doesn't see the cold we get. 3 lbs of added weight that doesn't benefit me and makes for a less manuverable treestand is the obvious I am pointing out
Whether or not it gets "cold" here isn't up for interpretation. I consider iamyour huck (CO Native) a good barometer of what "cold" is.....and he froze his nuts off, here in our temps.....lol.
Treestand capabilites (and they're accompanying trade-offs) are why they make several versions of the mouse trap. I'm comfortable with why I chose mine.....as you are. Nobody's "wrong".
