There are some great treestands out there and I'd be hard pressed to narrow it down to one favorite. The Lone Wolfs that the guys above mention are good stands but I feel that there are better options and certainly more comfortable options available. IF... I had to choose just one stand to do ALL of my whitetail hunting in..... then it would have to be the Millennium hang-on. These stands feature HUGE 38" x 20" platform, and aFULL size extremely comfortable seat that I just can't say enough about..... truly a stand you can sit all day long in. Even the gentle slope on the end of the seat means it won't cut into your legs afer a couple hours in the tree, leaving your feet asleep and froze. It's also totally silent. These stands a rock solid all alum contructionand only weight 14 lbs and the super convienent Extra Brackets mean that you can have as many stand sites ready as you wish (LW stands also have a bracket thats as nice and quick). I'd give 'em a serious look if I were you and do NOT buy any other stand until you atleast see these babies for yourself.

Now, whenit comes to blinds..... it's simple.... Double Bull is the ONLY way to go. I've owned and hunted from 3 of their models and still have the Matrix and Dark Horse and they are in a league of their own.
