I agree with ya. With 25+ stands placed on my property already, several of which are 2-man ladder stands with shooting rails and the remaining stands being top quality hang-ons, there are plenty of regular stands to hunt from. I'm extremely proud of the fact that my kids have already accomplished much in the outdoors (probably more than many less fortunate hunters ever will) and to as much of an extenet as children can... they've spent hours in miserable IL weather and scored on several impressive trophy class deer and turkey. As I've said, I agree with you, I can't totally spoil 'em.... but it seems that the deer and turkey sure do! LOL!
