RE: Climbers.
Just remember that the Bowhunter stand is not a " Sit and Stand" climber. You have to use a lot of arm to get up the tree. It is a good stand. Also, Bass Pro is having a sale on most of the API stands, so you may want to look there if you are ordering or one is in your neighborhood.
I like the Shooting Star stand from API. The rail in front folds down for bowhunting to make a foot rest and fold up for a shooting rail during gun season.
