I'm sick of crappy stands everywhere...
I'll only buy ladderstands anymore with; a flip up seat, arm rests, shooting rail, and a big full standing platform, like 20x30"
I can't think of the stand/brand I like....Gander carries them, they have a regular and an XL, ones a tad small the other is a tad big. Both are some of the nicest stands I've ever used. They're made in Wisconsin I believe but can't think of the name...maybe woodsman XL...? 17' I think
