RE: First Hunt out of Summit Viper
Muzzy, if your stand has the mounts for the footrest, it' s a very smart investment to puchase one.That 6- 8 inches makes ALL the difference in the world, when it comes to stretching your legs out.
As far as quietness, the only trouble that I have found is when walking to the stand. The cables seem to make alot of noise on mine.Good luck! Cutt
