Not that long ago and I'd suggest you research a subject before you make a comment like that! Of the 30+ stands I just looked at online at Cabelas and MidwayUSA there is only
one single or double ladder stand that still isn't made of steel just like I mentioned. It is a stand called a "Leverage" that's made of aluminum and is $300 through Midway. Why do you think these stands are all so heavy, as they sure wouldn't be if they were made with aluminum materials like you stated!
