My first climbing stand I bought at maybe 14 or 15. I went cheap, because that's what I had in my wallet. It was heavy, noisy, uncomfortable.. And I killed deer out of it about every year. Then I went with a summit climber( lots of model to pick from) and love it. It packs in and out easily. It's comfortable. By the best that's in your budget. The longer you can stay in the woods, the better your chances will be. And a comfortable stand can be a big help.
