L/W don't sponsor me... I pay for my equipment like everyone else. Nothing is as quiet as cast stands. Period. You only need one... Guys pay a thousand dollers or more for bow, but get cheap with hollow tube stands with welded creaky joints and popping expanded metal... If you hunt like most people and put stands up in spots and l;eave them there, yea, go cheap... But I hunt mainly mobile and only need one stand and sticks. They go in and out with me on every hunt.
