I'm a large guy(6'1",275) and was wondering about bow stands that are large and comforable for biggins.Ladder, fixed, climber,ect.In late season when I'm layered with clothes it's sometimes hard to get ample room up in my stands.Any biggins that could supply info would be much appreciated.

Best climber I can think of would be the Summit Goliath. Built a little wider than the Viper XLS and is rated for 350lbs. About the safest, most stable climber you can get.

mommasboy,
I'm 6'7" and about 285-300 (depending on what's for dinner). I have been bow hunting for over 35 years. The Summit Goliath is the best climber for a big person that I have ever used, bar none! It's solid with plenty of room. I tried a friends Lone Wolf sit and climb, the stand is very solid and quiet but lacks the room for larger hunters. Each year I ask Andre at Harrisburg to make a bigger model, but no luck so far.
As far as lock on type stands, I use several types. The Lone Wolf alpha lock on is excellent, get the tall seat height option. The Non Typical Outfitter lock on type is also another of my favorites. Of course I still hang my 3 Screaming eagles each year, they are over 18 years old and still solid as a rock once set up. This year I am definently going to buy one of the Chippewa Wedge lock stands, the Brutus maximus. I saw it at Harrisburg and after sitting on it and even hanging it on the make shift tree that they had at the booth I was realy impressed. The instructional video that they gave out on this line of stands is also very informative.
Good luck and don't settle for a cheaper stand, the security of that larger stand is well worth the extra couple dollars especially for normal sized people like us.

Thanks. What kind of price am I looking at?

another vote for the Goliath. Very stable and comfortable. I think they run about 260 dollers give or take.

mamasboy,
I sent you a pm.

the summit golaith would be bestfor you ,i saw one for 229.00 on sale at woodlands world.

I'm 6'6" 275# been useing API grand slam supreme magnum and love it. It has plentof room and I like the fact that when you get up the tree it has a ratchet strap to put around the tree whitch makes it very safe and stable. It is also very comfortable I've sat all day many times without a problem

im 6 ft 265lbs and i love my new tree lounge. ive used them for quite a few years. the new one is only 21 lbs and youll never feel safer in a stand. hunting all day is a breeze with this stand and you can even sleep in it if you like.
