Default Climbing Stand

Hello all, need some opinions on a couple of climbing stands. I have narrowed my choice down to either a Loggy Bayou legend or a Summit ClearShot. Anyone have any experience with the Summit ClearShot. It appears to be very similar to the Loggy Bayou Legend.

Thanks!

You need to check out Lone Wolf. The Loggy and Summit are pretty much the same, this is coming from an X-Loggy user.

Can't speak for the Loggy or the ClearShot specifically, but I own a Summit Viper and it's the best standI have used. This is coming from an ex API and ex Lone Wolf user. Nothing wrong with the Lone Wolf just too small and uncomfortable for my tastes.

another vote for summit, though I haven't used the model you are asking about I absolutely love my viper. Never had any problems with it.

And yet another vote for the Summit Viper. I love my Viper X4 and think it is the most lightest, most rugged, and most stable climber I have ever been in (and I'm 6' and 215 lbs).

And still another. The Summit Viper is just awesome. I don't like the open front, I like the bar going across. Just seems safer to me. I know the idea is to keep the front open as to not interfere with your bow, but the bar doesn't get in the way at all. I shoot out of mine all the time and have never encountered a problem in that regard.

Wow!! Guess I need to take a closer look at summit. I realy like open front stands so I might have to go with the ClearShot??

Keep coming with the feedback. Thanks!!
