Ol Man went out of business sometime last year. Looks like Gorilla bought or acquiredthe rights or patents to the Ol Man stands.

They call the climbers "Greybacks" and the fixed stands "Expedition" series.

RE: Ol' Man Tree stands

I love my Ol'man stand over all others. The Gorilla stands look fantastic in fact, I bought a hang on with the mesh/net seat and love it as well. I can't say much for the climbers because I don't need another but if they are as much like my Ol'man as they appear to be, they are fantastic as well.

Ol' Man is back in business! A local guy in JAy, FL purchased the rights to it and is building them again.
