take a look at these climbers and rank them from first to last according to what you think about them

It would be more helpful if you merely listed the stands and did away w/ the links....

the last one you posted looks like it would be hard to hunt out of with a bow, but i've never tried it. The gorrilla i'm sure is a good one, for a great price. I'd go with that one

I have a stand very similar to that Loggy Bayou you're askin about. That style seat is EXTREMELY uncomfy to my legs. Sorry but I don't have comment about the others.

im thinking gorilla or loggy i would get the guide gear but weight would be an issue

I would say go with the gorilla cuz its the lightest.

But i just got the new summit open shot and that thing is really nice and its only 14 pounds.

I'd go with the Gorilla. It's made VERY similar to what I use now,
an Ol' Man Vision. It's very easy to setup and take down, and the mesh seat is comfortable. I always use it in the "footrest" setup, even when I'm hunting with a rifle. It's light-weight, and easy to get around with.

Go with the Gorilla. I got the same one off of sportsmans guide and I love it. I was told they make noise but mine is extremely quiet. Cant go wrong at that price either.

well i believe im gonna go gorilla and i talked to my mom about it considering its more than i had.she said she didnt want me falling anymore.She said shed pay the rest of it (i have 70) because she overpaid a one of my medical bills on my heart procedure.She over paid by like 1100$ so thats a nice check to get in the mail.So when that check gets here i get to get my climber :D

I like the style of the Guide Gear climber the best. It'll be the most comfortable for longer sits where you can kindof "recline". It's also open up front for close in shots.

But the gorilla is lighter and the sling seat is pretty comfy. You just won't have the "recliner" feel that the guide gear would.

The loggy seat will pinch your but and back after not too long.

Can you tell I'm all about being comfortable on stand? :D

Hope you're feeling well!!!

WEAR A HARNESS!!!!!!!!

I have a Gorilla treestand, not a climber but a hang-on. It is quiet and tough as nails. I even ran it over one time with a four wheeler, not a scratch on it.

Matt/TN 09-11-2006 04:51 PM

RE: climber advice
 
yeah i also have a gorilla hang on

Go with the loggy ledgend w/o the cuishion seat. Just get the mess seat. Also just get the single stand. Don't wast your money on the climbing aid.
