I use lock ons as permanent locations as well as mobile locations.

I like the fact that I can put a lock on up as qick or almost as quick as aclimber but not limited to the tree I am able to hunt.

Like this tree,the best tree in the funnel,If I were using a climber,I would have had to set up directly over the main trail or 40 yards off it.

For your complacent hunter, hang ons are great. For your aggressive and skilled hunter, climbers are worth their wieght in gold.

With a climber, you have the option of moving, or changing location at the last second. Youcan "follow" the deer if needed. With a hang on, even if you scouted an area hard, sometimes things change and that stand becomes useless.

I use ladders, hang ons & climbers, but I think my climber is my most valuable tool.
And why can't you move a hang on?
