Well, I'm 64 and still using my climber. At times I feel like hell and get cramps and tired, but I still love it and adjust. God willing and no medical problems I hope to be doing it for another 10 years or so. They all might not be from 20 feet up, but as long as I can pull a string and be out there and see deer, well hell, it's all gravy. As the add says, Just Do It!!! As I see it, every day from here on out is a bonus. So many of my troops are like old men and can't walk across a room. I feel blessed.

I was thinking about this the other day. I am now 53 years old and hopefully at least 10 more "good" years. When my fatherinlaw saw 63-64 he started going less and less due to losing some interest and having some health issues. In my case it will be up to my physical health cause I know the mind will still want to go.;)

We are a healthier bunch today than yesteryear and are living longer too. At 59 years of age I hope to be still climbing trees for another 6 yearsor as long as I am fit to do so then resort to ground hunting from blinds as long as I can pull 60 lbs and have a place to go.
