RE: Climber phase?
I hate climbers..too tree specific...I spent more time hunting for a tree than hunting deer when I had a climber. senario..."wow gr8 spot to hunt...O..no straight limbless tree right here. Dang..I will go sit in that tree 30 yds away cause it will work for my climber..but not where I SHOULD be. Oh well, the climber worked and the hunting sux..but at least I have my climber!!"

With the exception of two ladder stands, all I use is climbers. I have two Summit Vipers and I love them, but I've hated having to lug them in from the start. It's a price I'm willing to pay, though. I have one "quirk" that prevents me from using hang-ons, and that is that once I've been spotted by any deer, I like to relocate, even if it's only a few yards in any given direction.That's just me, though.

I used to hate hauling my climber into the woods. Then, I got myself a Lone Wolf climber. Light and compact enough that its a breeze to go through the woods with.
Get a Lone Wolf and forgot those other big bulky stands. Just my opinion of course.

I couldn't agree more. That's why I also have a LW Assault hang-on.
