climber all the way

Locked/hang-on

Had never hunted with a climber until last season. Can' t wait until this year. I would have to say Climber.

Locked in wisc. I like to hunt pine& cedar trees if I can lots of cover branches.
climbers are for huntin trees with no branches.

Climber I guess...for comfort and ease of setup/use.

But a hang-on is much more versatile.

I like the portable so you can move around and for comfort

Here in my section of Ohio it is all private ground. I have several woods that I have exclusive rights to that I have hunted for years, so I have several fixed stands the I hang in proven areas. But last year I bought a climber and used it a few times. Still like the fixed stands alot better, but the climber is there for when the needs araises.

Climber, I have 3 put them in different trees where I hunt and depending on the conditions I use the one I want. Different years, different areas. If I need to move it, I just move it. Can' t tell you how many times I have moved my stand and seen or killed game that I was not seeing elsewhere.

Just one stand, boy that would make my life easy. With so many to choose from I find my self buying and trying them all. The one I would settle on if I could only pick ONE, would be the Gorilla Silverback stand. It is very light, small enough to pack anywhere, yet big enough to provided you with comfort and stability in the tree. It sets up quickly, quietly and very easily. In fact, I can get my Gorilla 20 feet up in a tree almost as quickly as my climber. If you can use screw-in steps, the Gorilla is hard to beat. I would not choose a climber because my tree choices would be greatly reduced. I can also pack the Silverback in several miles without breaking a sweat. Can' t say that about the larger climbers, or even my Summit Cobra.

Climber..you can pretty much go anywhere with them and they' re easy to move.
