Best Bowhunting Climber?
 

I need a stand that is lightweight, and fairly large with backpacking straps and one that can hold up to 275+ pounds.

Looking for info, links etc - thanks in advance.

Summit Cobra, Viper or Goliath

summit cobra. can' t beat it. it' s light weight, easy back pack, the easiest to hook to the tree, sturdy, open at the front(no bar) and extremely confortable.

I own 3 climbers 2 summits and one API shooting star(gun and bow stand)the summits are some of the best stands out there.but my api is the most comfortable stand I`ve tryed with out going to sleep in,I can stay in it all day long.And I feel more secure in it than my summits and thats hard to beat.The shooting star has square arms rest and the grand slam and summits have angle arm rest.Square arms =more comfort.I can also adjust the seat up or down.It has 350lbs rating.I had to change the shrink wrap cains over to plastic tubing(3/4od by 5/8 id)high pressure rubber tubing works also,the shrink tubing does not last very long.Only down side to the API.THe chains grab the tree very well.Try to seat in them before u buy and u pick the most comfortable one.:)

P.S only a fool does`nt were a safty belt.

I would say tree lounge without a doubt....they are the most comfortable, safe treestands out there....you cant go wrong....check them out at www.treelounge.com

Check out the Summit Viper.......Some don' t like it for bow hunting but I do....The front bar gives you something to pull yourself up onto the platform and also gives you a place to rest your bow while hunting....(the front bar does not get in the way of my bow)You can' t go wrong with any of the Summit climbers.......
275 lbs is not a problem........

Lone Wolf climber is the best stand I have ever used.

I own a Summit Cobra XLS and love it, It is quiet, Lightweight, easy to set up and really grabs the tree well. You also might want to take a look at the new climbers made by summit that fold flat for ease of packing in and out. I think one is called the Bullet Backpacker and I forget the other name. But go with a summit, you won' t be dissapointed.
