Depends how much you like heights?
The stands like the Summit Viper or the Ol' Man are great for feeling secure, but as a STRICT bowhunting stand you will have to consider how you shoot out of it. Not a problem really but you will be forced to think about it.
I use the Summit Cobra XLS, and like the freedom of shooting options........you still have to consider the side rails a bit but much more freedom for a bowhunter only.

I own a Summit Cobra XLS and love it very comfortable and quiet and extermely light at 17 or 18 lbs, great for packing in. Go with a Summit, they are worth every penny you pay for them.

I own a API Grand Slam super mag supreme. It' s a great stand. There aren' t alot of choices out there for a 280lb guy like myself. I' d love to find something a little smaller and more compact for better mobility on longer hikes. No luck yet though.

Lots of my friend are using the summit stands but I own an ol' man It is extremely comfortable. I bow & rifle hunt. I was in it on opening weekend & took a doe underneath my tree. I got up, turned around to face the tree & shot straight down... no problem. Check out the video for yourself. I posted it yesterday!

Buck88, I own the Summit Viper Ultra XL(' 01 model) and I really wouldn' t consider owning anything else. The footrest is an added bonus, it definitley allows you to relax. I have taken 4 deer with this stand and have never had any trouble with concerns to the front railing. That added feeling of security is a plus!

Summit is a very good company to deal with, also. They redesigned the carrying straps on this model and made them to short. A phone call to the company and new straps were in the mail. Good luck. Cutt
