RE: Best climbers for big guys?
I think Summits normal stands go to 300lbs and the Goliath is rated to 350.
Ol' Man has the Grand ol' Man that goes to 350 also.
I use a Summit Viper and I am usually 240-260 without gear, i havent had any problems with it yet.

Along with the others, I suggest Summit as well. The Goliath is basically an oversized Viper....you don't need it at 230 lbs, but it's a little roomier than the 'standard' stand.

I'm 235, and have used several climbers. Never had a problem. Just made sure the weight limit was over 250.
I bought a cheapie at Dicks last year on clearance for $39 to throw up and leave in the woods all season. It is one of the most comfortable stands I have ever used.
I also like the Old Man stands. They're easy and comfy.

are the tree lounges good for bowhunting? look like they would be really tough. i hope i am thinking of the right stand here are they the ones that are more like a recliner than a stand? Anyway i use the ol man ( the big one) for my climber.
