Viper and Bullet Backpacker Difference
Hey all. I am trying to decide between the new viper and the bullet backpacker. The backpacker folds flat, but the viper is the new model and does not fold flat. By looking at pics I cannot tell a difference otherwise. Did they improve the viper some other way? Is it not a improvement? Thanks.

RE: Viper and Bullet Backpacker Difference
I just bought the Bullet last week at cabela's in Hamburg PA. I had never used a stand before and after reading the manual ( yes I read it ) and wathing the video , I was up a tree 15ft in about 3 mins. I'm 6'3" and weigh 230 and the stand at no time has felt shaky. I've been using it all week. Plus I like the fact it packs flat and isnt very difficult to pack in.

Slugman,
YOu must be much more clever than me. I bought the Bulletback Packer last year. It's comfortable and safe but I found it hard to prepare to pack. I hav ethe hang of it now but it took me a while. I do love it though and have sat in it from dark to dark before.
