has anyone used these new bracket hang on stands and how do you like them? how secure are they?

Yes I just bought one of the new stands and it is AWESOME!!!! The stands I find to be a bit pricy $180 for the one I bought but comfortable enough for an allday hunt. I hunt a bunch of ladders and brackets up around and just carry the tree stand with me in the morning that way I dont have to worry about it getting stolen.

Better check close. My Summit Copperhead pops loudly. It sucks. The stand is two seasons old.

Hanging system and comfort are nice. But, the noise sucks.

This topic is brought up every week. Did you search the forum? Once you do you will see all kinds of advice.

Summit and Lone Wolf seem to stand out. I have a Summit Viper and a Summit Goliath. Both are very nice. I like the Viper because it is a little lighter. Haven't used the Goliath yet and may switch it over to a hang on type stand in my go to spot.

lbott29,

I have a couplle of Rs Hawk stands and like them very much. They hang so easy, and are very secure. Mine is silent but is different from the Copperhead mentioned. I would also like a Rs Eagle.

Uslinfir,

Did you read the question? The Viper and Goliath are climbing stands and have nothing to do with the thread.
