old-time

Has anyone tried this stand? They look like quality stands, but they are very inexpensive. I am cautious about products like this. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks

i bought one last year and I sold it this year and now I have a Summit Viper.. the stand was ok as far as comfort.. wasnt the best but it was very loud going through the woods and it sqeeked on me one time right before I was going to shoot and it screwed me up.. IMHO i would save the money and save and extra $100 and get a quality stand

Josh,
What made it so loud going through the woods? What squeked on it? Thanks for the reply.

well going through the woods the bar that you use for a rest/mount your gun was loud going through the woods and got in the way.. the whole stand sqeeked while in a tree..it was the seat or something

Josh,
Thanks for the advice. I will probably stay away from this stand. I own a summit climber, myself. I like the stand alot. It can be a bit loud attaching the cables and I wish the armrests were flat instead of sloping, but for the most part I am happy with it. My father was looking for a cheap but quality climber and the Hunter' s View looked like a descent stand, but looks can be decieving, obviously.

Thanks

one other thing.. the cable that goes around the tree was loud also as you climb scraping bark.. you had to literally support it with your hands while you climbed
