Default Climbing stands w/ Trational Bow?

I was courious as to what kind of stands you guys use with your long trational bow. I don' t have any trouble shooting my recurve from my lock-ons but have a hard time shooting from my climbing stands due to arm rest are seats being in the way. Do any of you use climbing stands with your trational bows?

Does Lone Wolf make one for us full-figured guys? Weight rating of at least 300#, preferably 350 or more.

I' ve currently got a Summit Goliath, and have shot from other stands that have a rail. It' s a pain, but doable--you just have to practice from the stand, and watch what you are doing. I had a Summit Revolution for a short time--it was perfect for bowhunting, and super comfortable--but the weight rating was too low for me (they mean it on that one--it ain' t made for 300+ lbs). A bit of a bugger to learn to climb with, but after a couple times it' s not a big deal.

Chad, Lone Wolf does make a stand for us " bigger guys" . I' ve been looking into buying one. The Alpha Sit & Climb. http://www.lonewolfstands.com/sit_climb.asp

Best of luck.

Thanks Jeramy--I like the looks of it, will definately check into that one when I am ready for another. When (if) you get one, I' d appreciate feedback on it.

Kip, how about " great big lard-butted overweight redneck types" ? Oh well..... at least you didn' t mention my hat.........

Thanks for the feedback, I just wish the Lone Wolf stands were not so expensive.
