tree stand climber?

You couldn't’ pay me to use a climber again! Pisses me off that I wasted over 20 years in one when I should have been set up on the ground. Portable tent blind on the ground is the way to go. Ten times safer and warmer. No more freezing your bag off all day. No more swaying trees to try to aim from. Now you can move, scratch yourself, open your thermos and crap and
piss in total comfort without the fear of spooking the deer. No more bloody noise climbing up and down the tree. The biggest con to climbers is that 75% of the time you cannot set up at the best spots due to lack of a suitable tree. I sure don’t miss sitting cramped for 14 hours hanging off a tree in solid pissing rain, soaked to the skin in wet raingear.

hahahh fair enough fenelon! its funny because ive been using a pop up for the last 3 years, i think ill still be putting a popup somewhere, but i did want to give this thing a try. the only thing i dont like about having a stationary tree stand is i cant move, although if i dont end up liking this thing i might just try and sell it and then move on to a traditional tree stand.

just hate having the same scenery for the whole week sometimes lol. especially if youre having absolutely 0 action.

Whatever climbing method you choose please use a harness and make your own safety line from climbing rated rope, do not buy the made in China 'Hunter Safety Systems' rope, they do not use the correct figure eight knot and some just use staples. Don't trust your life to Chinese staples.

I suggest using 9mm kernmantle rope girth hitched to the tree with a figure eight follow through knot (its easier than it sounds) and connected to the hunter with a prussic loop to a caribeener, if you can carry the weight use a rope long enough to rapel down if you get into trouble with the climber.

this! ^ i also do not trust the Chinese crap. and im not sure why those harnesses are passed as them in any hunting stands.

i work at heights so i know the real basic stuff to be secure, was thinking of just using a lanyard but im worried about the noise. might just go your route thank you !

Am I the only one shaking my head on the attached
Savage hunting add? What the hell were they thinking. A woman wearing dun olive clothing with zero orange, carrying a set of antlers on her back. That puffy jacket will no doubt cough out a nice bark of goose down when the .308 round punches through her chest. Darwin award at its best!

Thats exactly what I thought. Not a lot of thinking gone into that advertisement.

I've got a Summit aluminum climber and its pretty comfortable but certainly doesn't climb as well as my buddies Lonewolf climber
the summit is great for gun/crossbow hunting but not the best for bow hunting. I much prefer my saddle system for bowhunting
