Im glad youre ok! Ladder stands are tricky, I was glad we had three people when @sodfather and @turkeyfeathers and I put one up for @Biz-R-OWorld annual WNY visit. Those ground spikes look like a cool idea, so does bringing an extension ladder
I wear Cabelas Revolution Fleece in Vertigo, fantastic suit. Weatherproof and tough as nails. Early on I wear a different rain suit with more green in it. I don't wear anything that isn't weatherproof as it rains darned near every day of bow or I get drenched from dew walking in
That guy stinks at setting up his climber. I can do it quickly and quietly, most can once theyve done it enough times. I do love the feeling of knowing im getting in a permanent stand the next morning though, easy peasy lol
Thirdhand stabilizer straps keep the top and bottom connected as you climb and then you cinch them down when youre at height and the stand is absolutely rock solid. Best $20 you can spend for a climber
I'd love it if someone did and started a thread. Ive thought about it for years since reading Eberharts books but it seem to be the same amount of tree prep as just hanging a stand
Had a fun morning at Hawkeye today in the pouring rain, with@Turkeyfeathers and @Taco_Tim Turkeyfeathers takes his handle quite seriously Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
