You might be right , statistically, but if so, probably more has to do with the getting up and down the tree w the climber. Once im up there and set, I feel alot more secure than on a ladder; just my preference, I guess.

Wow; that , actually, looks fairly sound structurally. Too bad cuz he obviously invested some time and effort into it.

Man I think a ladder stand is much safer than a climber ,
I have multiple straps on my ladders and I’m attached to a safety line before my feet leave the ground
Reason why i dont is that a climber is not a semi-permanent structure, so, doesnt get get exposed long term to the elements.

I worry about ladder stands, too ; any year-round erected structure will , with time, break down and will become less safe . Last year, a guy in our club fell out of a ladder stand thats had been up around 4-5 yrs due to strap failure. Id rather, just use a climber and bring it out w me at the end of each season!!

Yeah, its close, but 2 , probably.

Agreed; unfortunately, though,nothing will come of it , im sorry to say

Wow- cool! Forgive me, but couldnt tell from footage, but whats a Mus?

Saw this advertised the other day and I am intrigued; however, my fear is , that, bein a product of Hollywood, that the plot will support the leftie/woke narrative and portray MAGA and the right as evil villains and the Left as the reasonable, virtuous, Democracy-loving Patriots which would make my stomach turn

The family that runs Dicks are big time players in the Democratic party. Kim Meyers ran for congress against Claudia Tenney a few years ago, a libtard woke Democrat through and through. The Democrat party members and platform is the bastion for groups that are anti hunting, animal rights and anti gun, it is pretty easy to read between the lines.

Surprising that theyre so woke , yet own Dicks , a hunting and fishing store .

Dont really blame them as its too difficult to do business with guns in NYS now with the political climate the way it is. Too bad, really.

Im currently debating a Libbie dude on the NJ forum who (Surprise!) has a dreadful case of TDS and believes the #1 issue this country faces is income inequality
!!
Doesnt matter WHEN ,WHERE OR WHAT time frame were talking about, some of these Lefties are SO classically trained and ideologically entrenched that the Chinese Army could be in the midst of launching an invasion-through our open souhtern border, nonetheless- and , literally, at their front door and they would say that, anyway!! unbelieveable

Yes, but I am out and about all the time so it isn't an issue.
I hear you, but there are a few issues w/ that:
1) time issue- Ive had cams placed as much as a mile in before; pain the a#% sometimes to make the time.
2)Frequency of visits = educating the local herd as to your presence, conditioning them to avoid the area?

We usually use perch minnows....but get just as many with a little gob of worm. When the weather is real cold we used to use an ice dot with mousie grubs on them, tied above a minnow.
With a Bobber ?

You guys are aware that the Wokester Crowd absolutely DESPISES Easter now and are trying to make it more irrelevant , right? As a Teacher, I see this more and more with in the Holiday schedules for the school year. This year, for example, Easter only had an extra day off-WTF? You wait and see though: with the elevation of Juneteenth, they will start ending school a week earlier in NY now-mark my words!!

They must have shot that scene further west , then; either that, or they imported one into NY for the movie lol.

What do you use- Shotgun?

Id like to try to Flyfish for Walleye this year; although its not the msot effective means , it is doable and would be rewarding to get a few on some deep running patterns.
