moog5050 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Do you have to push the skirt out of the way to climb in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks to be a great set up though .. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreeneHunter Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Looks like a great setup ! Good Luck ( don't fall asleep !) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtTime Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 I like the set up. I hope you kill whatever deer you like that comes your way out of that stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squirrelwhisperer Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Looks very cool. I have to look into one of these. Are they very heavy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked my son to put the chair , the cushioned rails and the skirt on the stand so it would air out and the deer could get use to it . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could just see my pack getting me hung up. lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nyslowhand Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 That looks super tall for a tripod stand. Aren't most 6-8" tall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marion Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Do you have to push the skirt out of the way to climb in?There's a little zipper that opens a "hatch" so you can climb through if it's anything like the way my ladder stand was setup years ago. I fidget a lot in the stand so I got one of those skirt things for it#ThankYouForLessOverzealousModding #WeDemandUnlimitedLikes#WeDemandADislikeButton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farflung Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 number of years ago, I went in to maintain my tripod. got up in the stand and started moving the homemade skirt around. There was 2 wasp nests in it. Got stung twice. Slid down the ladder and ran off. Came back a couple of nights later and gave them a bath in insecticide. Very exciting. My big covered stand has a bunch of bees in it, need to go and hose them down in the next few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasteddie Posted September 26, 2020 Author Share Posted September 26, 2020 Hauled some exercise equipment to my youngest son's home near Honeoye . I thought I would swing up past my oldest son's place in Honeoye Falls to see how it would be shooting out of the tripod stand . Took my bow , a couple arrows , quiver and and a haul rope with me . Grabbed one of the cheap foam targets that I gave my grandson and headed to the tripod stand . since the rail is about 4' high , I have to have the bow out and over the rail in order to shoot . This movement could spook the deer so maybe the rail should come off until Crossbow season . Not sure what to do . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdbing Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Maybe use a box to stand on so you clear the rail with the bow. Or pull back some of the screen and shoot from a seated position.Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am working on a platform to be able to shoot over the rail . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasteddie Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 Made a platform 22"X30"X6 1/2" . Put it in the stand and took a few shots at 15 , 20 , and 32 yards . Worked fine . Now I need some deer to cooperate . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
