Climbing Tree Stands

[topwaterscott]

After a good season bow hunting and preparing to gun hunt second season on state land in the south east corner of the state I am getting very tired of carrying my old heavy climber in and out of the woods every trip and am in the market for a new lighter stand.  I have come across the Tree Walker web site and am very interested in these stands.  Does any use these stands or seen them in action?  All the reviews look great but I still have a hard time dishing out $350 for something I have not seen or used. 

Or if you have any other suggestions for good quality climbers.  I am hoping that what ever I buy, it will be the last climber I get.  Also I would like to buy American Made if possible, another reason I like the Tree Walker...

ill tell you what. i did a lot of research and ended up with a lone wolf. they are the best stand on the market in my opinion. very light and compact. easy to use and very quiet. simple is always best. also i feel much safer from slippage with the poly belt than a cable. definately worth checking out if you want something long term. i actually think mine is much more comfortable than a hang on stand. i have a sit and climb model. i think some gander stores have them on display. i lucked out and got a used (2 times) one for $250.

another great feature is you can adjust the angle while in the tree very easily. i wouldnt buy anything else at this point.

I borrow my friends Lone wolf every time I get drawn for Ripley and it is light and easy to use.
