What kind of tree stand do you hunt out of? And do you like it?

i like a lean up 2 person stand cause they give you a lot of room. i put a little burlap on the sides for a little extra cover.
a climber is always good in bow season. a little more mobile and i can get up higher and out of view.
and i get in a 4' x4' box stand during the still rifle season sometimes. depends on how nasty the weather is.

use a little of everything- rivers edge hang on stands, strong built ladder stands, enclosed tower stands for rifle hunting and my favorite for bowhunting is my summit climber.

Climbing Stand; I use a Amacker Adjuster magnum, 500lbs limit and adjusts as you climb. Sits comfortable also.
Box stand without colseable windows. Too lazy to make any.
Wood ladder stand with large platform.
Had a Ole Man ladder stand but it was just a little flimsy for me(I am a big Ole Boy) so I sold it.

It depends on the weather and location. I prefer a 15' ladder stand. The one Brandon was talking about, the 2 man stand, is real nice. I prefer to be able to hear everything around me, if possible.
I also use a tri-pod and have lock ons and box stands. The lock ons are a little uncomfortable and you can't hear much from the box stands but, they are nice when it gets cold! ;D

ive killed 3 deer out of a 2 man lean up stand with a little burlap around it. and ive watched 50 or more eat or cross in front of me in that same tand and just let them go. my climber is a lot more comfortable but its more work to take in and out and set up and all that stuff.

I have a 4' x 8' fully enclosed box stand thats10' to the floor it's for when my 3year old son goes with me. We got two out of it this year It looks more like a club house on the inside! Ive got two 17' ladder stands two 10' ladder stands(all home made 2" angle with mesh platform)And one climber dont have a clue what brand but I like it, it folds flat ,its light and once you hook up to a tree there is no slipping(thats the main thing) planning on building two more shooting houses this year that way Ethan( my son) and I will have more than one stand to sit. Would like to get a couple of the two man ladder stands for when he gets bigger but I think I have plenty of time for that! sot
