Treestand Recommendation

[Roger Norris]

Hey guys....I need to buy a few more treestands. I have 3 Chippewa Wedge Locks that I have used for years. Easy to hang, but not the most comfortable. I will probably buy 3 hang ons, and at least 1 ladder type. Looking for COMFORT.  Suggestions?

You can't beat Millennium for comfort, a little pricy though.

[Stump73]

The millenniums are very comfortable and they have big platforms also.

I recently purchased a millenniums ladder for $200. Its very comfortable and just right for bowhunting. I left off the shooting rail so it wouldn't interfere with a bow limb. I couldn't imagine something more comfortable.

I haven't personally used a millennium, but have heard a lot of good things about them from those who have.  Big Game also make a comfy stand similar seat as the milleniums, I've sat in a buddys Big Game ladder stand and could have easily taken a nap it was that comfortable.

Roger,

I definitely can recommend Family Traditions Treestands to you. Made in southern MI and superbly built. You won't find a stronger or more comfortable stand made anywhere. You will find lighter weight ones though. I'm changing out from all my Asian aluminums to the FT stands. Thanks.

Kevin, I agree. I have had a few Millenniums and was less than impressed.  Bill

Comfort is NOT key.  I've learned the hard way that if I can't stand up and have the seat silently fold back up against the tree it is worthless.

X2 BAK.  I'll take a quiet setup any day before I have one that I can "sit all day long".

I'm a small guy, about 5'7" and I had trouble getting into the large platformed millennium due to where the cables attach.

A millennium also cost my buddy a 160"+ deer when the camera man shifted his weight and it made a noise.


Can't beat a cast stand.

Just saying

Rog, for hang on stands, Screaming Eagle.        Denny

[grouseshooter002]

 I agree with Denny. The newer "Boss" is just the ticket. Buy three or four brackets and use one stand.

Lone Wolf. Comfortable, quiet and plenty of platform for the guys that likes a little extra room.

Ameristep Outfitter. The most stable hang-on on the market, comfortable too. Get a set of aluminum Rapid Rails to go with it and you can climb any tree made !

[TradBrewSC]

I have tried a lot of them but really enjoy the Millennium 150's that I own. They are roomy, very comfortable and silent to fold up the seat using the built in bungees. Their cam system is very nice as well.

[STICKBENDER98]

I Bought a Lone Wolf Alpha and a set of climbing stick this summer so I'll have more input on those after this season.

[Roger Norris]

Good info here....thanks.

I have been hunting out of a Guidos Web for years and would never go back to a conventional stand-different but very comfortable and safe.

2x. On the screaming eagle.  Didn't know they still made them. Got mine from Paul Bruner. Years ago.

[stagetek]

I'll stick with my Lone Wolfs. XOP, run by Andre's son Cody now offers a nice padded seat That will fit the older L.W.'s.

I have been using a Leverage Speed Ladder on my last few bear hunts. Collapses for transport and not too heavy.(aluminum). Nice ladder stand and easy to move around or haul.
