    I'll tell ya boys, If you suffer with cold hands, get you one of these. Stays hot for about six hours and is rechargeable. They are about $25 on Amazon and they also charge your phone [​IMG]

    Tomorrow is the day for me, gonna hunt hard tomorrow and saturday with the temp drop. I plan on throwing the stand on my back and moving until I find some fresh sign...itll be public land so anything that comes walking by is gonna get an arrow through it (to be fair, thats also the case for me on private land..)

    Good call man. Definitely practice with it, plant your boot against the tree when stepping into it. They are prone to kicking out very fast if not use to it. I use them on all my sticks and a great way to gain extra steps!

    You got a picture of yours dude? I’m thinking of using housing and some camp tape for the step.

    Well, as my luck usually goes, some old guy in jeans and a blue shirt walked basically right under as a doe was 10 yards in front of me. "hey buddy, whatcha doing", "oh just taking a walk, sorry". I swear the forces are working against me.
    I'm at work now, hooray.

    Don't have pic with me. I just did single step on all sticks. I put a piece of clear tubing inside the webbing to keep it open for my foot. The multiple step aiders felt a little to unstable, really got watch what your doing. It's easy to climb, but climbing down them is where it can get interesting.
