    I have them, added wire aiders to the first two and amsteel daisy chain to all of them. Even still you will need to pack six to get any kind of real height unless you have NBA legs. They are a good product. I carry them in my hand and they works better then strapping them to the stand.

    How high do you get with the cable sides and mini sticks?

    I get around 15-17 ft with 4 and cable aiders on the first and last stick. Overall I like them they are more likely to kick out due to there size. I also space them out to the max.

    I’m thinking next season to run cable aiders on all 4. Wish they sold a set of 6

    Did you have to get longer bolts to add aiders?

    I’m hoping they’ll be my go to next season. They are super light and low profile. I like my XOPs full sticks but they get heavy when I’m hauling them over a mile in public. And LWCG is way too expensive. Can’t see justifying that one with the wife

    Eastern woods outdoors... as mentioned above. They came with the new bolts and washers. Everything fit perfect
