    Just need to ask, if you guys are leaving the stand there why not just install a hang on?

    if the deer pattern alters in way shape or form you can grab the climber and move it 50 yards or wherever the movement moves too. (its just easier in my opinion)

    unless you know the property well enough to know the deer movement set up the ladder or lock on then!!

    I do that also. It's nice to have a climber or two to move around.

    I have my lock on set up and leave it out at night. As I am climbing down at night, I just take my climbing sticks with me so the only thing left is the stand. If someone is desperate enough to shimmy up a tree 18-20 for my stand, guess they need it more than I do. Plus I have a trail camera hidden close by so if anyone does try it, I should get a pic of them.
