    I have stands anywhere from 17-24'. Mostly depends on the kind of cover I have. I use a 16' stick ladder and then if I want to go higher I use screw in steps to get me the rest of the difference.

    where have you been the last two weeks i think there has been 5 threads on stand heights:p;).

    No, but seriously for me i keep my hang on stands in the 15- 20 foot range, only because i hunt very flat land, and i dont need to go any higher. Ladder stand im only limited to 13ft tho.

    Depends on the tree and type of stand. When I use my climber I tie my bow rope to the bottom and when I feel it tug I know my feet are at 25'. Lok-on's are stratigically placed to optimize concealment. Ladder stands are well, ladder stands. The ones I have are tight aganist the tree, not the traditional set up for ladder stands. Then natural ground blinds. So zero to thirty feet would have been the quick answer.
