Elkhunter1 Report post Posted May 31, 2011 I only own one stand and it is a gander mtn stand for around $80. Only used it once so far. It is good but can get tuff on the tookus after several hours.

gotcoues Report post Posted May 31, 2011 Sportsman's guide seems to have the cheapest prices. I purchased several stands around 50 or 60 bucks w armrests and haven't been disappointed at all. Their cam buckle ladder set up is very nice, I have purchased two so far and am planning on a third. Forest Service can't ticket you for this set up either. These are a bit heavy for packing them in deep though. I also have an API stand w/o armrests that is great for long pack ins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
