ciomber Report post Posted September 30, 2014 Wondering how many guys use a treestand for the dec and jan archery hunts? Iam thinking about buying a set-up and trying it out this year. Was gonna throw some trophy rock down and a cam and see what happens. Wondering should I set up under a game trail or just off one? Any other tips including makes and models for stands would be appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used a climber this last January and I will be using one again January 1st. I have set up just off steep game trails in a nice flat area with lots of cover, gives them an opportunity to get comfortable, works for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CouesPursuit Report post Posted October 1, 2014 Summit Viper SD, my only issue with the climber is drawing my bow and hitting the front rail. It's tough to sit and draw but it can be done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
